Get a Grip on Weeds!
Nobody likes the problem of weeds. Unwanted vegetation growth on your property is unsightly, can create a fire hazard and is unsanitary. Weeds detract from property image and value and can provide habitat for other pests such as rodents that invade homes and businesses.
Weed out Program
The weed out program is designed to control all non-turf weeds on the property on a season long basis. This program generally begins in the fall and gets those nasty weed problems before they germinate.
Areas controlled include:
- Shrub and landscape beds
- Sidewalk and driveway cracks
- Gravel driveways
- Fence lines and building perimeter
Roundup® Pre-plant Vegetation Control
Non-selective control of all foliated weeds prior to planting turf, gardens, or landscapes. This treatment does not affect soil and planting is possible within a few days after treatment.
Bare ground Vegetation Control
Long term residual control of weeds for areas where no growth of any kind is wanted. This is best for industrial, gravel parking lots, fence lines and building perimeters. This treatment cannot be applied near tree and shrub roots or where water runoff may carry the product off target.
What should I do now to prevent weeds this spring and summer?
Non-Turf areasFor those non-turf areas, early spring (Mar-May) can be a good time to apply some pre-emergent control to prevent weeds from germinating. A spring treatment is very important if no fall pre-emergent was done.
Industrial areas
March is an excellent window of time for season long control of vegetation where bare ground is desired.
