Questions Homeowners Ask Before Getting Started
We treat weeds in a variety of landscape areas, including shrub beds, mulch beds, rock beds, foundation plantings, garden beds, and other landscaped areas around your property. Our treatments are selected based on the types of weeds present and the plants growing nearby
Yes. Pre-emergent products can be used in appropriate landscape beds to help prevent certain weeds from germinating. They work best as part of an ongoing weed control program and do not prevent every type of weed.
Weeds can continue to return in shrub beds for several reasons. Weed seeds are already present in the soil, while additional seeds can be introduced by wind, birds, animals, and surrounding vegetation. Mulch and landscape beds also provide open areas of soil where new weeds can easily germinate. Some weeds have extensive root systems that make them more difficult to control, and pre-emergent products, while effective at preventing many weeds from developing, do not prevent every type of weed. Weeds can also continue to spread into treated beds from nearby untreated areas, which is why ongoing weed control is often necessary to keep landscape beds looking clean and well maintained.
For the best results, our shrub bed weed control program is recommended on a monthly basis throughout the growing season. Recurring treatments are necessary to keep up with new weed growth and prevent weeds from becoming established in your landscape beds.
Weeds typically take 7–10 days to die off after treatment, although the amount of time can vary depending on the type of weed and current weather conditions. You may notice weeds beginning to wilt or change color before they are completely dead, so it is normal for treated weeds to remain visible for several days after an application.
No. Lawn and shrub bed treatments are performed during separate visits because they require different application processes and different products for the best results and effectiveness. Keeping these services separate allows us to use the appropriate treatment for each area and properly address weeds while protecting your lawn, shrubs, ornamental plants, and other landscape vegetation.
Depending on the location and type of weeds present, organic or reduced-risk options may be available. These options work differently and often require more frequent visits, especially in beds. We can discuss the best approach for your property and recommend a treatment based on the specific conditions of your landscape beds.
Yes. Poison ivy can be treated in landscape beds and other areas where it is growing. Because poison ivy can cause a significant skin reaction, it should be handled carefully and treated appropriately to help prevent continued growth.
Poison ivy can take longer to control because it is extremely persistent and hard to control. New growth can also emerge from the root system, which is why poison ivy may take longer to completely die back than other weeds. Treatments need time to move through the plant and into the roots, and established plants may require multiple applications to achieve effective control.
