How to Spot Broadleaf Weeds
They typically grow in clusters or pairs and are common in many lawns throughout our service area. While these weeds can be an eyesore, they can be effectively controlled with the right approach.
The best way to manage broadleaf weeds is by maintaining a healthy, dense lawn. Healthy grass naturally crowds out weeds, making it harder for them to take hold. However, the first step in controlling broadleaf weeds is proper elimination.
One advantage of broadleaf weed control is that these weeds have a different composition than grass, so when herbicide is applied, it won’t harm your lawn. ProLawn applies targeted weed control at the optimal time during the season, ensuring the most effective treatment.
Beyond weed control, it’s important to address environmental factors that contribute to weed growth. For example, reducing shade and improving soil conditions can prevent weeds from reappearing. A key factor often overlooked is soil pH. When the soil pH is balanced, cultural practices like fertilizing and aerating become more effective, helping to improve your lawn’s overall health and minimize weed growth.
