Customers say: Quality work

"For a few years, Southland Services has mowed our next door neighbor's yard. This year we asked if they would start mowing our yard. They have been reliable and at reasonable rates. Recently we asked them to trim some cedar trees and top some crepe myrtle trees. Again done well and at a reasonable rate."

Small jobs welcome

"We are over the moon happy with the service provided! My mother has used Earl for her lawn care and has been impressed with his ability to meet her varied needs and requests. When we had a portion of a wooden fence failing, I reached out to see if they could assist. Earl was punctual and excellent in all communications. After reviewing the job, he provided a very prompt and reasonable quote. Since fence repairs are not his main line of work, I was not sure what to expect, but we are absolutely thrilled with the results! It was not a small job, but Earl and the two members of his staff were done in less than a day and still performed tremendous work, all while being polite, conscientious and thorough while respecting our property."

"Andres and Fabiola came out to do the estimate and they were very thorough in proposing work to be done based on what I told them I wanted, which included cutting branches that were encroaching on the house, trimming out of control bushes around the house, debris cleanup, weeding, lawn mowing and trimming overgrown grass. All I can say is they did an excellent job and the grounds look great! I am extremely pleased and happy with the way it all turned out. I'm looking forward to having them work on other projects."

"Peter arrived at agreed on time, went over the three areas (remove brushy weeds, weedeat, clean weeds from around propane tank and clean up residue.) It took 3 hours on a hot humid day using cuutters for thumb thick brush and a tarp to collect cuttings. He did it well and even picked up trash blown out of passing vehicles without being asked or told to do so. I plan on using him again as I am 77 and not able to do this type of yardwork any more."

Weed Services FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:

  • How often will you apply herbicides?

  • Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?

  • Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?

  • What other lawn services can you provide?

  • Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?

  • Are you properly licensed and fully insured?

  • Do you have any customer references I could speak with?

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 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. 

All herbicides come with risks, but you can control and mitigate risks by discussing your options with your weed service company before application. Some companies use milder or sustainable herbicides more times per season to control weeds rather than one to two herbicide sprayings annually. You can also ask your professional about pet-friendly and kid-friendly services. In most cases, though, you can wait a few days after the application for the herbicides to soak into the ground, at that point they shouldn’t pose a risk to you or your family.

Like sugar, the common household staple baking soda has uses in the yard. Baking soda boosts your plants to resist pests, fungal growth, and more. So, baking soda is good for your plants in certain instances, but exercise caution, as using too much could kill your plants. It’s great for hunting for pesky weeds, but not great for tending to a sensitive garden.
