Improve Your Strategy for Weed Control in St. Charles
At Lawn Doctor of Batavia-Aurora, we have years of local experience and broad franchise system-wide expertise as well as a large collection of professional resources available to offer proven weed control strategies and techniques for local lawns. From controlling annual weeds, like crab grass, to managing persistent perennial weeds, like dandelions, creeping Charlie and wild violets, we understand the different types of weeds in our area and know the timing and products that produce results.
Some of our best advice for improving your approach to weeds concerns learning more about how these plants spread and how our treatments can make a significant difference to your lawn in the St. Charles area:
- Weed control is all about timing and consistency.
Knowing the timing of when weeds will begin to germinate and which products will treat them and then treating the lawn consistently throughout the season will reduce the population of plants and seeds on your lawn and ultimately reduce the population of undesirable plants in your lawn. For example, knowing the timing of summer and winter annual weeds and when they will show up to treat them before they flower and seed is important to stop a whole new potential generation of plants next season. - Weed control is not just about herbicides.
Applying proper care practices to your lawn, including mowing high, watering, and feeding the turf regularly will help keep your lawn thick and healthy. Proper care is shown to provide even greater protection than any herbicide program. - Understand how the weed control products work and which weeds require special herbicides.
Some weeds, like crab grass, are best prevented by pre-emergent herbicides. Post-emergent herbicides offer no preventative value and must come in contact with the plant, which means most broad leaf weeds require spraying when they are present and growing actively. Plants like Nutsedge require special herbicides.
