"This company has been very trustworthy and dependable. Olivia really knows how to care for and treat lawns. She has sprayed our lawn for fungus and specific weeds all season and the lawn looks great. She advises us to mow at certain lengths and timing. We had a drainage problem on one side of our house and she dug a drainage ditch and filled it in with rocks. She does all our fertilizing and pre-emergent weed control. This company is always right on top of everything that needs to be done and is very reasonably priced, especially for Seniors. I respect and appreciate the dedication to the customer that has been shown to me as a client."

"David has been cutting and trimming my lawn for over a year and I am very pleased with his services. His team is efficient and quick and does a great job. They even come up on my back patio and blow off the dead leaves. Other teams just ignored this. He is easy to deal with and flexible with my schedule. I have recommended him to several of my friends and highly advise you to try him if you want a good job for a reasonable price."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Due to its slow growth, Bahia grass does not generally take over weeds. In fact, the opposite can be true. Young Bahia grass is susceptible to being taken over by weeds. 

Likewise, in the cool season, Bahia grass goes into a dormant state that can allow weeds that thrive in early spring to get the upper hand. If you want to prevent weeds from taking over your yard, remove them by hand or apply a Bahia grass-friendly pre-emergent herbicide to your lawn before weeds have a chance to appear.

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.

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.

Crabgrass is very resilient, and homemade solutions like vinegar may not be strong enough. Typically, hand-weeding is the most effective option that doesn’t involve harmful chemicals. You can use corn-meal gluten as a natural pre-emergent herbicide, but it’s not as effective as chemical weed killers.

If you spray a DIY vinegar solution that contains high salt, it can disrupt the soil's structure and make it difficult for plants to grow. That's why it's vital to avoid spraying vinegar solution on areas where you are trying to grow plants and flowers. When using a mix of vinegar and soap, some say you can plant a few days after the vinegar dries.
