"Fish's was prompt to respond and give a quote. The gentleman was very polite and honest. We had one outfit quote me 3x as much as Fish's. 2 other companies where close in price but my gut was to go with them and boy am I glad I did. They showed up as scheduled and busted butt all day. We just purchased our home which the landscaping was neglected for years! We went from worst in the neighborhood to looking like everyone else just beautiful! They removed 2 stumps, weeded and mulched also removed a ton of yard waste. I highly recommend Fish's!!! I usually do my own landscaping but going forward Fish's will do it for me!!"

"It went very well!! We had bought a car off somebody and they worked on cars and it must've been their "work car" because it smelt of dirty car oil and there were stains it was just not pleasant to be in until..... we hired Ashley she really got in there and I could say I finally felt comfortable sitting in there. She did a stupendous job!"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Ultimately, pulling weeds vs. spraying them depends on what’s happening in your yard and your personal preferences. Manual weed removal doesn’t introduce any chemicals into your landscape, targets specific problematic plants, produces immediate results, can be free if you go the DIY route, and is inexpensive with a weed service if you only have a handful of weeds. On the other hand, spraying is often preferable for severe weed infestations and situations involving difficult-to-pull weeds because it treats multiple weeds at once, is usually more effective long-term, is less time-consuming, and costs less when done by a pro.

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.

Lawns with steep slopes can benefit from having quack grass. Quack grass's long roots and runners can help to prevent soil erosion on hillsides. Additionally, bird lovers may enjoy the fact that quack grass seeds are an attractive food choice for their avian friends.
