Carolina Lot Care specializes in environmentally safe land clearing, forestry mulching, brush cutting, undergrowth removal and eco-friendly land clearing. We offer state-of-the-art brush clearing equipment for Contractors, developers, governments, co-ops, and property owners. This land clearing equipment leaves a park-like effect and there is no burning or hauling. When compared to traditional methods (bulldozers and excavators) our light weight and efficient equipment leaves less of an impact on the environment and eliminates damage to the tree roots, bark and the terrain. No wet land study is needed because we do not remove or alter the root structure saving you time, money and hassles with permitting. We use a system called “Selective Clearing” removing only the underbrush and unwanted trees while leaving the natural features of the land. Our equipment grinds trees and stumps flush with the ground returning the nutrient rich mulch to leave a park like appearance. The mulch left behind helps with moisture retention and erosion control once again reducing the overall cost of retaining walls (silt Fence) and seeding. We are now offering Flying Pest control to Contractors, Governments, Local Municipalities and Home Owner Associations. Our early morning system is completely safe for humans and is extracted out of the Chrysanthemum flower vastly reducing the number of Mosquitos, No-See-Ums, Spiders, Ticks and Snakes allowing employees to work more efficiently and visitors to enjoy their stay.

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s always a good idea to fertilize your lawn before a major leveling project. This step gives your grass the nutrients necessary for healthy growth, helping it recover and replenish itself faster. However, you should do this at least three weeks in advance, as the leveling process can disturb the newly-applied fertilizer.

The first step is killing any current nutgrass plants, either through application of herbicides or sugar, by digging up the plants and rhizomes, or by using soil solarization. To discourage new nutgrass plants from forming, ensure proper landscape drainage and bring shade into areas of the lawn that are consistently damp.

The best time to apply fertilizer to your lawn is in early fall, though some climates necessitate a different schedule. In most cases, avoid fertilizing late into fall, as this opens up your yard to winter injuries and poor health (though this is a great time to kill weeds.) You should avoid early spring fertilization, as this helps the grass leaves grow, but at the expense of developing root systems. Remember to water your lawn after fertilizing to increase its effectiveness and reduce the likelihood of runoff during a rainstorm. 

You free up your weekends, as pros often conduct mowing and maintenance efficiently and without disrupting your schedule.

Provided you're using an appropriate starter fertilizer for grass seed, you can put down seeds and fertilizer at the same time. However, putting them down separately, one after the other, on the same day will help to avoid over- or under-applying the lawn food. Avoid using a fertilizer with weed control elements, as these will likely keep the grass seeds from starting.
