Do you want to build a stunning green lawn? Without professional weed control, your yard in Dyer is always vulnerable to invasive plant growth. Fortunately, our experts at Lawn Doctor of West Lake County are ready to help. We provide the effective solutions you need to put a stop to weed growth and maintain healthy conditions within your yard.
What is a Weed?
We define a weed as any plant that is out of place. Even grass can be a weed, if it is growing where you don’t want it to grow (for example, in your landscaping) or if it is the wrong type of grass (for example, creeping bentgrass growing in a bluegrass lawn.)
Our Trusted Weed Control Options in Dyer
Weed seeds are spread around randomly by wind, birds, and other factors, so this issue can be quite unpredictable. That’s why our experts are prepared to offer solutions at any stage of weed growth. Our service includes:
- Pre-emergent treatments. With our top-quality pre-emergent herbicides, we can proactively stop weeds before they pop out of the ground. This option is a great way to stop crabgrass and other grassy weeds.
- Post-emergent treatments. For weeds that have already sprouted in your yard, we can provide post-emergent treatments to quickly destroy these plants and restore your beautiful green lawn.
DIY Weed Prevention with Our Expert Guidance
Our weed control products alone are not enough to keep weeds out of your lawn if cultural practices are not optimal. The best defense to keeping weeds out of the lawn is to have a thick, healthy lawn that crowds them out.
Given the unpredictable nature of weed growth, it’s always a good idea to take proactive steps to reduce the risk of weed issues in your yard. We recommend the following DIY habits for weed prevention:
- Proper mowing. Weekly mowing sessions are a great way to limit weed growth. Be sure to only trim your grass by about one-third, as cutting shorter can have the opposite effect and create favorable conditions for weeds and other issues. Your lawn should not be cut shorter than 3-3.5 inches for any reason. Please refer to our Mowing Tips for best mowing practices.
- Proper watering. For most lawns, we recommend that your lawn gets 1-1.5 inches of water per week. Watering is the most difficult part of lawn care to do correctly because there are so many different variables in lawns. Please refer to our Watering Tips for best watering practices. If you have reviewed these and still have questions, please call our office.
