"Green ML does an amazingly beautiful and thorough job on our lawn. They also installed roughly 900 feet of post and rail fence at a very fair price and did it in just a few days! I highly recommend Green M L Outdoor Home Services with no reservations."

"The pro did a fantastic job, efficiently done. He exceeded my expectations. I have milkweed growing in my yard (for Monarch butterflies') and did not want them mowed down. The pro made sure they did not get mowed done. I highly recommend Freedom Property Management, LLC!"

At the tender age of 14, my parents decided to call-it-quits, my mom decided to move from the city to the country. It was this move that my fascination with lawn care, ensued. Having to be totally responsible for the upkeep of a(n) acre worth of land. Ever since then, I actually enjoy turning an undesirable parcel, into that which is desirable!

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Foxtail self-seeds and dispurses them among other grasses and pastures. The seeds can spread by wind and by attaching themselves to animals and humans. Seeds will germinate in their new location and become a new plant, which continues the spread of foxtail. Unfortunately, foxtail spreads easily, making it difficult to remove unless it’s caught quickly.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

The best time to fight crabgrass with pre-emergent herbicide is when forsythias tend to bloom. In the mid-Atlantic region, this is usually between April and May. Even if you're late to apply the herbicide, it’s effective as long as the crabgrass plant has fewer than five leaves.

Due to its slow growth, Bahia grass does not generally take over weeds. In fact, the opposite can be true. Young Bahia grass is susceptible to being taken over by weeds. 

Likewise, in the cool season, Bahia grass goes into a dormant state that can allow weeds that thrive in early spring to get the upper hand. If you want to prevent weeds from taking over your yard, remove them by hand or apply a Bahia grass-friendly pre-emergent herbicide to your lawn before weeds have a chance to appear.

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.
