Remove Weeds at the Root

Thoroughly removing weeds and their roots can help prevent regrowth and reduce future weed pressure. Hand-pulling is often effective when soil is damp, while a trowel or hoe can help remove deeper or established weeds.

Prevent Weeds Before They Emerge

Pre-emergent herbicides are designed for preventive weed control. Applied before weed seeds germinate, they can help reduce the development of unwanted plants in lawns, turf, landscape beds and other maintained areas.

Timing is critical. Always follow the product label for application timing, rates, restrictions and areas of use.

Maintain Healthier Turf

Healthy, actively growing grass can compete more effectively with unwanted vegetation. Proper mowing, watering, fertilization and turf maintenance should work together with herbicide applications when weed pressure requires additional control.

Maintaining an appropriate grass height encourages stronger turf and can reduce opportunities for weeds to establish.

Use Mulch to Help Prevent Garden Weeds

Mulch provides a physical barrier that can help block sunlight from reaching dormant weed seeds while reducing opportunities for new weeds to establish in garden beds and landscaped areas.

Combining mulch with proper maintenance and appropriate herbicide applications can create a more effective landscape weed management program.
