While pulling them can seem effective at first, if you don&#8217;t remove the total root, they&#8217;ll simply regrow. Instead, you need a treatment plan, one that creates a better growing environment and stronger\u00a0defenses. But where do you begin? Here are a few lawn weed control\u00a0tips Georgetown, DE-area homeowners like you can put to use to\u00a0get started:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Check your cultural practices. <\/strong>You might not think how you mow and when you water has a big impact on weed growth. Yet, poor habits\u00a0are some of the leading causes of heavy weeds and little control\u00a0in lawns across the Georgetown area. Mowing too short stresses blades, limits carbohydrate production, and enables more\u00a0light and water to reach weed seedlings. Likewise, light and frequent watering produces shallow roots, setting your yard up for less stress tolerance and lower weed resistance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Test your soil conditions.<\/strong> When nutrients are lacking or the pH level is too acidic, roots can&#8217;t access the essentials they need to thrive. This, in turn, weakens your lawn, providing the perfect opportunity for weeds to take root and start choking out grass. That&#8217;s where soil testing can be so valuable, giving you specific insight into\u00a0the environment your lawn is growing in.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aerate your yard and seed vulnerable spots.<\/strong> When soil is dense and there are bare spots across your lawn, weeds will take advantage. However, with aeration,\u00a0which is simply a process that removes small chunks of soil,\u00a0you can create\u00a0better airflow, as well as more nutrient\u00a0and water absorption. Once the process is completed, the soil is actually perfectly cultivated for a healthy dose of seed. So don&#8217;t forget to\u00a0treat those areas that are bare or thinning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>The Georgetown Area&#8217;s Lawn Weed Control Team:\u00a0Leave\u00a0the Job to Us!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Lawn Doctor of Sussex County knows that as a busy homeowner in the\u00a0Georgetown area,\u00a0you might not have time for all these lawn weed control treatments.
