Want to give grassy weeds the boot? It may be harder than you think to accomplish this task on your own. In contrast to broadleaf weeds, grassy weeds are quite adept at going unnoticed until they have spread extensively. Whether you have crabgrass, quack grass, foxtail, or orchard grass popping up on your lawn, you may not even become aware of the problem until these weeds have started to inflict damage upon your turfgrass. With our weed control service managing the growth of irritating invasive plants, you can look forward to a more beautiful landscape in Millwood with fewer weed-related worries on your mind.

At Lawn Doctor of Spokane, we believe you shouldn’t have to be a weed expert in order to enjoy the benefits of gorgeous grass. Let us handle your weed problem, so you can relax knowing that your turf is being protected from the harm that invasive plants can cause. However, the more you understand about the different weeds that could take over your lawn, the better able you will be to take the necessary steps to enlist our support. Here are some key facts about grassy weeds to bear in mind:
- Their similarity to turfgrass. As their name implies, grassy weeds resemble turfgrass in a number of ways. In addition to their visual appearance, they also share many biological similarities. This makes them more of a challenge to treat than broadleaf weeds such as dandelions, as extra measures need to be taken to avoid killing off turfgrass when knocking out grassy weeds.
- Why DIY methods aren’t the best. If you’ve tried pulling grassy weeds out by hand, you likely know that their root systems are rather extensive. This means that when you rip them out of the soil, you’ll only get a brief period of relief before more grow back in the same place. If you instead choose to use herbicides, you may accidentally do more harm than good by killing off the surrounding turfgrass.
- How we treat them. Our technicians are experienced at targeting grassy weeds and can safely knock out active plants using post-emergent formulas. We can also take a preventative approach to stop these weeds from laying down roots by applying pre-emergent treatments at just the right time in the season.
