What kills weeds in the grass fast?

• <div><p>The quickest way to kill weeds is to burn them, pour boiling water on them, or pull them out by hand. Each of these methods works instantaneously. Beyond that, using <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/vinegar-grass.htm">vinegar for grass</a> works in a couple of hours, as do herbicides you can buy at the store. The slowest way to kill weeds is to starve them of nutrients and sunlight with mulch or fabric covers. </p></div>

Q: Are dandelions bad for your lawn?

• <div><p>Technically, dandelions aren&rsquo;t bad for your lawn, and they don&rsquo;t directly kill grass. In fact, they appear in areas that are nutrient-deprived, and their long taproots can loosen the soil and bring nutrients closer to the surface. </p><p>However, dandelions do spread quickly, and they can take over your lawn, eventually crowding out grass. This is why a healthy lawn is the best defense against dandelions.</p></div>

Q: What types of fertilizers or treatments are recommended for lawns?

• <div><p>Choosing fertilizers: slow-release for steady nutrients, organic for eco-friendliness, or specific blends for soil deficiencies or grass types.</p></div>

Q: Are DIY lawn treatments as effective as professional services?

• <div><p>DIY solutions often lack precise formulation and distribution, potentially leading to lawn damage. Professional treatments optimize results with targeted applications.</p></div>

Q: When is the best time to hire a weed service company?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to hire a weed service company in the <b>early spring</b>, as they can apply a pre-emergent weed killer to stop weeds from taking root altogether. Your weed control company might suggest signing a contract for monthly service, which is a good idea for ongoing treatments, but getting that first application done in the spring is the most important. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may bump up their prices for contracts signed in the following spring.</p></div>

Overall a good experience. Communication could be better, there was a day after the service where I didn't hear anything and had to reach out myself for the results of the inspection. But besides that great bussines would recommend!
