PRE-EMERGENT APPLICATIONS Features
Targeted Application
Our pre-emergent applications are carefully timed and expertly applied to target weeds before they start. By creating a barrier at the soil level, these herbicides effectively prevent weed seeds from germinating. This preemptive approach is essential for maintaining clean and attractive landscaping without the need for extensive manual weeding.
Customized Treatment Plans
Every lawn and garden is unique, which is why we customize our pre-emergent treatment plans based on your specific landscaping elements and local weed profiles. We assess your property’s conditions, such as soil type, existing vegetation, and typical weed challenges, to formulate a plan that provides the best protection against weed growth.
Safe and Effective Products
We are committed to using only the highest quality pre-emergent herbicides that are safe for your lawn, plants, and the environment. Our team is trained in the safe handling and application of these products, ensuring they are used effectively while minimizing impact on non-target plants and your local ecosystem.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should pre-emergent be applied?
For best results, pre-emergent herbicides should be applied twice a year, in the early spring and fall. This schedule helps prevent a broad range of weeds from taking hold during the growing season.
Can pre-emergent herbicides affect my flowers or vegetables?
When applied correctly, pre-emergent herbicides do not harm established plants. They are designed to target weed seeds only. However, care must be taken not to apply them in areas where you plan to sow seeds directly, as they can inhibit germination.
What happens if weeds have already started growing?
Pre-emergent herbicides will not kill existing weeds. If weeds are already present, we will need to use different methods, such as post-emergent herbicides or manual removal, to address these weeds before applying a pre-emergent for future prevention.
