OVERVIEW
Our Crabgrass Management service works over time to eliminate this ugly weed grass that invades an otherwise beautiful lawn. Crabgrass seeds can blow in from neighbouring yards or fields and remain dormant for many years. Only when these seeds receive the right amount of sun, moisture and contact with soil will they germinate. They are annual plants that propagate themselves by releasing thousands of seeds each year from each plant.
WHO NEEDS IT?
- Customers will recognize crabgrass in their lawn by its distinctive low growing habit, wide leaf blades and seed tillers. Often people will confuse it with Tall Fescue or Quack Grass
- Turns purple in the fall.
- Usually located near curbs and driveways.
- Normally on older more established lawns.
HOW OFTEN?
Crabgrass treatments are classified as pre-emergent and post-emergent. Your LawnSavers Plant Health Specialist is trained to determine the appropriate method and timing of treatment. Treatments normally need to be made for several years to control this persistent weed grass.
BENEFITS
Crabgrass is invasive and will spread through a lawn, eventually crowding out desirable grasses. LawnSavers can rid your lawn of an existing problem and work to prevent it from re-occurring.
PROCESS
Our treatment targets the specific areas that crabgrass is growing and/or tends to grow. Pre-emergent treatment prevents seeds from germinating in the first place by creating a protective barrier around the seed. Post-emergent treatment enters the existing plant and destroys it down to the roots.
PRICE
Starting at $52.45 for 2000 sq.ft. $62.95 for up to 4000 sq.ft.
