"They did a great job, and we ended up hiring them for other landscaping works. They always do a great job with fair pricing, show up on time, respond timely, take time to clean up thoroughly after work is done, and are conscientious. We plan to hire them for the next project."

"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."

"Anthony and his co-worker showed up, and did a GREAT JOB ! Cleaned up me front and backyard lawns and weeded out the flower beds along the side of the house. They are very professional and because of SOCIAL Distancing he talked with me through the whole process of what he was doing so I could see for myself ! The project was top notch. Not only did they consistently show up on time, but they finishedthe project early and were willing to reschedule the final walkthrough multiple times to accommodate our schedule. Final project turned out great!""

"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."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Johnsongrass and crabgrass are invasive weeds that can overtake your lawn. Crabgrass is a low-growing grass most often seen in lawns, flower beds, and vegetable gardens. While you may find Johnsongrass growing in your lawn, it will also grow in pastures, crop fields, and the edge of the road. Johnsongrass is much coarser than crabgrass. If left alone, Johnsongrass can grow up to 8 feet tall. 

Yes, vinegar can be an effective way to kill individual dandelion plants to help in the hand-removal process. However, vinegar can also kill turfgrass, so use a targeted spray.

Adding vinegar to your lawn increases the acidity of the area, which can kill quack grass present above the ground. However, putting vinegar in your yard will also kill the grass. Unfortunately, the below-ground quack grass rhizomes remain very much alive in the presence of vinegar and will soon sprout again.

It usually takes between two weeks and a month for weeds to fully die off after you spray them with herbicide, but they will start to wilt within the first week. Different weed sprays produce different results, with some working more quickly and effectively than others. Similarly, some weeds are killed more easily than others. Consult your weed removal pro for an exact timeline based on their weed removal method.

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.
