What NOT to do if you want to control weeds in your lawn.

Just a reminder for you...there is never, never, never a reason to skip a mow for the sake of controlling weeds.

We see this happen all the time, and here is how it usually plays out:

1) "I have a service coming within the next week or two to treat my lawn, so I'm just going to hold off on mowing until they come".

👆🏻 bad idea. Mow your lawn every week unless weather prohibits, your applications will be more effective if you do. The bigger your weeds get, the more they spread and the harder they are to kill.

2) The flip side of number 1...."I just treated my lawn, I'm going to wait until I see the weeds are dead before mowing again".

👆🏻 an even worse idea than #1. Water your application in, give the application 24-48 hrs, then mow whether you see dead weeds or not. This will speed up the killing process and, again, your applications will be much more effective.

Mow, mow, mow!!!
