A beautiful lawn is a weed free lawn. Your Lawn Doctor operative can apply selective liquid herbicide spray to your lawn to control broadleaf weeds in the grass. Examples of just some of the weeds you may find in your lawn, which Countrywide Lawn Doctor can help to eradicate;

Broadleaf weeds usually take up to 2 weeks to show signs of control. It is only possible to control weeds in the lawn, not eradicate them. Tougher broadleaf weeds may take multiple applications to show results. Broadleaf weeds can only be controlled if they are present and actively growing at the time of application. Fairway Green will use broadleaf weed control with each application when necessary for this reason.

SpeedZone® Lawn Weed Killer in the ready-to-use (RTU) gallon or quart will give visual results on most broadleaf weeds in just hours.

Answer: To control weeds, you can over-seed your lawn twice a year (early spring & early fall) to help prevent weed growth. Mowing your lawn high (4-inches or more) shades out most weed seeds and prevents them from germinating, while also slowing growth (for less frequent mowing) and strengthening the immune system of the grass. Keeping your grass unstressed by providing proper light, water, and nutrients will produce a crop of very thick turf.

Prevention is always better than cure. If a Sir Walter lawn is kept in a healthy and well fertilised condition, weed eradication is rarely necessary. If in the rare circumstance weed spray is required, we suggest that you first heavily fertilise when weeds are noticed, followed by at least two mowings in a three-week period. This will usually reduce the problem to a minimum. If spraying is still required, there are several herbicides that can be used.

Answer: We follow City Code on this issue. The Parks and Recreation Department takes calls from concerned individuals about grass that is over 1' tall or weeds that are on a property that has not been properly maintained. A certified letter is sent to both the property owner and the occupant. A timeline is given for the situation to be remedied. If it is not, the Parks staff or a private contractor mows the area and the property owner is billed accordingly. Refer to City Code link http://city.

It is important that the cuttings are removed from the water. Not only is it unsightly to leave them there, but large volumes of decomposing plant material can adversely affect the ecology. Additionally, certain plants, such as Eurasian Milfoil, can propagate from the fragments. The cuttings are typically raked to shore, where they can be removed via nets or pitch forks. In the summer of 2007, we will have a boat-mounted rake available for purchase.

You should go to your doctor to get the tick removed if it has buried itself deep into your skin. This usually happens if the tick has been on you for several hours, or even a day or two. When a tick has burrowed deep into your skin, it is very hard to remove the tick without leaving some mouth parts behind, which can cause an infection.

The Lawn Doctor provides a year round lawn service offering lawn treatments to fertilise, weed and moss treat domestic lawns.

No, you must either kill weeds first and then wait 3-4 weeks to seed, or seed first and then wait until the new seed has germinated and been mowed at least twice (about six weeks) before applying a broadleaf weed killer.

You have to understand that pre-emergent weed control will only get the weed seeds that have not germinated yet and that most pre-emergents do not last an entire growing season. Pre-emergents are greatly affected by the amount of rainfall and water your lawn receives.

The majority of pre-emergents prevent germination for all types of seeds. A newer pre-emergent under the name Tupersan is a selective pre-emergent that can be used at the time of seeding to prevent weed seed germination and allow grass seed germination.

In a flowerbed, a weed might be a misplaced plug of grass. For a wheat farmer, a weed may be a patch of yellow mustard. Since The Forest Service’s mission is “caring for the land and serving people,” our weeds are those plants that harm our natural resources or the people who enjoy them.

All our representatives have to successfully complete chemical application training and examination at local horticultural colleges, which is legal requirement. They also undertake further a comprehensive training programme which also includes health and safety issues.

In most cases, yes. All of our doctors are trained in the latest endoscopic techniques. Most polyps can be removed at the time of colonoscopy. Rarely, a polyp is too big or too flat to remove and surgery is necessary. In fact, since Three Rivers Endoscopy Center opened in 1996, our doctors have removed tens of thousands of polyps. Each polyp removed is a potential colon cancer prevented.

A healthy vigorous Canturf lawn is the first line of defense. See our lawn care guide for more information.
