What Is With These Weeds?
“We Grow It. We Mow It.” Don’t bug out this summer! This is the time of year when spiders, fleas, earwigs, ants, and many other pests start to emerge and try to make our houses their homes. Keep them outside with our Perimeter Pest Control. Four applications precisely timed throughout the season guarantees the best results for a bug free home all summer long.
POSTCARD
Call our office today to sign up for the 4 application Perimeter Pest Control program from Green Acres Lawn Care!
Weeds fall into two major categories, annual and perennial. Annual weeds (clover, crabgrass) grow from seeds from the previous growing season and complete their life cycle in one growing season. The best way to combat annual weeds is by applying a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent the growth of the seed. Perennial weeds (dandelion, quackgrass) recover or regrow from dormant seeds and produce new growth from growing points below the soil and live for 3 or more years. The best way to combat perennial weeds is with continuous applications of postemergent herbicides. In order to best control all weeds keep your turf thick and healthy. Mowing tall (3 - 3 1/2 “), watering, overseeding, and signing up for our full lawn management program will help you achieve this. Keep in mind that one application or even one season may not be enough to solve the problem. If you have questions or concerns regarding weed control, please call our office at (815) 703-0873 and a member of our team will be happy to assist you.
