WeedFree Lawns

What’s the homeowner’s advantage to using a professional weed control service? 

As professionals, we have licenses that allow us to buy more robust products and we have licensed applicators who know how to professionally apply these products. Weed Free Lawns is a Nelson Landscaping Company, and we have 15 years of experience in lawn management and weed control. 

What’s the best time of the year to begin treatment? 

The earlier in the year the better. The “pre” in pre-emergent means that we apply products that prevent weeds from germinating in a yard. It’s a really important step. It’s much easier to prevent weeds from coming up than using a post-emergent where we have to kill an existing weed. And while your grass is dormant in the winter, it’s more susceptible to getting winter weeds like crabgrass in it. 

Why is testing the soil important before treating the lawn? 

For lawns that have recurring issues, it is a service we can provide to help diagnose an issue. Then we know what to apply to the yard to achieve what the client wants. How do you determine what type of weed control and fertilization are needed? 

The type of grass and it’s microclimate will determine what products are best suited for a specific yard. 

What grasses grow best in Oklahoma’s climate? 

The grasses we see most in Oklahoma are Bermuda and Fescue. We have clients who also have Zoysia grass. 

What can homeowners do to better maintain their lawn after a treatment? 

The most important thing to do after a treatment is to water it in. The liquid applications we apply have 60 days of residual if the client will water the product into the soil. It’s a very important thing to do to achieve the best results. It’s also essential to water after we apply a granular fertilizer, starting in early spring and throughout the summer. 

How many applications will I need to see results? 

We offer a “weed free guarantee” when you sign up for our 8-applications program. With this, we offer free service calls to come out and spray those stubborn spots that even with regular treatment just won’t go away.
