Everything You Need to Know

Clear answers about our weed control services.

Most residential properties are treated in 30-60 minutes. Larger commercial properties vary based on size and scope. We'll provide a time estimate during your free assessment. Our technicians work efficiently without rushing, ensuring complete coverage of all problem areas.
We use products registered by the EPA and follow all label directions for re-entry intervals. Generally, people and pets can safely return to treated areas once the spray has dried, typically within 1-2 hours. We provide specific guidelines for your property after treatment. Our products are designed for residential use when applied according to label directions.
Post-emergent treatments often show visible results within 48 hours. Weeds may appear to wilt or turn brown as the herbicide takes effect. Complete control and death of the weed can take 1-2 weeks depending on weed type, weather conditions, and the product used. Pre-emergent treatments prevent new weeds from appearing, so you won't see active results but will notice fewer weeds overall.
Not necessarily. We just need access to your property. Gate codes, keybox codes, or instructions for locked areas help us complete the job efficiently. We always leave a door hanger with details about what was done, when re-entry is safe, and any other important information. If you prefer to be home, we're happy to schedule around your availability.
We primarily serve Lena and surrounding communities in Louisiana. We also cover nearby areas including Alexandria, Pineville, and communities throughout Central Louisiana. Contact us to confirm service availability in your specific area. We continue to expand our service territory based on demand and proximity to our base location.
For most Louisiana lawns, we recommend treatments every 4-6 weeks during the active growing season (March through October). This provides consistent protection against both existing weeds and new germination. Our seasonal programs include 4-6 treatments per year tailored to your specific needs and budget.
We treat all common Louisiana lawn weeds including dandelions, clover, crabgrass, nutsedge, plantain, thistle, annual bluegrass, and many others. Our technicians are trained to identify weed species and select the appropriate products for effective control. We also offer specialized treatments for stubborn perennial weeds that may require multiple applications.
Pre-emergent treatments prevent weed seeds from germinating and are applied before weeds appear, typically in early spring or late summer. Post-emergent treatments kill existing weeds that are already growing and can be applied anytime you have an active infestation. Most comprehensive programs use both: pre-emergent for prevention and post-emergent for any weeds that slip through.
Yes, we offer comprehensive commercial weed management for HOAs, apartment complexes, office parks, retail properties, and municipal facilities. Commercial programs include flexible scheduling (including early morning and weekend appointments), detailed service reports, and customizable treatment plans. Contact us for a custom quote based on your property size and needs.
Residential treatments start at $89 per visit for full lawn coverage. Spot treatments start at $49. Commercial pricing is custom based on acreage and frequency. We offer seasonal programs that provide savings compared to single treatments. All quotes are provided upfront with no hidden fees. We believe in honest, transparent pricing.
Our products are designed to be rain-resistant once they've dried, typically 1-2 hours after application. Heavy rain shortly after application may reduce effectiveness somewhat, but shouldn't require a full retreat in most cases. If significant rain occurs within 24 hours of treatment and you notice reduced results, we'll return for a touch-up at no additional charge.
We'll mow your lawn 1-2 days before treatment for best results. Remove any toys, furniture, or other items from the treatment area. Ensure gates are unlocked and accessible. If you have specific watering restrictions or pool concerns, let us know when scheduling. We provide detailed preparation instructions when confirming your appointment.
