"He Roni and his team did a great job. They communicated with me throughout the planning. Were very much involved in what I needed down. They were quick, fast and cleaned up all debris when it was over. For a job that I thought would be several hours it was half of that! Such a great job done I'm actually planning to continue to use Tropigala Tree Service as my yard people/ connection! Great job well done!"

"We were super impressed with the quality of work, professionalism, and responsiveness of Angel and his team. Even with the COVID-19 outbreak going on, Angel was able to make an initial visit to survey our property and discuss projects within a day of sending an inquiry, and was professional about maintaining social distancing throughout the discussion. We had a quote in just over a week (even with the busy season just picking up) and were able to get started on the projects after a bout of rainstorms passed. Angel's team worked swiftly and professionally, and did a beautiful job helping us clean up our property. We had several garden beds that had not ever been properly edged and had fallen to disrepair before we moved in last summer, and they now look better than we could've imagined. They were able to clean out weeds and dead/dying plants, move a few plants around to rebalance the garden, trim bushes back, install a butterfly garden, lay new mulch, even out and fill divits in throughout the yard, and install a small fence -- all within 2-3 days of work. As noted, Angel runs a really professional team, and did an amazing job sourcing high quality plants, mulch, and fencing at very reasonable and competitive prices. Angel is highly communicative throughout in terms of giving heads up about the project status (especially when things change, like having to push our start date due to inclement weather). After having some bad experiences in the past with contract yard work, I have had my faith restored by Angel's team and would happily work with them again, and encourage anyone looking for high quality, fast, professional work to give them a call."

"It went really well! He was courteous, straightforward, and efficient while cleaning. The price was fair and he had all the equipment and supplies ready, so I didn’t have to worry about anything. The weather was bad, so I gave him a tip for the trouble, which he really appreciated."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Glyphosate and other non-selective herbicides can kill orchard grass, but they will also kill the surrounding plants. Also, not all areas allow the use of glyphosate due to its environmental impact—which the EPA describes as a "potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic plants and birds, and low toxicity to honeybees." Consider mechanical removal to target the plants specifically.

Some of the particular herbicides that work best to get rid of nut grass without killing the grass include Halosulfuron-methyl, mesotrione, sulfentrazone, and metsulfuron. A herbicide like glyphosate would kill nutgrass, but it will kill nearby plants, too.

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:

  • How often will you apply herbicides?

  • Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?

  • Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?

  • What other lawn services can you provide?

  • Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?

  • Are you properly licensed and fully insured?

  • Do you have any customer references I could speak with?

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.

Typically seasonally, but tailored schedules depend on local conditions and plant types.
