Whether you want to prevent an infestation or you&#8217;re already seeing signs of invaders in your yard, a treatment plan will help you perform the job effectively. Some steps to take in it include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step #1: Act early. <\/strong>Once weeds germinate, they grow quickly, spread, and then drop seed, repopulating your yard with a new generation. To avoid this, target grassy weeds before they can break through the surface of the soil with a granular pre-emergent lawn weed control treatment during the early spring season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step #2:\u00a0Get aggressive. <\/strong>When you see one or two intruders,\u00a0pulling them out by hand might be the fastest approach to control. But if you don&#8217;t get out the whole root, it will grow back. A better strategy\u00a0is direct contact with\u00a0surface weeds using a post-emergent product.\u00a0These get absorbed into the leaves and\u00a0circulated down below, attacking plants at their roots.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step #3:\u00a0Mow right. <\/strong>Before your first cut, make sure mower blades are set higher this season, so you don&#8217;t take off more than 1\/3 of your lawn at a time. When you keep grass a little longer, it serves as a natural defense, stopping young weeds from getting enough sunlight to develop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step #4:\u00a0Water well. <\/strong>When you irrigate, provide about an inch of water once a week. This will penetrate the soil to a depth of around four to six inches, below the root system, encouraging roots to grow deeper in search of moisture.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Matawan&#8217;s\u00a0Lawn Weed Control Team:\u00a0Leave\u00a0the Work\u00a0to Us!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At Lawn Doctor of Matawan, we know weed control can be a lot of work, especially between mowing and watering.
