"He did a great job and was very fast and efficient. Mowed the lawn, did the edging, and even blew the grass clippings off the sidewalk. Great service and price, I paid 95 dollars for my 14,500 sq foot yard. The work took just over an hour. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"We highly recommend Simply Lawn Care DSM. Our Project was clearing 3 years of weeds, bushes and trees on a large 3 level terrace garden. We knew underneath all the debris was a beautiful garden. Justin and crew removed 3 pickup loads in 2 afternoons. Not wanting to harm the desirable plants and flowers they listened to us and asked questions throughout the process. We now have the beautiful garden back. I can’t thank them enough for taking on this tremendous project and doing so professionally and with great customer care."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can pull up weeds at the root.

Weeds can grow through rubber mulch, but it depends on if you removed all the weeds in your garden beforehand. Weeds already in the soil can grow even when using rubber mulch. However, that doesn’t mean that your garden will be littered with rubber and weeds, but it does mean that the occasional weed might still pop up. Another way you can increase your weed suppression is by using landscape fabric as a second layer. 

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

Mowing your grass regularly, especially if you’re mowing close to the ground, can help kill Johnsongrass. Frequent mowing helps limit the spread of Johnsongrass and can even deplete carbohydrate reserves in rhizomes over time. The more time you leave in between mowing, the more likely Johnsongrass is to regrow and take over your lawn. 

Yes, weeds will grow through pea gravel but you can prevent this during the installation process. Install a weed barrier underneath pea gravel and swap it out every three years to keep weeds at bay.
