Weed Control
Weed control is a year-round program of pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicide applications that prevents and eliminates broadleaf and grassy weeds from Georgia lawns. We apply pre-emergent treatments when soil temperatures reach 55°F at a 4-inch depth — typically late February to mid-March in central Georgia — to stop crabgrass, goosegrass, and spurge before they sprout. Post-emergent spot treatments throughout the growing season target any weeds that break through, with products specifically formulated for warm-season turf grasses like Bermuda, Zoysia, and Centipede.
