I received a great little newsletter in the mail yesterday from my plumber/heat/air maintenance company. Who knew they were also experts in lawn care? Their tip today is to eliminate weeds before winter.
Weeds not only germinate in the fall, but they also can leave behind seeds that will germinate in the spring. Applying a weed control in the fall will kill weeds in the lawn and reduce the number that pop up in the spring. Before you get started, make sure to identify the weeds so you can choose the proper herbicide.
I have a problem with some vine that is trying to take over the front of my house. I’ve pulled that thing down at least a dozen times this summer and it remains tenacious. I’ll be taking some photos of it to my local garden center to see if the experts there can give advice on how to rid my lawn of it.
