Bed Weed Control
Tired of weeds taking over your landscape beds? Our bed weed control program uses pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments to keep your beds clean and beautiful all season long.
Stop Fighting a Losing Battle
Pulling weeds by hand is exhausting and temporary — they come right back. Our bed weed control program attacks the problem at every stage: preventing new seeds from germinating, killing active weeds at the root, and creating a long-lasting barrier that keeps beds clean between visits.
Why Landscape Beds Get So Weedy
Landscape beds are weed magnets. The loose, nutrient-rich soil and open sunlight create ideal growing conditions for invasive plants. Wind, birds, and even mulch deliveries introduce thousands of weed seeds every year. Without a proactive control program, you're playing catch-up all season.
The key is a multi-layered approach: pre-emergent barriers stop seeds before they sprout, post-emergent treatments kill what's already growing, and proper mulch coverage adds a physical layer of suppression. Our program combines all three for beds that stay clean.
Our Seasonal Program
Early Spring
Pre-emergent barrier application before weed seeds germinate. This is the most critical treatment — it prevents problems before they start.
Summer Treatments
2-3 targeted post-emergent treatments throughout the growing season to eliminate any weeds that break through the barrier.
Late Season
Final treatment to knock out fall-germinating weeds and set up a cleaner start for next spring.
What's Included
- Pre-emergent weed barrier application in early spring
- 2-3 targeted post-emergent treatments during the season
- Safe for existing plants, shrubs, and flowers
- Spot treatments between scheduled visits as needed
- Coverage of all landscape beds, tree rings, and borders
- Cleaner beds with dramatically less manual weeding
- Products selected for your specific bed types and plantings
For Best Results: The Triple Combo
Our most popular landscape package combines bed weed control + fresh edging + mulch installation. The pre-emergent goes down first, then we edge and mulch on top — creating three layers of weed defense.
Clients who use this combination see up to 90% fewer weeds compared to mulch alone. It's the closest thing to a "set it and forget it" solution for landscape beds.
