"Andrew is very personable and accommodating with any details asked of him. He is prompt and efficient with his work. His cost for his services are very reasonable as he does a very through job. He does all mowing, string trimming, and removes all grass clippings from sidewalk and driveway. I would highly recommend his lawn care service."

"I own a seasonal dwelling on Lake Ontario and was not happy with my former lawn care service. Looked Happy Grass up on the net, and HIT THE JACKPOT! Mathew and Jonny are incredible! They can do any job asked about. And make great suggestions. My lawn is pristine looking. I had them plant grass for me when I had taken down a couple of trees. Grew beautifully. They even came to water for me when I couldn't be there. They mulched my back garden area, and planted the plants I had chosen...looks incredible! They are also men of many talents. They made me a new step for my back door and a new cement pad for the back door. Fabulous job. I honestly don't know what I'd do without these guys...they have made my summer home living much easier and the improvements are definitely visible. I would rate them a 10+ if it allowed me too. They are also working for many of the surrounding seasonal homes around my place, and everyone raves about their work and dedication. Kudos to Happy Grass~"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.

Mowing a lawn will, unfortunately, not get rid of clover, and it may even encourage it to flourish. Let your lawn grow to a healthy height of over 3 inches and then set your mower blades no lower than this level. Higher grass will cut out the light that clover loves and discourage it from spreading.

Pulling weeds once per month is typically often enough to keep most weeds at bay. But in general, it's best to pull weeds as soon as you spot them to prevent deep root growth and slow their spread. To make it easier, plan your weed pulling after rain or after the sprinklers run so the soil will be nice and wet and the weeds will be easier to pull. If you notice moss accompanying weeds, make a plan to remove the moss immediately to prevent damage.
