"By far THE BEST landscapers in the area. Fred and his crew new exactly what to do. My yard was over grown with weeds, tall grass, debree.. etc... I was overwhelmed with the prices many had quoted me. Then I received a call from Fred and he took care of everything. Not only did and his men tend the yard he trimmed my hedges at no cost. The following week we had been talking about cutting down 9 trees I had in my yard as well as my pergola. he gave me such reasonable prices for everything and while I was at work received a call that he had indeed came and tended to the yard. I was so pleased but could pay all the money up front. for I had thought we would do this in steps. Fred was so generous and actually allowed me to pay him the following week. I He is also an electrician and stripped the wires providing lights in my pergola so I didn't have to call the light company. My yard had never looked better. I can wait until spring time so I can began my garden with the help of Fred and his crew. I HIGHLY recommend working with him. He's not only reasonable with his prices he's generous and really caring. I know if ever I or a friend needs work done I'm going to call them. Thank you again Fred my yard isn't where I want it but I know with your help its going to be great.!!! Oh and they also lay down cement for fire pits which is my next project!!"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

Each type of weed comes with its own control methods, but stopping the seed spread is the first step. Grazing, mowing, and hand pulling can slow the invasion. In some cases, selective herbicide is necessary to stop a persistent weed from overtaking an area.

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 tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.
