"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

Yes, you can typically combine liquid aeration with other lawn treatments. However, follow the specific product's instructions and consider the compatibility of treatments. In most cases, liquid aeration can complement fertilization, overseeding, or weed control programs. Combining treatments strategically can address multiple aspects of your lawn's health and appearance simultaneously. Always read and adhere to the guidelines provided by the product manufacturers to ensure safe and effective application.

Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.

Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You’ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.

Yes, dandelions are considered perennial, broadleaf weeds.

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. 

There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:

  • How often will you apply herbicides?

  • Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?

  • Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?

  • What other lawn services can you provide?

  • Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?

  • Are you properly licensed and fully insured?

  • Do you have any customer references I could speak with?
