For most Omaha lawns, our complete season program costs less per day than a cup of coffee. Consider what you get: professional-grade products unavailable to consumers, expert application with commercial equipment, trained technicians who diagnose problems, unlimited weed control callbacks, lawn health assessments, and zero time investment on your part. Compare that to DIY lawn care’s cost, time, and uncertain results.
At Yard Boss, we understand that you may have questions about our services, processes, and how we can help you achieve the perfect lawn. Whether you’re curious about our lawn care techniques, service areas, or the benefits of professional lawn maintenance, you’ll find the information you need right here. If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out to our friendly team!
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 NOT be freshly mowed because:
That said, if the lawn is freshly mowed, it's not a concern. We can work with any mowing schedule.
Wait 24 hours (one day) after application before mowing. This gives our products more than enough time to activate and absorb into plants. Mowing too soon can remove herbicide before it's fully absorbed by weeds.
For best results, water in within 48 hours of application. However, there are some nuances:
Yes. Your pets can be on the lawn once it's dry, which typically takes about 1 hour (longer on cool or cloudy days). Keep them inside during application and until grass is completely dry, then normal activity can resume.
Yes, in two ways:
If you're home: They'll communicate concerns verbally
Whether you're home or not: They'll email you a lawn report card assessing mowing height, watering practices, fungus/disease presence, and whether fall seeding is recommended
Two ways:
We use BOTH on every application—this gives us the best products for each purpose:
This hybrid approach delivers superior results compared to all-granular or all-liquid programs.
YES! This is critical. Many of our products harm new grass seed. When you notify us of seeding:
No—the Outlot Program can ONLY be purchased as an add-on to the 6-step program. Here's why:
The 3 applications are strategically timed for maximum impact on unirrigated, lower-maintenance areas:
What Each Application Accomplishes
No—free callbacks are NOT included with the Outlot Program. Here's the distinction:
Why the difference? The cost-effective outlot pricing for large secondary areas doesn't support callback visits. The program is designed to control 90-95% of weeds with the 3 strategic applications. If you need additional treatment between apps, we can schedule that as a paid visit.
Practical reality: Most customers find the 3-application program sufficient for outlying areas because weed expectations are different (acceptable vs. perfect) and unirrigated areas naturally have fewer weeds than intensively maintained lawns.
Outlot areas are secondary turf zones that are visible and maintained but don't receive the same intensive care as your primary lawn. Common examples:
Typical Outlot Areas
NOT Outlot Areas (Should Be 6-Step)
Rule of thumb: If you irrigate it, entertain on it, or it's your main "show lawn," that's 6-step territory. If it's unirrigated, functional, visible but secondary, that's outlot territory.
Typically 20,000+ square feet of outlot area makes the program cost-effective. Here's the thinking:
Assessment: We'll evaluate your property and recommend whether outlot program makes sense or if extending 6-step coverage is the better option.
Yes! If you're already on the 6-step program and realize your outlying areas need attention, we can add outlot service:
Pricing adjusted based on which applications you'll receive remaining in current season.
If you want all 6 applications on secondary areas, that's not the Outlot Program—that's extending your 6-step program coverage. Options:
Most customers choose Outlot Program because for unirrigated, lower-maintenance areas, the 3 strategic applications provide everything needed at significantly lower cost.
Yes! Outlot Program is perfect for commercial properties with large secondary areas:
Commercial Applications
Same requirements apply: Must have 6-step program on 20,000+ sq ft primary landscape. Outlot treats secondary visible areas at cost-effective rate.
