Why lawn weed control matters
A weed is simply an unwanted plant that can grow in your lawn, your garden, or any place with dirt on your property. The more weeds you have, the less room there is for your lawn to grow. These weeds spread throughout the landscape and can do serious damage if not treated the right way. Your local Lawn Doctor professional can help with what needs to be done to protect your yard from future weed infestations.
The two main types of lawn weeds
Generally speaking, weeds that show up on lawns in the United States fall into two main categories: broadleaf weeds and grassy weeds.
Broadleaf weeds generally have wider leaves and include things like dandelion, chickweed, purslane, and clover. While some broadleaf weeds may flower and look like pretty plants, the way dandelions, wild violet, and henbit do, that does not mean that they are not weeds.
The second type of weed is the grassy weed, such as crabgrass. One of the problems with grassy weeds is that they grow under the very same conditions as regular grass does, so treating your lawn could inadvertently end up growing the weeds as well. Thus, it is important to talk to your local Lawn Doctor expert on how to treat grassy weeds.
Annual vs. perennial weeds
One size does not fit all when it comes to weed prevention and removal. That is because weeds can either be annual – growing season is one year or less, or perennial weeds continue over multiple seasons. Generally speaking, annual weeds start with a seed brought onto your lawn via birds, or the wind, or even yourself – weed seeds could inadvertently hitch a ride on you. These annual weeds can grow multiple times in one year.
Perennial weeds establish roots in your lawn, and can last for multiple seasons. Getting rid of them can be tough, because they need to be removed entirely, including the full roots, or they will just keep on growing.
Different weeds grow in different seasons and in different climates
Just like lawns, weeds can fall into cool-season and warm-season types, growing best during certain times of year. In addition, when it comes to controlling lawn weeds, different weeds are a nuisance in different parts of the country. As there are literally hundreds of different kinds of weeds, effective treatments could vary. There are also different times of year in which you may want to treat your lawn for weeds, as there is no one set time that works for all weeds when it comes to weed control.

How Our Expert Lawn Care Helps to Reduce Weeds
In addition to our professional services to eradicate weeds directly, we also provide the tailored lawn care solutions you need to build a stronger lawn ecosystem that is less vulnerable to invasive plant issues in the first place. The most important of these services is our custom lawn fertilization. We provide the right nutrients to address the specific conditions of your lawn and build a lush, green, and durable landscape where weeds will struggle to thrive.
Our core aeration treatment is another key service that helps to reduce the risk of lawn weeds. This treatment works to reduce soil compaction and preserve healthier conditions within your lawn. One of the effects of this treatment is that it will allow your roots to grow deeper within your lawn, creating a stronger environment and reducing the risk of future lawn weed growth.
How Lawn Weed Control Helps with Lawn Fertilization
While lawn fertilization helps to increase the effectiveness of our weed control treatments, the opposite is also true. Our lawn weed control at Lawn Doctor of Fargo-Moorhead-Detroit Lakes plays a key role in making sure your turf, soil, and roots get the nutrients they need. That’s because lawn weeds consume the same resources as your grass plants, so the two cannot thrive in the same area. Weeds will out-compete your lawn for fertilizer and other resources, leading to a malnourished landscape.
With our annual Lawn Maintainer Program, we combine these key services in order to create the right conditions for your lawn. This treatment plan will include between 6 and 8 fertilization treatments per year, along with our pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control at the appropriate intervals.
