"We have been using JBC for mowing and maintenance for several years and have been pleased with the results. Last fall we had Jeff redesign/refresh our landscaping. He did a spectular job. This spring we are enjoying watch as our backyard becomes more spectacular as the season progresses. The colors, textures and variety of plants/shrubs that were used gives the yard a whole new and dynamic look. This spring we redid the front of the house landscaping. Looking forward to watching this area develop as well. Jeff knows what works in this area and by season. He is a landscape architect as well as providing a great lawn/maintenance service."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Each season’s climate influences approaches needed for effective suppression.

There are organic herbicide options that will kill grass but not flowers, including white vinegar or a dish soap solution. Commercial selective herbicides can also target grass over other plants, but read the instructions carefully to avoid damaging your garden. Herbicides that kill grass but not flowers usually include ingredients like clethodim and sethoxydim. Otherwise, your best bet will be to weed by hand.

Dandelions, while hard to control and widespread across the country, are not typically categorized as noxious. Yellow starthistle, however, looks very similar to a dandelion and is highly damaging to local plants and invasive across the country.

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.

Technically, dandelions aren’t bad for your lawn, and they don’t directly kill grass. In fact, they appear in areas that are nutrient-deprived, and their long taproots can loosen the soil and bring nutrients closer to the surface. 

However, dandelions do spread quickly, and they can take over your lawn, eventually crowding out grass. This is why a healthy lawn is the best defense against dandelions.
