What makes matters worse is when you spend hours pulling and treating problem spots only to have weeds grow right back. What can you do? As the Wayne area\u2019s local lawn care service experts, Lawn Doctor of Havertown, Lansdale, Boyertown, Tredyffrin knows the first step in any effective weed control plan is to identify the types of weeds you have and then apply the right treatments \u2013 at the right times.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Types of Weeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Weeds we typically see in the Wayne area when providing lawn care services include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Broadleaf weeds, which are easy to spot with their wider leaves and flowers. These include dandelion, clove, thistle, wild violets, and chickweed.<\/li>\n<li>Grassy weeds, like crabgrass, goose grass, and yellow foxtail.<\/li>\n<li>Seasonal weeds, like those that thrive during the warmer months and those that typically grow in cooler seasons.<\/li>\n<li>Perennial weeds, which come back each year unless treated, and annual weeds, which usually die off at the end of their growing cycle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>How to Treat Weeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you know what kind of weeds you have, how do you control them? Here are a few tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Water your lawn deeply, yet infrequently, to encourage a stronger root system.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t cut your lawn too short. Instead, use one of the two highest settings, allowing grass to grow and shade weeds, making it harder for them to thrive.<\/li>\n<li>Properly fertilize your yard so it\u2019s not missing any key nutrients and it can grow in thicker, preventing the likelihood of weed growth.<\/li>\n<li>Use a weed control product designed to target the weeds you\u2019re having problems with. Just don\u2019t try to pull them out. Often, the stem breaks off while the root remains intact and ready to sprout new weeds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>How Our Local Lawn Care Service Experts Can Help<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5277 size-thumbnail alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Crabgrass-003-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Service Experts pulling weeds\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>Want to control weeds in your lawn once and for all?
