"I m an out of town owner and prefer to hire local as much as possible. Labonte s Lawn Care has been easy to work with. I ve checked on the property regularly and talked to neighbors. I hired this business for regular mowing and overall maintenance (weeding shrub trimming etc) I ve been completely satisfied with the work and the price was more than fair. Highly recommend."

"My wife and I had some horrendous super weeds take off in our flower beds . All around the house, and out of control crabgrass in our ditches. I hired Nick and we made a game plan on what was most cost effective and best for our circumstances. We live next to crops, and have a dog. Obviously have water ways needing treatment. So a lot of little nuances going on there. Nick came back with proper research and sprayed accordingly to each situation. Then his crew and him removed the excess vegetation and even som small trees that had come in by squirrels or birds. We have a set game plan for the future of the project and bigger plans next year! He was even able to work around my hectic schedule for what was best for our household. Thanks Nick and crew!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

White vinegar does not kill ivy on trees because its acetic acid concentration is not high enough to overpower it. Vinegar is an effective herbicide for weeds and other plants, but not for the strength of most ivies, including poison ivy and English ivy. You should use an herbicide to kill ivy, such as one with glyphosate, imazapyr, or triclopyr.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

We don’t recommend DIY tree trimming for a few different reasons. First, the tools required to trim a tree can be costly, up to $1,100 or more, for the ladders and specialized saws needed. 

Safety is another concern, especially when working with more mature trees. As a guideline, you should only DIY tree trimming when branches are less than two inches in diameter. Any more, and the safety risk becomes too high, which could lead to catastrophe. For this job, it’s safest to let a tree-trimming professional assess the work needed.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.
