What will kill nutgrass but not grass?

• <div><p>Some of the particular herbicides that work best to get rid of nut grass without <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-kill-grass.htm">killing the grass</a> include Halosulfuron-methyl, mesotrione, sulfentrazone, and metsulfuron. A herbicide like glyphosate would kill nutgrass, but it will kill nearby plants, too.</p></div>

Q: What kills weeds down to the root?

• <div><p>There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/controlling-weeds-yard-and-garden.htm">pull up weeds</a> at the root.</p></div>

Q: Does landscaping fabric prevent weed growth?

• <div><p>Landscaping fabric can only help to prevent weed growth in the short term. It's not an ideal long-term solution because dirt will eventually make its way on top of it, causing weeds to sprout. These fabrics can also leave microplastics in the environment for many, many years, so pulling weeds using one of the methods in this guide as soon as you see them is a better long-term prevention strategy.</p></div>

Q: Is baking soda good for your plants?

• <div><p>Like sugar, the common household staple baking soda has uses in the yard. Baking soda boosts your plants to resist pests, fungal growth, and more. So, baking soda is good for your plants in certain instances, but exercise caution, as using too much could kill your plants. It&rsquo;s great for hunting for pesky weeds, but not great for tending to a sensitive garden.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to pull weeds or spray them?

• <div><p>Ultimately, pulling weeds vs. spraying them depends on what&rsquo;s happening in your yard and your personal preferences. Manual weed removal doesn&rsquo;t introduce any chemicals into your landscape, targets specific problematic plants, produces immediate results, can be free if you go the DIY route, and is inexpensive with a weed service if you only have a handful of weeds. On the other hand, spraying is often preferable for severe weed infestations and situations involving difficult-to-pull weeds because it treats multiple weeds at once, is usually more effective long-term, is less time-consuming, and costs less when done by a pro.</p></div>

Excellent service. Knowledgeable, good communication, professional and quick service. I was very pleased with this company and would use them again. They fixed an outdoor drainage problem. Called them on a Sunday and it was fixed on Monday.

It was much more than a power washing project. They stained the back deck after power washing, too. They were amenable to my additional requests including taming a backyard overgrown with weeds, ivy and very tall grass. There was a lot I asked if they would do. They were reliable and got on...
