Professional Weed Control

Eliminate dandelions, clover, crabgrass, and other weeds with our comprehensive pre-emergent and post-emergent treatment program.

Weeds compete with your grass for water, nutrients, and sunlight. Left unchecked, they'll take over your lawn. Lawnworks' professional weed control program attacks weeds on two fronts: pre-emergent treatments prevent weed seeds from germinating, while post-emergent treatments eliminate existing weeds. The result is a lawn that's naturally resistant to weed invasion.

About Our Weed Control Service

Lawnworks uses professional-grade herbicides that are more effective than consumer products while being safer when properly applied. Our pre-emergent treatments in early spring create a barrier that prevents crabgrass and other annual weeds from taking hold. Throughout the season, our post-emergent treatments target broadleaf weeds like dandelions, clover, and creeping charlie. We also address tough perennial weeds that require specialized treatment.

Weed Control FAQ

Common questions about our weed control services.

What weeds does your service control?

Lawnworks' weed control program targets dandelions, clover, creeping charlie (ground ivy), plantain, crabgrass, and most other common lawn weeds. Some weeds like nutsedge or wild violets may require specialized treatment.

When do you apply pre-emergent in Minnesota?

Timing is critical for pre-emergent effectiveness. In the Twin Cities, Lawnworks applies pre-emergent in early-to-mid April, before soil temperatures consistently reach 55°F. According to University of Minnesota Extension, crabgrass seeds germinate when soil temperature at the 2-inch depth reaches 55°F for several consecutive days — making precise timing essential.

How long before I see results from weed treatment?

Most broadleaf weeds show visible wilting within 7–10 days and are completely dead within 2–3 weeks. Tougher weeds like creeping charlie may require multiple treatments over several weeks.

Is weed control safe for my lawn?

Yes, Lawnworks uses selective herbicides that target weeds while leaving grass unharmed. We use professional-grade products at proper application rates registered with the EPA under FIFRA — which are actually safer than many consumer products applied incorrectly.
