"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."

"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."

"It was a large front and back yard and the grass was over 6" tall. There are also tree roots which makes it hard to mow. The gate is only 36" but they managed to get a wider mower through but ideally, a riding mower would be perfect. They trimmed around edges which was good. They had to be careful around the above ground soft sided pool. They did a good job but the price was $450.00 which I thought was high. I might have gotten other bids if the grass was not so high. I did not opt for weekly mowing at $135.00 as I am living on Social Security and my budget does not allow for that so I will maintain it myself. They cleaned up nicely and they showed up on time so I would recommend them. It is my problem that this economy prevents us from spending where we might like to. I appreciate the job and Angi for checking up. Thank you."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Yes, Johnsongrass is a hard weed to kill. It has the ability to grow fast and spread even quicker, so it requires a detailed plan and thorough application to eliminate it. The best plan of action is to kill Johnsongrass while the weed is establishing itself by hiring a lawn care professional or following the steps above. 

It’s not legal to intentionally damage a neighbor’s tree. Even if the roots of a tree encroach into your yard, if you damage or kill a tree that belongs to your neighbor, you can be held liable for the damage in most cases. Since herbicides can spread through the tree, causing damage to the whole tree and not just the roots that are on your side of the property line, you shouldn’t poison your neighbor’s tree. The other downside to this method is that if the tree dies, it can fall onto your property and cause more damage, so herbicides are best avoided in this circumstance.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

Very carefully. You should be cautious when using any of the above methods, as any one of them could lead to you accidentally killing desired grasses and plants. However, there are selective herbicides that can target certain plants over others. Look for a product that only affects the type of weeds you want to eliminate and spares the plants you want to keep.

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.
