Q: What kills clover but not the grass?

• <div><p>Purchase a selective herbicide that targets clover and similar weeds but doesn't take out your grass. You can also keep it from growing with corn meal gluten or remove clover from your lawn manually at the start of the season as part of your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/lawn-maintenance-checklist.htm">lawn maintenance checklist</a>.</p></div>

Q: When should I fertilize my lawn for the best results?

• <div><p>Apply fertilizer in early spring and late summer to promote robust growth through the seasons.</p></div>

Q: Can you just sprinkle grass seed on a lawn?

• <div><p>Technically, yes&mdash;and you may have some successful growth&mdash;but this isn&rsquo;t the ideal way to fill in sparse areas. By clearing leaves and debris, amending the soil, and aerating it properly before you lay the seeds, you&rsquo;re providing the most ideal conditions for them to germinate.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to fertilize my lawn?

• <div><p>On average, the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-fertilize-your-yard.htm">cost of lawn fertilization</a> is <b>$250</b>, ranging from <b>$80 to $400</b>, depending on the size of the lawn, its current condition, additional treatments, number of applications, fertilizer type, and location. Keep in mind that labor, tools, and equipment make up 80% to 90% of the total cost of lawn fertilization. Additional lawn treatment options include:</p><ul><li><p>Lime treatment: $100&ndash;$150 per 1,000 square feet</p></li><li><p>Crabgrass treatment: $30&ndash;$80</p></li><li><p>Grub treatment: $30&ndash;$80</p></li><li><p>Mulching: $150&ndash;$400</p></li><li><p>Dethatching: $265&ndash;$295</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Is Bahia grass hard to grow?

• <div><p>Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won&rsquo;t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. </p></div>

They are very reliable, always do good work. If the lawn doesn’t need mowing they are just fine with not charging us for that week. They remove snow for us as well. If we call them they will come out right away. They have great customer service.
