How to Approach a Weedy Lawn in Edwardsville
At Lawn Doctor of Edwardsville-Collinsville, we have experience getting rid of weeds and preventing them from making a return. Not only do we understand how frustrating these invasive plants can be, but we also take a long-term approach to promoting your yard’s health and helping it remain resilient to the attempts of future weeds to grab territory.
Here are the steps we always recommend taking if you’re dealing with a lawn full of weeds:
- Invest in a yearly makeover for your lawn. The appearance of weeds is often a sign that your lawn isn’t in great shape to begin with. Taking the time to tend to its overall health will help prevent weeds from gaining a foothold in the first place. As part of an annual makeover, we often conduct pH testing, core aeration, and seeding. Simply call on our team to determine which treatments are right for your lawn and to create and implement an individualized plan to bring your turf to peak health.
- Continue with ongoing lawn maintenance. While giving your lawn a makeover will set it up for success, you can only count on it staying in great shape if you continue investing in its care. This means watering it correctly, mowing often, and having our technicians apply precise fertilizer treatments regularly to replenish its stores of vital nutrients.
- Get started with weed control treatments. Finally, effective weed control also involves targeted treatments based on the weed type and the season. We offer both pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments to tackle a wide variety of weed species and leave your lawn with a lush, even look unmarred by invasive dandelions, crabgrass, or other ugly invaders.
