The community standards corner this month is about treating weeds in the lawn. The best way to prevent weeds is to have a healthy and thick lawn. Please read below for steps you can take to make sure your yard stays beautiful.
First, spray weed control that kills broadleaf weeds without hurting the grass. This will get rid of existing broadleaf weeds like dandelions and clover. Next, use pre-emergent each spring to prevent annual weeds like crabgrass from growing in the lawn. You'll want to then fertilize your lawn periodically throughout the spring, summer, and fall months. This will help strengthen your grass. Finally, after killing the perennial weed grasses, aerate and overseed your lawn (especially the parts where perennial weed grasses were growing) to help thicken your grass the next spring. Also, please remember to remove weeds before you mow your lawn, as this can spread the seeds and worsen the problem.
