Services
Fiesta Weed Control
Our Fiesta Weed Control uses iron-based chemistry to eliminate broadleaf weeds without harming turfgrass. This federally approved solution works within 24-48 hours, targeting weeds like dandelions and clover through cellular iron toxicity. The selective treatment preserves lawn health while eliminating over 25 weed species, with rain-fast results in just three hours.
Core Aeration
This essential lawn maintenance service creates 4-inch deep soil channels to improve air, water, and nutrient penetration. Annual aeration reduces compaction, thatch buildup, and improves root development. The process leaves soil cores on the surface that naturally break down within 1-2 weeks, enhancing soil structure and microbial activity.
Nematode Grub Control
Our biological grub control uses beneficial nematodes to target white grubs and other lawn pests. These microscopic organisms seek out and destroy insect larvae while remaining completely safe for humans, pets, and plants. Applied in spring or early fall, this organic solution requires daily watering for two weeks to establish effective pest control.
Custom Fertilization
We develop tailored fertilization plans using controlled-release products with slow nutrient delivery. Our programs include calcitic lime applications to balance soil pH and organic kelp extracts that enhance root development. Fertilizer blends are adjusted seasonally and applied every 4-6 weeks using precision equipment for even coverage.
Slitseeding
This advanced overseeding technique plants seeds directly into soil through precise slits, ensuring optimal seed-to-soil contact. Ideal for repairing damaged areas, the process uses certified grass varieties suited to local conditions. Requires daily watering and 1-3 weeks for germination, with best results when combined with core aeration.
Questions
How often should I aerate my lawn?
Annual core aeration in spring or fall is recommended to maintain healthy soil structure and root development.
Does fertilizer application require watering?
Our granular fertilizers don't require immediate watering as they're designed to release nutrients gradually without burning turf.
What's the best crabgrass prevention method?
Pre-emergent application in early spring stops crabgrass germination, with post-emergent options available for early-stage infestations.
How does Fiesta Weed Control work?
This iron-based herbicide targets broadleaf weeds through cellular toxicity while leaving turfgrass unaffected, showing results in 24-48 hours.
Can I walk on newly slitseeded areas?
Avoid foot traffic until seeds germinate (1-3 weeks) to ensure proper establishment of new grass growth.
Are nematodes safe for pets and children?
Yes, our biological pest control uses 100% organic nematodes that pose no risk to humans or animals while controlling lawn pests.
