Customers say: Quick response

"Reliable performs our weekly lawn maintenance. Oscar also removed a 35 year old dead tree from our front yard. This included totally removing the "complete stump". The company to whom he sub-contracted this stump removal left a very large pile of debris. When we expressed dissatisfaction with this, Oscar came out and completed the sawdust removal, completely leveling out the area. We are very satisfied with him and highly recommend."

"Highly recommend JBO Landscaping. Ebe, is the owner and he is personable, professional and educated on his craft of landscaping. We had them out for a spring cleanup, weeding, mulch and trimming here in the year and had them back last week to do a summer trimming of our shrubs. My wife told me they were the best landscaper we ever had do our trimming. Not to mention, when they schedule an appointment they always show up on time. We have recommended them to several friends, neighbors and family and they loved the results."

"We originally needed a damaged tree removed but the city of Wheaton removed it. We then needed the stump ground out and some branches removed from a different tree. We contacted Fernando's and his son came and gave us an estimate. We were pleased with the estimate and contracted them to do the work. They were very professional, got the work done quickly and completely cleaned up our yard. I would recommend Fernando's Tree service to any one that needs tree work done."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Vinegar cannot tell the difference between weeds and desired grass types; it kills everything it touches. Only use a vinegar or vinegar-based solution if you are relatively confident that you can navigate around the plants and grasses you want to keep. Also, don’t spray vinegar on a windy day, or it will blow onto other plants.

Some of the particular herbicides that work best to get rid of nut grass without killing the grass include Halosulfuron-methyl, mesotrione, sulfentrazone, and metsulfuron. A herbicide like glyphosate would kill nutgrass, but it will kill nearby plants, too.

No, definitely not. Pulling weeds by hand is the single most effective way to remove them because you're eliminating the entire plant—roots and all—so it won’t have a chance to grow or spread. Setting time aside a few times per week to pull weeds can keep them at bay. If the number of weeds gets overwhelming, then you can resort to other methods.

Whether a one-time spray treatment to control mosquitoes is enough depends on multiple factors. Often, you’ll notice a big difference after one application. However, mosquitoes are likely to return if you don't reduce attractive standing water habitats. This usually takes four to eight weeks if it’s still prime mosquito season.

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.
