"In August as usual, Ronaldo's pruning crew did an excellent job of pruning. They do not just cut the top off the bushes but actually shape them. They also do a great job of edging and they make sure there is not too much mulch piled up around the trees. They are experts in weeding as thee do not just weed wack the weeds but actually pull them out one by one. When they were finished, there was not one weed left in the yard. This year they also got rid of some poison ivy."

"I literally could not write this review fast enough! Manolos Landscaping was beyond fantastic!!!! The price was UNBEATABLE! They charged me 1/2 of what everyone else quoted. They were completely professional, prompt courteous, and fast. My property was a complete disaster! The weed, marsh, and vines were consuming everything. I could not believe how fast and fabulous everything looked in only 2 days. If all of that was not enough, a small rosemary plant got pulled out accidentally. They even replaced this. How kind and thoughtful! I wholeheartedly recommend Manolos Landscaping! If I could give them 10 stars I would! I am beyond pleased with the work that they did! I had never hired landscaping before but I am glad I did, they were fabulous."

"The company owner recommended that instead of grinding the tree stump he would dig it up. I am glad for his recommendation. I can plant a new tree in the same spot. The work was done promptly and they cleaned up the area. The price was right."

"I contacted four landscapers through Angie's List. Two never responded; one got back to me but couldn't do the work for weeks. John's responded quickly, popped by to survey the job (without me even knowing!) and was able to schedule it within the week. Two men came by and worked for three or four hours on the bed. It was too tough for a tiller, so in the end they used an industrial aerator to loosen the dirt/roots, then raked it out. They did a great job, were very careful of the surrounding garden decorations, and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves. The job came in right on estimate, despite it being harder than they thought."

"My in-laws have been sick and their front yard had become really overgrown. I wanted to help them get a fresh start, but we couldn’t get the saplings and weeds out ourselves. We hired KJAY and it was worth every penny! They cleared and hauled away all the overgrowth in the front yard in just a few hours. Victor is quick, professional, and very nice to work with."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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

A spot herbicide for weed control is effective at killing crabgrass and not grass, but it depends on the type of herbicide. Always check the label to ensure that your herbicide is safe for grass but tough on crabgrass. Overall, spot treatment is ideal because it puts fewer herbicides into the soil, which can damage the soil. If you’re wanting a natural remedy to crabgrass that also won’t harm surrounding grass, you can also hand-remove crabgrass or even pour boiling water or 5% vinegar over crabgrass as a spot treatment.

Landscaping fabric can only help to prevent weed growth in the short term. It's not an ideal long-term solution because dirt will eventually make its way on top of it, causing weeds to sprout. These fabrics can also leave microplastics in the environment for many, many years, so pulling weeds using one of the methods in this guide as soon as you see them is a better long-term prevention strategy.
