Weeds Are A Symptom. Thin Turf Is The Cause.

Yes. When you sign up, you choose your preferred notification method, text or email. We send notifications the day before service letting you know which technician will be servicing your lawn. You can reply to any message with special concerns or requests for the technician.

No, please keep your normal mowing schedule. We actually prefer the lawn is not freshly mowed: it is easier to see and identify weeds, and bigger weeds have more leaf surface area for herbicide absorption. Herbicide enters through the leaf, so more leaf means a better kill. That said, if the lawn is freshly mowed it is not a concern. We can work with any mowing schedule.

Wait 24 hours after application before mowing. That gives our products more than enough time to activate and absorb into the plants. Mowing too soon can remove herbicide before it is fully absorbed by the weeds.

For best results, water in within 48 hours of application. If you have underground sprinklers, just let them run on their normal schedule — no special watering needed. If you cannot water within 48 hours, the fertilizers will still work, just slightly slower. Application #6 is the exception and does not need watering, because that fertilizer is immediately available to the plant.

Yes. Your pets can be on the lawn once it is dry, which typically takes about an hour, longer on cool or cloudy days. Keep them inside during application and until the grass is completely dry, then normal activity can resume.

Yes, in two ways. If you are home, they will raise any concerns with you directly. Whether you are home or not, they will email you a lawn report card assessing mowing height, watering practices, fungus or disease presence, and whether fall seeding is recommended.

Two ways. A yard sign goes at the end of the driveway or another highly visible spot, and a door hanger is left with the date, time, service details and aftercare instructions.

Both, on every application. All fertilizers are granular, using slow-release polymer-coated technology that feeds the lawn for 8 to 10 weeks — liquid fertilizers do not have that slow-release capability. All weed control is liquid, because it completely coats the weed leaves and ensures the herbicide penetrates. Granular herbicides cannot achieve that level of coverage.

Yes, and this one is critical. Many of our products harm new grass seed. When you notify us we note your account, skip all pre-emergents because they prevent grass seed from germinating too, and skip all herbicides for six weeks while the new grass is vulnerable. We continue fertilizer, which is excellent for new seed. You also get a free weed control callback six weeks after seeding — just call us.
