Weed Control Highland Tip of the Week

Hey guys, this is Taylor here with Green Grounds Lawn & Pest. So got called to a house to kind of look at their lawn and see what’s going on. We’ve got a bit of everything going on here. So, the lime green grass, that’s going to be our crab grass. We have just really thin area here and that has caused a whole bunch of weeds to be able to pop through. So I mean, you’ve got everything from dandelion, to spurge, to everything. Solution for this… Our fertilization weed control program is going to include weed control at either a three or four way that will go ahead and kill any of these weeds and aren’t supposed to be here. It is going to need to be treated with what’s called Quinn Clorox, to go ahead and kill off any of that crab grass to get that out of there.


So, that would be the first step. The next step, we just really want to make sure that this lawn is fed and healthy, and really we thicken up that… Thicken up the base of grass so that way it helps fight the weeds off a little bit better. So, that’s going to be one of your best solutions to having a weed free lawn, is to make sure that it’s nice, thick, and healthy. And one of the best ways to do that is it makes sure that you’re feeding it, and giving it the proper amount of fertilizer that it needs. So, hope this answers your questions. Do you have any more Highland weed control questions? Give us a call. Thanks. Bye.
