REDUCE LAWN CHEMICALS!

The “Other” Weed Control Programs 

Competitor programs routinely over apply unsafe lawn chemicals across the entire lawn - indiscriminately and irrespective of actual weed or insect status. These are the notorious weed and feed products, and worse the tanker trucks that “hose down” the entire lawn with a toxic liquid of herbicide mixed with fertilizer. Why?  Simple, saves them labor. Just "nuke" the lawn with chemicals and they're right - no weeds.  BUT the unfortunate consequence is that lots and lots and lots of unsafe lawn chemicals are applied. And this excessive application is repeated up to 5-6 times over the course of the season. The result, higher chemical exposure to family and pets.

Our weed management approach:

Our objective is to minimize chemicals applied – use only the amount that is needed.   Our weed management is handled through targeted spot weed treatment. Our high quality granular fertilizer products are always absent herbicides, insecticides, etc, just a high quality food source for the turf. The only application of fertilizer with herbicide we recommend is the first Early Spring application with a pre-emergent for crabgrass control. All other fertilizer applications are absent herbicides, pesticides, etc. just a high quality food source for the turf. After the granular fertilizer application our technicians walk the property again systematically and carefully spot treating the weeds with a liquid herbicide. This two step process is a much more labor intensive approach for us - but our agreement and objective with our customers is to minimize chemicals applied.  We use only what is needed, no more, for effective weed control.

And we never use ATV's.  Running an ATV over the lawn always leads to an over application of chemicals and unhealthy serious compaction of the turf!  

We are on your property at regular intervals for spot weed management – no additional charge – part of the service. Regular weed treatments are more labor intensive on our part – but extra and regular visits are what is required to minimize chemical use and achieve great weed management. And that’s what sets us apart from our competition.

And if ever you need us on your property sooner simply send us a “Weed Alert” email . We love communication. We are local, always in the area so we can respond promptly.

Never an extra charge, part of the service.
