“How do I get rid of (insert weed name here)?” It’s one of the most common lawn care questions we get. At Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, we know that trying to control stubborn and aggressive weeds can be a challenge for Cary, SC homeowners. And we’re here to help. In fact, with our lawn weed control services, we can treat and suppress existing weeds, as well as prevent future generations from popping up.
Here’s a look at some of the most common weeds we help homeowners from Cary, Chapel Hill and Wake Forest to Durham and Apex gain control over in their lawns:
Crabgrass. If your lawn is weak, or if you have bare spots, crabgrass will take advantage and start growing. This annual grassy weed sprouts in late spring and will develop and thrive as long as it has water, light and soil. While it dies in the winter, seeds are left behind in the soil, which germinate and develop in the spring, continuing the cycle. While crabgrass won’t necessarily damage your lawn, it does detract from your yard’s overall beauty.
Dandelions. Dandelions are one of those weeds that are tenacious and aggressive. Also known as monk’s head and lion’s head, all these weeds need to grow and flourish is direct sunlight and good drainage. In addition, dandelion seeds can remain in the ground and viable for many years. And with the average dandelion consisting of 15,000 seeds, it’s easy to see how these weeds can take over your lawn.
Chickweed. Chickweed is another common lawn weed that invades local lawns. While you’re going to start noticing an infestation in the spring – when it starts growing in thinning and bare spots of your lawn – chickweed actually germinates in the fall. That means treatment and lawn weed control efforts should begin in early fall, not in spring when you’re actually seeing the weeds grow.
