There are a lot of reasons why weeds may be abundant in your lawn and it’s often difficult to pinpoint the specific cause.  The best defense against weeds is a good offense!  A healthy, hearty, actively green growing lawn will choke out weeds, diseases and insects better than a sparse lawn.  Proper weed and crabgrass control treatment is the right offense that will produce the lush green weed free lawn you always desired.

 After aerating, plan on applying a professional "weed and feed" fertilizer.  The fertilizer carries a granule herbicide for post emergent broadleaf weeds.  After applying the weed and feed fertilizer, apply a granule pre-emergent herbicide that will control crabgrass, other annual grasses and broadleaf weeds.

 A post emergent herbicide will knock down weeds that have already germinated and are actively growing.  The pre-emergence herbicide works by forming a barrier in the soil, preventing weed seedlings from germinating.  These safe and powerful post and pre-emergence granule herbicide will stop weeds dead in their tracks.
