Weed Control

What to Expect – Get the Most Out of Bill’s Home Service’s Weed Control

After we service your yard, the weed will curl up in a few days. They should disappear completely in two to three weeks after the weed control application.

After the application, we will make several follow-up activities to ensure the weed is completely dried from the garden. Here are some tips to ensure the weed control products work as expected:

• Don’t allow kids and pets in the yard until the product dries, typically 1-4 hours after the application.
• When used properly by trained professionals, herbicides are effective and safe to use, with no negative effects on people, pets, or the environment.
• Weed control is an ongoing process and becomes more effective with each treatment. Each year, we should see about a 50% reduction in total weed activity over the previous year.
• Be proactive by keeping your yard trimmed and watered to improve the growth of your plants.

Weed Issues That Tucson, AZ Homeowners Face

Tucson homeowners commonly have to deal with a wide variety of weeds, including Prostrate or spotted Spurge, London Rocket, Russian Thistle, Annual Bluegrass, Crabgrass, and Bermuda grass. Each of these weeds can be a nuisance to homeowners, as they can take over gardens, flower beds, and yards, robbing plants of their nutrients, water, and sunlight.

• Prostrate or spotted Spurge can be found in dry, sandy, and disturbed soil. It sprouts quickly, producing many tiny flowers, and can be difficult to remove once established.
• London Rocket is an invasive weed that can take over large areas and grows rapidly, becoming harder and harder to control over time.
• Russian Thistle is an annual grass-like weed that has a deep taproot that can make it hard to pull out.
• Annual Bluegrass is a cool-season weed that can quickly take over a yard, requiring frequent aeration and dethatching.
• Crabgrass is a warm-season weed that can spread quickly and choke out desirable grasses.
• Bermudagrass is an aggressive, warm-season weed that forms dense mats and spreads rapidly, requiring frequent mowing.

Homeowners can combat these weeds with a variety of methods, including regular mowing, hand-weeding, chemical herbicides, and mulching. Each weed requires a different approach depending on its growth and spreading habits, and it is important to use the right technique to ensure the weed’s removal. With professional care and maintenance, Tucson homeowners can have a beautiful, weed-free yard.
