"A.C. and his two assistants were amazing. The heat index was over 100 degrees, and they worked non-stop for five hours, cleaning out beds, which were clogged with weeds, laying the mulch and carefully edging throughout. Poison ivy gone. They were polite, professional -- a pleasure to work with."

"I can’t begin to describe how pleased I am with my experience with LDL Services! Lester was quick to come out to quote my job. We agreed on a fair price that afternoon and he was out the next morning (sooner than expected!). It was a big job, but he and his crew finished by late afternoon. They cleared out an embarrassing amount of overgrowth and finally got my yard under control. I couldn’t be happier with their work! I will definitely keep them in mind for my next project!"

"Derrick brought in the mulch I needed within days. He and his crew are talented and dedicated, my beds were covered with 22 cubic yards. Derrick and one of his crew are also skilled at concrete and masonry, so I hired the pair to raise custom shaped and installed flag stones. I never thought I would find artisans with the skill to re-install them with the slope and fit required. They pulled it off"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The best time to hire a weed service company is in the early spring. This allows them to apply a pre-emergent weed killer that stops weeds from taking root, making maintenance for the rest of the season much easier. Following the initial spring application, a monthly service through the summer and early fall is a good idea for ongoing weed control. These regular treatments, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be sufficient to maintain a weed-free yard. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may offer better rates on contracts signed before the busy spring season.

Weed control applications usually cost around $100 each for a standard-size yard, and most professionals charge between $30 and $60 per hour for manual weed removal. Your total is affected most by the size of the weeded area. Some weed service companies offer weed control treatments, selective herbicide spraying, and manual removal and upkeep as part of a package, costing around $600 annually. You might pay less if you hire the same company for other lawn services, like flower bed upkeep, aeration, overseeding, and pesticide application.

The safest method to avoid killing your turf grass is hand pulling Johnsongrass. You can also apply vinegar for a safer herbicide, but it will still burn your lawn if it gets on it.
