Weed Man Can Help Get Rid of This Stubborn Lawn Invader
Crabgrass is very aggressive and opportunistic. It will take over and crowd out your healthy grass if left unchecked.
When crabgrass dies off, it exposes ugly bare spots that invite erosion, weeds, and future infestations.
Crabgrass thrives with very little care, making DIY removal difficult and often short-lived.
“All-in-1” products rarely solve the problem long-term. Without a professional plan, crabgrass will come back year after year.
The right treatment, applied at the right time, stops crabgrass before it spreads and restores balance to your lawn.
Effective crabgrass control often takes more than one season, but starting now means fewer weeds, healthier grass, and long-lasting results.
Crabgrass is an annual grassy weed that germinates in the spring and thrives in thin, stressed lawns. It grows quickly, spreads aggressively, and crowds out healthy turf. With its bright lime-green colour, crabgrass disrupts the uniform look of your lawn and draws unwanted attention. When it dies in the fall, it leaves behind unsightly bare patches that are vulnerable to future weed infestations.
It’s not easy, and you probably don’t want to do it yourself.
The best crabgrass control strategies are ongoing and include:
A thick, healthy, and well-maintained lawn is always the best defence against crabgrass and other unwanted lawn invaders.
Smooth crabgrass (the most common problem) can be identified by its swollen, zig-zag nodes. It's easily recognized by its coarse texture, bright green colour, and pointed blades that grow from a shared stem.
It is most often found in sandy/sunny locations where the turf is in a weakened state. That's why you frequently see it in cracks along sidewalks and driveways.
This is my first year using a lawn service company for my weeds. I was skeptical at first but whatever they did to my lawn worked. The advice they gave me about what I could do to help keep the lawn looking great from watering to length of cut really helped. I had several people comment on how great it looked. I called in a few times with questions about my lawn care. By far the best customer service people I've dealt with in a long time. Great people. Highly recommend.

This team is great. What appears to be a quick come and gone application, is from experience and a good eye. The moss control and fertilizer application has greatly improved the rich green colour. The aeration and overseeding has filled in those mole hills from last year's damage. Tegjot has requested a second weed control spray to get that pesky buttercup under control. Nearly 20 year of neglect is a work in progress, but already looks so much better.. Thank you.

They provide timely updates on upcoming and completed services. A great company for lawn care.
