Transform Your Lawn with Parrish Lawn Service Heath,Fate

 Weeds in lawns are unwanted plants that compete with grass from nutrients, water, and sunlight. Controlling weeds in lawns is a  challenge for homeowners. Here are some key points about  weeds in lawns and methods to control them.

 Here is some of the common weeds you will see in your lawn.

• Broadleaf weeds,  clover, chickweed, and plantain.
• Grassy weeds, crabgrass.

• Mowing: A regular mowing service helps control some types of weeds, especially broadleaf weeds. Mowing prevents weed seed heads from forming and spreading. Make sure you bag the clippings when you mow.

• Herbicides: Chemical herbicides can be effective in controlling weeds, and they are available in selective (targeting specific types of weeds) or non-selective (killing all plants) forms. 

• Pre-Emergent : These are applied before weed seeds germinate and can prevent the establishment of certain weeds. They are particularly useful for controlling annual grassy weeds like crabgrass. The best time to do this is in October, February.
