Pre-Emergent Weed Control

What do we do?

We apply a specialized chemical barrier to your soil that inhibits weed seeds from germinating. This proactive treatment stops common annual weeds like crabgrass and foxtail before they can emerge and compete with your grass.

How often do we come?

Professional treatments are typically performed every 4 to 8 weeks during the growing season to maintain optimal results.

Why is our solution better?

Our specialized pre-emergent barrier is designed to stop tough annual weeds like crabgrass before they ever break the surface. Unlike many DIY treatments, our professional-grade formula is safer for your family and pets once dry and provides consistent, season-long protection tailored to local soil conditions.

How much does it cost?

Post-Emergent Weed Control

What do we do?

We apply targeted post-emergent treatments to identify and eliminate existing weeds in your lawn, ensuring your grass has the space and nutrients it needs to flourish.

How often do we come?

Post-emergent treatments are typically performed every 4 to 8 weeks during the growing season to maintain optimal results.

Why is our solution better?

Our post-emergent formula breaks down existing weeds at the root using blends suited to Georgia soil, so treated weeds do not just brown and regrow from surviving roots.

How much does it cost?

That depends on the size of your property and the appropriate numbers of rersouces needed to complete the service. Get a quote online or give us a call at 470-291-5029 to find out pricing for your home or business.

Turf Thickening for Weed Prevention

What do we do?

We pair aeration and overseeding with your weed control plan so new grass fills in bare spots before weeds can take root there.

How often do we come?

Pre-emergent applications are timed to Atlanta's germination windows, typically in late winter or early spring and again in fall.

Why is our solution better?

A thicker lawn leaves weeds less open soil to germinate in, so this step reduces how much weed pressure your yard sees the following season.

That depends on the size of your property and the resources needed to complete the service. Get a quote online or call 470-291-5029 for pricing on your home or business.

General
Questions

How is Backyard Care different from national lawn care chains?
A local team handles your lawn, so treatments are matched to Georgia soil and common regional weed pressure.
What if weeds return between my scheduled visits?
We operate without contracts. If you notice a weed breakthrough within 10 to 14 days, contact us and we will return to re-treat those areas at no added cost.
How soon will I see results?
Pre-emergent applications prevent new weeds before they sprout, so there is no visible change right away. Post-emergent treatments typically brown existing weeds within 3 to 7 days.
Will weed control harm bees, butterflies, or other pollinators?
No. Our low-toxicity, targeted weed treatments are designed to be pollinator-friendly and applied to avoid blooming plants where bees and butterflies feed.
Is weed control safer for kids and pets?
Yes, once dry, our pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments are kid-friendly and pet-friendly. We use low-toxicity formulas designed to limit risk to your family and yard.
Do I need to be home during treatment?
No. Our technicians only need yard access, and we leave a notice once the visit is complete.
