"Jorge responded immediately to my request for an estimate on lots of weed removal and several shrubs to be removed. His estimate was reasonable and we decided to go ahead with the project. With the amount of weeds we had I thought that the job would take at least 1/2 day. Jorge arrived with a two man crew and they tackled the job. Within two hours all weeds and several shrubs had been removed and everything was cleaned up and taken away. Jorge and his guys were very polite and did not waste any time in doing this job! We were quite happy with the result and are going to use Jorge for more projects. I am so glad that I went with my gut feeling and hired Jorge to take care of a job that I thought was overwhelming."

Customers say: True professional

"I highly recommend MC Tree Service. They arrived promptly with a very large truck and trailer containing all the equipment needed. I had been suffering for 2 weeks with a very itchy and widespread rash from poison ivy or plant based allergy from my yard, which was overgrown with tons of weeds, including poison ivy. Fernando and his team member very energetically got rid of all the weeds and ivy, working non-stop from 7:30AM till after 3:30PM, wearing professional protective uniforms. They made borders and beds around my nice plants, removed all the leaves from under the deck, and totally transformed my yards. Now I don't have to worry about myself or my cat accidentally brushing past or walking on poisonous plants. This service didn't come cheap, but I desperately needed the work done and am very glad I spent the money and got lucky choosing this contractor."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

All herbicides come with risks, but you can control and mitigate risks by discussing your options with your weed service company before application. Some companies use milder or sustainable herbicides more times per season to control weeds rather than one to two herbicide sprayings annually. You can also ask your professional about pet-friendly and kid-friendly services. In most cases, though, you can wait a few days after the application for the herbicides to soak into the ground, at that point they shouldn’t pose a risk to you or your family.

Herbicide application, manual removal, and landscape fabric are common approaches.

If you spray a DIY vinegar solution that contains high salt, it can disrupt the soil's structure and make it difficult for plants to grow. That's why it's vital to avoid spraying vinegar solution on areas where you are trying to grow plants and flowers. When using a mix of vinegar and soap, some say you can plant a few days after the vinegar dries. 

Mowing your grass regularly, especially if you’re mowing close to the ground, can help kill Johnsongrass. Frequent mowing helps limit the spread of Johnsongrass and can even deplete carbohydrate reserves in rhizomes over time. The more time you leave in between mowing, the more likely Johnsongrass is to regrow and take over your lawn. 

The main problem with crabgrass is that it produces thousands of seeds that can remain dormant until the following season. To get rid of it, you have to remove existing plants before they have a chance to spread seeds and stop old seeds from germinating.
