Sometimes you may even feel like ten weeds have taken the place of the one you just killed. If you want nothing more than a flourishing lawn without all the hassle of yard work, you’ll want to hire professional weed control services in Boynton Beach.

Major Benefits of Hiring Weed Control Services for Your Commercial Lawn

If you want to keep your business looking good from its exterior, you’ll want to stay proactive in the fight against weeds. Why wait for these undesirable plants to grow and spread until they completely take over your commercial lawn? Let the pros handle your weed issues while keeping your landscape green and healthy!  

They’re Highly Trained To Handle the Job

Many people who choose to go the DIY weed-killing route make the huge mistake of using store-bought solutions to fix their weed problems. These products contain toxic chemicals that can hurt humans, animals, and plants.  

The last thing you want is to kill healthy grass in the area that you sprayed the weed killer, harm the trees in your landscape, or suffer the consequences of breathing in spray mist. While killing weeds may be important, it’s not really worth the risk. Alternatively, trusted professionals are trained to handle weed control solutions that won’t compromise your health or cause harm to animals and plants.  

They Produce Long-term Results

DIY solutions aren’t sustainable because store-bought weed-killing solutions require you to spray each new weed that sprouts back up. As the seasons wear on, your commercial lawn would have dead spots all around it.   

On the other hand, weed control specialists offer effective and hassle-free weed spray services that can eliminate a wide variety of invasive weeds. To ensure lasting results, they begin with an inspection of your lawn to assess its condition before creating a customized plan to control the weeds on your property.  

They Provide Season-Based Treatments

Identifying your lawn care habits that promote weed growth is extremely important because lawn care and weed control vary from season to season. Working with an expert can help you put an end to those bad habits and achieve that lush scape of grass all year round.  

They Negate an Unintentional Spread

With DIY weed killing, you won’t be able to tell the long-term effects it will have on your commercial lawn. Since the spray covers a wider berth than you may have initially thought, you may end up causing an unintentional spread of those toxic chemicals throughout your landscape. Moreover, when the wind carries the chemicals all around your lawn, they can cause your grass and plants to die by accident.  

When the professionals apply their weed control services, they’re certain about how their treatments will affect your lawn. They use safe but effective sprays that prevent weed growth while keeping your delicate plants safe in the process.

Did you wake up and find areas of your grass seemed to have yellowed overnight? Do you notice these yellow and brown patches of grass are forming in an irregular, donut-like shape? If you answered yes to these questions, you may have a lawn fungus called brown patch.

 

Causes of Brown Patch Fungus

 

Summer in Palm Beach County is hot, humid and sunny; what we at East Coast Sprayers like to call the brown patch trifecta. Brown patch fungus typically develops (but remains dormant) during the cooler months when the temperature is below 80 degrees, but flourishes in the summer when the heat and humidity conditions are just right. Over watering your lawn during the summer months can increase your chances of a fungus outbreak.

 

Brown Patch Fungus Preventative Tips

 

  • Water in the morning, giving your lawn time to dry out before nightfall
  • Mow your lawn frequently to help dry out leaf blades
  • Shut off your sprinkler system during periods of heavy summer rain
  • Avoid high levels of nitrogen – fast release form especially! 
  • Continue pre and post-emergent weed control to avoid sprouting weeds in those thinning areas
  • Fertilize your lawn to replenish vital nutrients necessary to fight off fungus and disease
  • Use preventative fungicides from May to September 

If you have already noticed signs of brown patch fungus, it’s too late for preventative treatments. Not to worry! Brown patch doesn’t typically kill a lawn. Your grass can grow new blades come spring with proper care and spring-time lawn fertilization

As a resident of Palm Beach County, you have more than likely had an experience with dollarweed in your lawn. With the heavy rains leading us into summer, you are bound to find this water-loving weed popping up in your yard, ruining the beautiful curb appeal you’ve worked so hard to have. So what is dollarweed and how can you control it? East Coast Sprayers has some easy tips to keep your lawn weed free!

 

What is Dollarweed?

 

Dollarweed is a type of warm-season perennial weed that appears in areas with excessive moisture (hence why it loves to grow in Palm Beach County!). It is a fast spreading weed that can quickly overpower your landscape, causing extreme destruction if left unmanaged. Dollarweed is silver dollar shaped, which gives it its name. The leaves are a round, lily pad shape and are bright green in color.

 

How Can I Control Dollarweed?

 

If you have dollarweed in your yard, don’t think about eradication. Your best bet is controlling the weed infestation and removing the issues that cause it to grow. Here are our tips on taking back control of your yard:

 

  1. First, reduce your irrigation or watering frequency. Dollarweed thrives in overly wet areas, and since it can float, it can’t drown! The rule of thumb should always be 1 inch of water a week for optimal growth in your plants and lawn.
  2. Keep your grass a little longer. Dollarweed is especially fond of thin, week grass. Cutting your grass too short can expose your lawn to thinning, making it susceptible to infestation.
  3. Properly mulch your landscape beds. Keeping the mulch around your shrubs, flowers, and trees at a 3 in thickness to keep the dollarweed from growing.
  4. Finally, if all other steps do not prevail, East Coast Sprayers recommends applying a herbicide weed control method. Herbicides should be chosen specifically for your type of grass and season.
