"Hard working, extremely reliable, flexible scheduling, polite, courteous, and shows on time. Cleared my backyard of weeds including roots, used pick axe instead of a tiller which would have blended weed roots back into the soil. Disposed of all the weed root waste. Planted zoysia sod as requested, even offered to use his trailer to pick up final load at sod farm in Poolesville, MD about 1 hr and 10 minutes from my home in Shepherdstown, WV saving me time and travel. Timely in completing the work and reasonably priced."

"Juan was professional, responsive and always got the job done in a timely manner. We had been using another service that we constantly had to remind to come out to mow our lawn but Juan was consistent and always did an amazingly thorough job. I only wish we had found him sooner."

"My backyard was so overgrown with all kinds of plants shrubs, small little garden spots throughout the yard. There was a raised Gordon bed. They cleaned everything up for me and hold it all way I now have one solid backyard. They even trimmed my hedges. They were so easy to deal with. They’re very reasonable in price. I am actually having them come back and move stone out of my front yard and make a little patio for me for my swing. I will recommend them to everyone."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can pull up weeds at the root.

Pulling weeds once per month is typically often enough to keep most weeds at bay. But in general, it's best to pull weeds as soon as you spot them to prevent deep root growth and slow their spread. To make it easier, plan your weed pulling after rain or after the sprinklers run so the soil will be nice and wet and the weeds will be easier to pull. If you notice moss accompanying weeds, make a plan to remove the moss immediately to prevent damage.

Vinegar is known to be a contact herbicide, which means it kills the foliage it comes in contact with. Because of the high acetic acid concentration, horticultural vinegar kills weeds and grass more effectively. However, keep in mind that high amounts and multiple applications can affect the soil by lowering the pH levels.

Johnsongrass and crabgrass are invasive weeds that can overtake your lawn. Crabgrass is a low-growing grass most often seen in lawns, flower beds, and vegetable gardens. While you may find Johnsongrass growing in your lawn, it will also grow in pastures, crop fields, and the edge of the road. Johnsongrass is much coarser than crabgrass. If left alone, Johnsongrass can grow up to 8 feet tall. 

Each type of weed comes with its own control methods, but stopping the seed spread is the first step. Grazing, mowing, and hand pulling can slow the invasion. In some cases, selective herbicide is necessary to stop a persistent weed from overtaking an area.
