How do I hire a reliable weed control company?

• <div><p>There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:</p><ul><li><p>How often will you apply herbicides?</p></li><li><p>Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?</p></li><li><p>What other lawn services can you provide?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?</p></li><li><p>Are you properly licensed and fully insured?</p></li><li><p>Do you have any customer references I could speak with?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Which lawn treatments are the most important?

• <div><p>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, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-water-lawn.htm">water it regularly</a>, and take care of pests the moment they arise. </p></div>

Q: How much mulch do you need to prevent weeds?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: What are some common lawn aeration add-ons?

• <div><p>When hiring a lawn aeration professional, they may suggest other related services to get your lawn looking lush and fabulous. Prior to scheduling any of the following services, you should consult your lawn care pro about the order and timing of multiple projects to ensure best results for your grass. These services might include:</p><ul><li><p>Lawn mowing</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/overseed-lawn-guide.htm">Overseeding or reseeding your lawn</a></p></li><li><p>Fertilizing</p></li><li><p>Dethatching</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between Johnsongrass and crabgrass?

• <div><p>Johnsongrass and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-get-rid-crabgrass.htm">crabgrass </a>are invasive weeds that can overtake your lawn. Crabgrass is a low-growing grass most often seen in lawns, flower beds, and vegetable gardens. While you may find Johnsongrass growing in your lawn, it will also grow in pastures, crop fields, and the edge of the road. Johnsongrass is much coarser than crabgrass. If left alone, Johnsongrass can grow up to 8 feet tall. </p></div>
