Customers say: True professional

"Matt, Johnny,& Louis from Yards Apart Landscaping did a great job removing my old sparse, weed infested lawn. They enriched the existing soil with many cubic yards of new top soil and planted a whole new lawn of sod. They were punctual, friendly, hard working, and did a wonderful job. They even worked around an on street parking issue in front of our house"

"I needed my lawn cut after my mower died. Gary called me back within a couple of hours and we set up a time within a few days for him to come out. Did an excellent job cutting the lawn and cleaning up edges and weeds. I called for a one-time mow but would not hesitate to hire him again in the future. Cost was very reasonable! He even checked out my mower, and gave me advice of what he thinks is going on with it not starting. First two pictures are the completed job, the second two pictures are the before."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Poison oak is similar to poison ivy in that it's in the same family of plants. Poison oak is identifiable by its rounded-off leaves and hairy leaf texture. Tree-climbing varieties live primarily in western states while low-growing poison oak bushes occupy the eastern states. Treat poison oak like poison ivy to get rid of it permanently.

No, definitely not. Pulling weeds by hand is the single most effective way to remove them because you're eliminating the entire plant—roots and all—so it won’t have a chance to grow or spread. Setting time aside a few times per week to pull weeds can keep them at bay. If the number of weeds gets overwhelming, then you can resort to other methods.

Mowing is one of the most important ways to maintain your lawn because it encourages grass to grow horizontally, creating a fuller, more uniform yard. On top of mowing your lawn, you’ll want to routinely fertilize your lawn, water it regularly, and take care of pests the moment they arise. 

Foxtail self-seeds and dispurses them among other grasses and pastures. The seeds can spread by wind and by attaching themselves to animals and humans. Seeds will germinate in their new location and become a new plant, which continues the spread of foxtail. Unfortunately, foxtail spreads easily, making it difficult to remove unless it’s caught quickly.

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.
