"I really appreciated the quick turnaround provided by this business. The first two services he was very prompt and responding and taken care of the service request. Not sure what happened, but for my third request, he said he was coming twice and twice did not come, and now I have not heard it from him again after following up. On the second visit, he missed a pretty decent section of the front sidewalk in between the street and the sidewalk and the sidewalk and the fence area. For hiring, I would be sure to be specific about what area areas will be covered for that visit. I wish him the best and hope that everything is OK for him. He is a very nice person."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

A spot herbicide for weed control is effective at killing crabgrass and not grass, but it depends on the type of herbicide. Always check the label to ensure that your herbicide is safe for grass but tough on crabgrass. Overall, spot treatment is ideal because it puts fewer herbicides into the soil, which can damage the soil. If you’re wanting a natural remedy to crabgrass that also won’t harm surrounding grass, you can also hand-remove crabgrass or even pour boiling water or 5% vinegar over crabgrass as a spot treatment.

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.

Mowing is one of the most important ways to maintain your lawn because it encourages grass to grow horizontally, creating a fuller, more uniform yard. On top of mowing your lawn, you’ll want to routinely fertilize your lawn, water it regularly, and take care of pests the moment they arise. 

There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can pull up weeds at the root.

When hiring a lawn aeration professional, they may suggest other related services to get your lawn looking lush and fabulous.
