"Ramiro was nice and showed up when he did he would. He even let me know the day he was supposed to do the work that he was delayed and rescheduled. However, once he was completed, I noticed some dead twigs in a few bushes and some weeds still in the mulch area. I text him to stop by, he said he would but never showed back up."

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."

"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

Buffalo grass is not a dense grass, so weeds can grow between the buffalo grass plants. However, as long as you don’t overwater your lawn, weeds have a hard time growing. If you do notice weeds, you can use granular herbicides that are safe for buffalo grass in early and late summer.

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.

Each type of weed comes with its own control methods, but stopping the seed spread is the first step. Grazing, mowing, and hand pulling can slow the invasion. In some cases, selective herbicide is necessary to stop a persistent weed from overtaking an area.

Foxtail self-seeds and dispurses them among other grasses and pastures. The seeds can spread by wind and by attaching themselves to animals and humans. Seeds will germinate in their new location and become a new plant, which continues the spread of foxtail. Unfortunately, foxtail spreads easily, making it difficult to remove unless it’s caught quickly.

Landscaping fabric can only help to prevent weed growth in the short term. It's not an ideal long-term solution because dirt will eventually make its way on top of it, causing weeds to sprout. These fabrics can also leave microplastics in the environment for many, many years, so pulling weeds using one of the methods in this guide as soon as you see them is a better long-term prevention strategy.
