Weed Killer Treatments
About Herbicide Treatments
Perhaps one of the most frustrating aspects of gardening and landscape upkeep is combatting weeds. It may seem that no sooner do we pull up every last one that new undesired plants emerge. While it may seem that these weeds are merely taunting us or trying to drive us crazy, there are of course botanical explanations for their persistence. So, while our efforts are sincere, our approach might not be effective enough. A landscape professional with knowledge of noxious weeds and how they spread in our local gardens can provide the best treatments for keeping them at bay. Herbicides, chemical substances that eliminate unwanted plants, are generally the most direct and effective means of eradicating weeds.
Contracting with a Santa Barbara landscaper that provides proven weed control as part of its lawn service is the best way to ensure a great looking property over the long term.
Key Benefits
The offering of herbicides on the market is vast and therefore can be overwhelming to the novice gardener. While pulling by hand offers the least amount of risk—and is rather satisfying—roots and rhizomes can be left behind, almost guaranteeing that the weeds appear again. Selective herbicides, on the other hand, are formulated to control particular species with material that is toxic to certain plants.
Many homeowners, of course, have understandable unease about using chemical means for treating weeds. Concerns for children and pets or the potential for health issues in general bring about a reluctance to fight invasive species with typical weed killer treatments. Thus, organic herbicides are the answer and, when applied correctly, can be just as successful. Approaching weed control in this way is a veritable best-of-both-worlds combination which merges the accuracy and environmental sensitivity of manually removing them with the power and effectiveness of chemical herbicides.
For lawns where children and pets like to play, a landscape professional can help provide guidelines for safety and maintenance in the days following an organic herbicide treatment. The efficiency of the application is further helped by follow-up care, such as staying off the lawn, watering in the treatment, and observing any persistent weeds in the lawn that might need removal.
Why Choose Us?
SB Evolution Landscape understands its clients just as well as the company knows weeds. We offer a wide range of options for eradicating noxious plants from the garden and might even suggest a combination of methods, depending on your needs and preferences. When a selective or non-selective herbicide is recommended, we might elect to supplement the treatments with a different method such as hand weeding, particularly if they are found closer to other desired landscape plants in the garden. Likewise, if the outdoor space is an active one, an organic herbicide might be preferred in the interest of health and safety. We can help devise the right herbicide and weed treatment program for your garden.
I was very impressed with the prompt, professional service from this company. Jorge showed up to go over the tree trimming project, made helpful suggestions and answered all my questions. The team that arrived to do the project was friendly, efficient and cleaned up all the debris spotlessly. I am very pleased with the customer service and high quality of the work of this company. Thank you, SB Evolution Landscape!
I have used SB evolution landscape for 2 years, since purchase of my first home. I am very pleased with their service, from routine maintenance to clearing an entire hillside and planting a series of hydrangeas in a shady spot for me, as they are my favorite flower. They are very responsive to emails and phone calls and have given me a bouquet of flowers on completion of both bigger projects. Plus, my roses, orange trees, bamboo, callalillies, begonia and all other plants are so much healthier than when I purchased this property. Thank you Evolution!
