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."

"Elmer came exactly on time to give me a quote. He gave me a good price which I readily accepted. He then came back, hours later ( as promised ) to do the work himself with his assistant. They did a very good job at mowing my lawn, pulling out really big weeds, and trimming the overgrown bush. They also put back whatever weed cover i put at the edge of my backyard. Really clean work. He ll be back to spray non toxic weed killer around the yard."

"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!""

"Jose was responsive, courteous, and efficient. We originally hired him for a yard cleanup but the job expanded to cleaning out a large bed of poison ivy and replacing 2 shrubs. Jose and crew not only did a great job but they cleaned up their work and took away some rocks and other debris. Jose also gave us referrals for other service providers, much appreciated. We will certainly hire him again."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

It’s not legal to intentionally damage a neighbor’s tree. Even if the roots of a tree encroach into your yard, if you damage or kill a tree that belongs to your neighbor, you can be held liable for the damage in most cases. Since herbicides can spread through the tree, causing damage to the whole tree and not just the roots that are on your side of the property line, you shouldn’t poison your neighbor’s tree. The other downside to this method is that if the tree dies, it can fall onto your property and cause more damage, so herbicides are best avoided in this circumstance.

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.

Weeds can grow through rubber mulch, but it depends on if you removed all the weeds in your garden beforehand. Weeds already in the soil can grow even when using rubber mulch. However, that doesn’t mean that your garden will be littered with rubber and weeds, but it does mean that the occasional weed might still pop up. Another way you can increase your weed suppression is by using landscape fabric as a second layer. 

Glyphosate and other non-selective herbicides can kill orchard grass, but they will also kill the surrounding plants. Also, not all areas allow the use of glyphosate due to its environmental impact—which the EPA describes as a "potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic plants and birds, and low toxicity to honeybees." Consider mechanical removal to target the plants specifically.

The hydroseed mix—known as a slurry—helps grass seed take root in many ways. Water combines with the mulch, allowing the grass seed to stay moist while grounded in the soil. The extra fertilizer then provides the boost the seed needs to flourish. In just a few weeks, you'll be ready to break out the lawnmower again.
