Fertilization & Weed Control Information

Why are there so many weeds in my lawn?

Weeds are just like any other plant, so they grow along with other vegetation throughout your yard. As such, they need to be managed and maintained properly. When weeds take over your lawn and are not taken care of, there are a variety of consequences to consider.

Not only do weeds cause a visual disturbance to your lovely lawn, but they also compromise plant growth. Weeds take up space, nutrients, soil, and water that the other plants around your yard would otherwise use. Weeds will expose your plants and crops to pathogens, diseases, and dangerous insects. They can also block drainage pipes and interfere with effective lawn care practices.

What kind of weeds are typically in yards?

Some of the more common weeds found in yards include annual bluegrass, bermudagrass, burclover, crabgrass, nutsedge, starthistle, wisteria, and woodsorrel. The best way to protect your lawn and garden from invasive weeds is to rely on help from the experts at DeRosa Landscaping. We offer year-round weed control and lawn fertilization that you can depend on.

Does weed killer kill grass?

As mentioned previously, weeds are like any other plant. So, it begs the question, will the use of weed killer destroy the grass throughout your yard? It’s a valid concern, but the answer to that question is no. We use specific weed killers and herbicides that target the enzymes in weeds while leaving the enzymes in your grass alone.
