"I am very pleased with the work BG’s did for us. I told Gary that my lawn had overgrown since our last man moved away. He came out promptly and did his assessment and was very fair with his pricing. I decided on a major cleanup to start and then biweekly Maintanence of the lawn. The cleanup was excellent which included trimming cutting and blowing. They also do shrubbery day small trees. As a bonus, they even hauled away an old fridge I had in the garage! I highly recommend BG’s Lawn Care. They are friendly and customer service oriented. I am looking forward to working with them on future projects. Philip M"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Burning is not a recommended method for controlling foxtail grasses. In a large pasture scenario, the fire moves too quickly through the weeds to effectively burn and kill the seeds, meaning they will resprout eventually. If your lawn is overrun with foxtails, it’s best to consult a lawn care professional for suggestions on how to permanently remove it from your property.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

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.

If you spray a DIY vinegar solution that contains high salt, it can disrupt the soil's structure and make it difficult for plants to grow. That's why it's vital to avoid spraying vinegar solution on areas where you are trying to grow plants and flowers. When using a mix of vinegar and soap, some say you can plant a few days after the vinegar dries. 

Yes, suggesting companion planting and mulching to minimize new growth.
