Is your weed control safe for my kids and pets?

Yes. We use professional-grade products applied at manufacturer-approved rates by Minnesota Department of Agriculture licensed applicators. Once the application has dried (typically 1-2 hours on a sunny day), the lawn is safe for children and pets to play on. We leave a notice at every visit with the exact re-entry time.

How long until the weeds actually die?

You will see most broadleaf weeds like dandelions and clover start curling and yellowing within 3-5 days, with complete die-off in 10-14 days. Tougher weeds like creeping Charlie and wild violet can take two applications spaced a few weeks apart. We tell you exactly what to expect at your first visit.

What weeds can you actually treat in Minnesota lawns?

Our programs target the full lineup Twin Cities homeowners deal with: dandelions, crabgrass, creeping Charlie (ground ivy), clover, plantain, thistle, wild violet, chickweed, henbit, spurge, oxalis, and more than 200 other broadleaf and grassy weeds. If you can point at it, we can usually treat it.

How many treatments will I need?

Most Twin Cities lawns need 5-6 visits per season — a spring pre-emergent for crabgrass, then post-emergent weed control combined with fertilizer through summer and fall. Heavily weed-infested lawns may need extra spot treatments the first year, which we include free between visits.

What happens if the weeds come back?

Call or text us and we are back out to re-treat at no charge — that is our guarantee. Some stubborn Minnesota weeds like creeping Charlie genuinely need multiple hits to eradicate, and we keep coming until they are gone. No contracts, no upsell pressure, just results.

Why Twin Cities Homeowners Trust Lawnworks for Weed Control

Kills 200+ Broadleaf Weeds

Dandelions, clover, creeping Charlie, plantain, thistle, violets — if it does not belong in your lawn, we target it with professional-grade post-emergent herbicide.

Pre-Emergent Stops Crabgrass

Minnesota crabgrass germinates when soil hits 55 degrees — usually late April. Our spring pre-emergent creates a barrier that stops it before it ever breaks through.

Licensed & Pet-Safe

Every technician is MN Dept. of Agriculture licensed. Products are applied at label rates and your lawn is safe for kids and pets once the application has dried — typically 1-2 hours.

Free Re-Treatments

If weeds pop back up between scheduled visits, we come back and re-treat at no charge. No contracts, no gimmicks — just a lawn you can be proud of.
