Weed Control and Other Lawn and Maintenance Needs

Residential lawn care specialists will conduct an examination of your property and make program recommendations customized to the needs of your lawn and landscape. These may include lawn fertilizers, weed control applications, and if necessary, targeted residential lawn care treatments for insects, grubs, and lawn diseases. Sunny areas are treated different from shaded areas because they have unique requirements, and your lawn is inspected thoroughly in order to spot signs of unwanted insect populations as early as possible. Your residential lawn care specialist can also help you with soil analysis, aeration, seeding, and lime applications.

Weeds are definitely unsightly, but they are also harmful to your yard because they compete with grass and other plants for moisture, nutrients, light and space.

To control weeds such as dandelion, clover and thistle, we apply a post-emergence herbicide, which is absorbed into the leaves and is circulated down into the root system. This doesn’t prevent the seeds from germinating and re-infesting a lawn.

Proper fertilization, mowing and irrigation encourage grass to grow in quickly and thus preventing weed seed germination and growth. Lawn Care Inc. can help you develop a total weed treatment and prevention solution.

DISEASE CONTROL LAWN TREATMENTS

Lawn and Yard Diseases

Discolored and spotted grass leaves may be a sign of disease or fungus. Diseases, such as leaf spots or spring dead spot, are caused by fungi. The best way to prevent a disease or fungus is to keep your lawn healthy with proper mowing, watering and fertilizing.

If you notice lesions on your grass blades, particularly during cool weather, you might have leaf spots. In the summer months, the fungus infects the blades, spreads to the base of the plant and kills it. Applying a series of fungicide treatments - or calling Lawn Care Inc. to do it for you - will protect your lawn from devastating injury.

While raking matted spots will encourage circulation and encourage lightly infected areas to repair themselves, seriously affected areas require may require reseeding or lawn rejuvination.
