They do great work! My previous lawn guy was falling behind and i have a event at my house and need my lawn mowed. I called and talk to Eric and he was able to get it done the next day. After he was done I noticed he also pulled some weeds. Found my new lawn care guy.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Ensures effective treatment using targeted techniques to maintain healthy gardens.

Yes, organic herbicides and natural prevention methods reduce chemical use.

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.

Weeds may grow back when pulled out if the root is not completely removed. Invasive weeds can regrow from just a small portion of remaining root, so using a weed-pulling tool can help ensure you remove the entire root. Weeds may grow back faster if roots aren’t fully removed, and incomplete removal could cause them to spread as well.

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.
