Trust us to care for your lawn in West Lake Hills, and we will banish invasive plants while leaving you with a gorgeous green lawn that boasts an even covering of turfgrass.
Addressing the Different Varieties of Weeds in West Lake Hills
Wondering which of these weeds could currently be causing trouble for your yard? Here’s a quick overview of the main categories of invasive plant species, as well as our approach to tackling them.
Broadleaf Weeds
Identifying broadleaf weeds is quite straightforward thanks to their wide leaves and, in some species, their flowers. Take dandelions, for example. You’ll immediately know that these plants don’t belong on your lawn. So how to get rid of them? One of our approaches is to target them with post-emergent herbicides, a specific type of formula that eradicates mature weeds by penetrating their leaves and sinking down into their root system. Unlike pulling them out by hand, which can leave behind pieces that later regenerate, this approach kills off the plant completely.
Grassy Weeds
When it comes to spotting weeds, grassy varieties are a bit trickier. These have the ability to blend into turfgrass and may go unnoticed until they have spread quite extensively. They also do well under similar circumstances to turfgrass species, and the steps you might take to knock them out could potentially harm your grass. Leave it to us to carefully apply pre-emergents to your yard to prevent grassy weed varieties from taking over by inhibiting their germination process.
