After meeting with quite a few pros, I went with Creel’s Tree Service. The work they provided was very professional, timely, and high quality as well as being a good price. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a tree service professional.

The initial clean-up work was a little overpriced. James Gallow is a good individual to work with and his normal lawn mowing and weed eating are reasonably priced.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Pulling weeds can spread weed seeds and disturb the soil, leading to seed germination. Pulling weeds can also trigger growth in weeds that reproduce through their root systems—disturbing the roots without fully removing them may cause more weeds to grow from the roots.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

They compete for nutrients and water, potentially stunting desired plants.

Yellow patches, poor growth, or widespread weeds indicate a need for treatment. Soil testing can confirm nutritional deficiencies that require intervention.

The most effective way to eliminate quack grass without killing the grass nearby is to overseed the area, keep the seed wet until it grows, mow often, and regularly fertilize the area to promote healthy grass that can choke out the invasive weed.
