"Mr. Silva did an exceptional job getting my dad's house presentable for sale. Services included edging, weeding, moving, trimming, and spreading bark mulch. Price was the best for those quotes received. I am very impressed with his work!"

"They were able to come to the house to work within about 30 minutes of first contacting me! My parents house has a forest of weeds surrounding it and some extremely overgrown bushes. They did a fantastic job removing everything and spraying the tiny guys that were too small to pull out fully. Would definitely hire again."

"Tony has worked for us for about five years. He tends to our yard weekly, and year-around. Tony is more knowledgeable than any of the yard maintenance workers we have used. He is dependable, timely, honest and professional. Because we have a large, complex yard, he has a complex job to do. We have 25 hydrangeas, many flowering bushes, numerous varieties of trees and more than 20 roses. There are parts of the yard that are hardscape, some barked-in areas, extensive flowerbeds, and three grassy areas. Tony mows, edges, trims, blows debris, and removes it on a weekly basis. During the winter months, he blows leaves (and we have a lot of them!), prunes, thins, and removes the debris from our yard. Because of his pruning knowledge, he prunes azaleas, arborvitae, and many other bushes, He also saves us additional tree service costs by thinning out larger trees. Tony knows what he is doing in all yard care areas. This year he aerated our grass, removed moss, re-seeded and fertilized our lawns. We are picky about our yard, and Tony is the guy we turn to if we have need of yard care expertise. We highly recommend him."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Dandelions, while hard to control and widespread across the country, are not typically categorized as noxious. Yellow starthistle, however, looks very similar to a dandelion and is highly damaging to local plants and invasive across the country.

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.

A spot herbicide for weed control is effective at killing crabgrass and not grass, but it depends on the type of herbicide. Always check the label to ensure that your herbicide is safe for grass but tough on crabgrass. Overall, spot treatment is ideal because it puts fewer herbicides into the soil, which can damage the soil. If you’re wanting a natural remedy to crabgrass that also won’t harm surrounding grass, you can also hand-remove crabgrass or even pour boiling water or 5% vinegar over crabgrass as a spot treatment.

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’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.

Yes, Johnsongrass is a hard weed to kill. It has the ability to grow fast and spread even quicker, so it requires a detailed plan and thorough application to eliminate it. The best plan of action is to kill Johnsongrass while the weed is establishing itself by hiring a lawn care professional or following the steps above.
