Keep Your Lawn Weed-Free With Our Professional Weed Control Amarillo, TX

Amarillo, TX lawn experts recommend scheduling pre-emergent weed treatment in the early spring. As soon as the ground begins to defrost, the soil will immediately become vulnerable to unwanted sprouts. We recommend scheduling a service in March or April to make sure pesky plants don't start popping up as soon as your grass begins to grow for the season. You can also do this at the end of the summer, just before the ground begins to freeze, to allow the soil to be coated with herbicides during the winter months.

On the other hand, you can seek help any time of the year for weed management. Amarillo, TX lawn care professionals understand you can't always prevent weed growth, and once those stubborn pests have planted themselves in your yard, it can feel like a never-ending battle to get rid of them. We can pull weeds by hand, spray organic herbicides, or apply chemical pesticides in the summer, fall, or spring.

Amarillo, TX weed control methods all have their own pros and cons. Overall, pre-emergent herbicide treatments are the most effective form of weed control. This is because protecting the soil from weed sprouts is much easier than trying to kill weeds once they have already taken over your lawn. Here are a couple of the pros and cons of each post-emergent weed removal technique:

• Weeding by hand: If you want the current weeds on your lawn plucked out from the root rather than sprayed with treatments, there is always traditional hand-pulling weed removal. Amarillo, TX homeowners will find that while this shows immediate results in making your lawn weed-free for a few days, it does not directly address the problem, as the soil will continue to sprout the seeds unless treated with an herbicide or pesticide. We offer ongoing weed removal services, so you can schedule us to pull weeds weekly, but this doesn't address the issue. Therefore, it's best to get weed-pulling services in addition to another treatment.
• Chemical pesticides: When your lawn is more weed than grass, it may be time to choose a strong pesticide for weed control. Amarillo, TX homeowners have to be wary when using these pesticides because they can be extremely toxic and harmful to humans and the environment. That being said, when it is necessary to use these chemicals, you can keep them contained as much as possible by placing a sign on your lawn telling people not to step on the grass and to avoid watering your lawn for a few days.
• Organic herbicides: With natural weed removal herbicides, you benefit by having an entirely non-toxic and environmentally friendly solution sprayed on your property. This means you don't have to worry about pets or children touching the grass after treatments, and it won't make your garden infested with non-organic pesticides. While this is a great natural alternative, it won't be as effective as chemical weed management. Amarillo, TX lawns won't see results as quickly or as effectively as you would with the traditional pesticides, which means that multiple treatments are necessary for optimal results.
