"I started a few years ago with Escutia’s Lawn Care, including mowing, adding grass to a compost bin, blowing and collecting leaves . He does much more. I have had him deliver and place compost and work it into the soil. I’ve had him clean up yard waste and remove it. I also have him tend to weeds in my garden. He turns my water on and off, and does sprinkler repair on my underground watering system. He also replaced timer for the watering system. I also had him find someone to replace a section of my fence. Basically Escutia’s will do pretty much any lawn/landscape project/repair that you would want to do! Escutia’s is reliable and trustworthy. I would recommend Vilmer to anyone needing his services."

"Great job! The work Dan did was at a rental house so I was not able to be there when he did the work so he sent me pictures of the completed project as he went along. I especially appreciated the fairness of his pricing. I already have him set up to do another project for me this fall."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

The best time to hire a weed service company is in the early spring. This allows them to apply a pre-emergent weed killer that stops weeds from taking root, making maintenance for the rest of the season much easier. Following the initial spring application, a monthly service through the summer and early fall is a good idea for ongoing weed control. These regular treatments, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be sufficient to maintain a weed-free yard. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may offer better rates on contracts signed before the busy spring season.

Vinegar is known to be a contact herbicide, which means it kills the foliage it comes in contact with. Because of the high acetic acid concentration, horticultural vinegar kills weeds and grass more effectively. However, keep in mind that high amounts and multiple applications can affect the soil by lowering the pH levels.

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.

Professionals employ protective measures such as covering or temporarily relocating plants, minimizing chemical usage, and carefully planning construction routes to avoid damage. These precautions preserve the integrity and appearance of the landscaping during projects.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.
