I started JD’s Lawn Care because I wanted to build something of my own while providing a service that people genuinely need. Growing up, I learned the value of hard work and taking pride in what you do, and lawn care gave me a way to turn that mindset into a business. I noticed that many homeowners either didn’t have the time, equipment, or energy to keep their yards looking the way they wanted, and I saw an opportunity to step in and help while creating a steady source of income for myself.\n\nStarting JD’s Lawn Care was also about independence. I didn’t want to rely on someone else to determine my schedule, my income, or my future. By running my own business, I’m able to take control of those things and push myself to grow every day. Each lawn I take care of is a reflection of my work ethic and attention to detail, and that motivates me to keep improving.\n\nAnother big reason I started this company is the satisfaction that comes from seeing immediate results.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.

Jet washing can wash away weeds without bending or kneeling to pull them. However, the results will likely be fleeting because the weeds will return unless you use a stronger method that takes them out at the root. Use a jet washer for short-term weed removal, but use a stronger method if you want to get rid of weeds for good.

Weed control applications usually cost around $100 each for a standard-size yard, and most professionals charge between $30 and $60 per hour for manual weed removal. Your total is affected most by the size of the weeded area. Some weed service companies offer weed control treatments, selective herbicide spraying, and manual removal and upkeep as part of a package, costing around $600 annually. You might pay less if you hire the same company for other lawn services, like flower bed upkeep, aeration, overseeding, and pesticide application.

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.
