Bed and Walkway Weed Control
Routine weed control service for your flower beds, walkways, driveway and more. Natural and Synthetic treatments available.
Natural Applications
For natural weed control applications, we use an ammonia based weed killer along with a surfactant, both rated for organic use. Natural weed control works great in hot weather and has a very fast knockdown rate. You’ll typically notice the vegetation turning yellow/brown within a couple of hours.
Chemical Applications
A much lower cost option, which works throughout the whole season and kills the entire plant, not just the leaves. Once your weeds are under control, the amount needed for routine spraying is much less.
Natural vs Chemical Applications
Our natural weed control works much faster (results within hours) and is great in hot weather, but can have hit or miss results in temperatures below 75°F. It is also more expensive and only kills the leaves, so new growth can be quicker to return. Our applications are every 3 weeks so this faster regrowth isn’t typically a problem.
Our chemical weed control (Roundup) is slower to see results (2-3 days) but is effective throughout the growing season and can kill the entire plant, so re-growth isn’t as fast.

Which is right for you?
If you strictly use natural products, then our natural weed control application would be a better choice, but you have to be okay with some hit or miss results in cooler weather.
If you would like a more affordable, more effective option, chemical applications may be for you.
Chemical applications have their own spray tanks so you won’t have to worry about cross contamination.
