You mow every week, you water when you are supposed to… and the weeds still show up. Some creep across the ground, others shoot seed heads above the grass, and a few tough ones seem to come back no matter what you spray from the store.

Why Weeds Keep Coming Back?

Weeds are not just random “bad plants.” They are a sign that something in the lawn is out of balance. You are more likely to see them when:

- Turf is thin and bare soil is exposed.
- Soil is compacted, so roots stay shallow and weak.
- Fertilizer has been applied unevenly or at the wrong time.
- Only the tops of weeds have been burned off, leaving roots untouched.

If the grass is struggling, weeds will gladly take the open space. That is why successful weed control always includes a plan to help the lawn itself.

How Farrow Weed Control Works?

Our program targets weeds at different stages of their life cycle, while supporting the turf so it can fill in and defend itself.

Pre-Emergent Weed Control

The best time to control many weeds is before they ever break the surface. We use pre-emergent products that create a barrier in the upper soil layer, stopping new weed seeds from sprouting.

This step is especially important for:

Annual grassy weeds like crabgrass and goosegrass
Many seasonal broadleaf weeds that show up in big flushes

Timing matters. We schedule pre-emergent treatments around soil temperatures and seasonal conditions, not just the calendar, so they are in place when those seeds are ready to germinate.

Post-Emergent Weed Control

Even with good pre-emergent coverage, some weeds will still appear. For those, we use selective post-emergent herbicides chosen for your grass type and weed mix.

During a visit, your technician will:

Walk the yard and identify the weeds that are actually present
Focus treatments on problem areas instead of spraying everything blindly
Use products designed to target broadleaf and grassy weeds while leaving your turfgrass alone

Stubborn types like clover, dandelion, dollarweed, or sedge may need extra attention, and we factor that into your plan.

Support For Thicker, Stronger Turf

The more complete the grass cover, the fewer chances weeds have to get started.

We do not just chase weeds. We help your turf become competitive enough that weeds have a hard time coming back.

As part of our lawn program, we look at:

Fertilization – Making sure your lawn gets the right nutrients at the right time.
Mowing practices – Encouraging proper mowing height so grass can shade the soil.
Soil and compaction – Recommending aeration or other services if the soil is too hard.

What Types Of Weeds Do We Treat?

Every lawn is different, but our weed control programs commonly target:

- Broadleaf weeds (like clover, plantain, dandelion, dollarweed).
- Grassy weeds (like crabgrass and other unwanted grasses).
- Sedges and other tough, moisture-loving invaders in low, wet spots.

If there is something unusual on your property, we’ll identify it and explain the best way to handle it.

What To Expect Over Time?

Most lawns do not become weedy overnight, and they do not become perfect after a single application.

We aim for steady, noticeable improvement—not a quick green-up that fades in a month.

With regular weed control built into your Farrow lawn program, you should see:

Fewer new weeds appearing each season.
Problem patches shrinking instead of expanding.
A more even, uniform look across the yard.
Less time spent pulling or spot-spraying weeds on your own.

How Weed Control Fits With Farrow Lawn Services?

Weed Control is one part of a larger plan to keep your lawn healthy and easy to live with. It works especially well alongside:

Lawn Care

Fertilization, soil health, and overall turf management.

Lawn Pest Control

Addressing insects and grubs that thin the grass and give weeds more room.

Perimeter Pest Control & General Pest Control

Protecting the transition between lawn and home so pests are not moving back and forth.

Because we are already looking at your yard for insects, disease, and turf health, we can adjust weed control as conditions change.

When To Call About Weed Control?

It is a good time to bring in help if you notice:

The same weeds returning in the same areas year after year.
Large patches of weeds where grass used to be thick.
Thin, patchy turf even though you are fertilizing and mowing.
DIY products that seem to work for a week, then stop making a difference.

You do not have to know the name of every weed out there that is our job.
