Description

Haines Weed Control Covers Both Residential and Commercial. In order to control weeds in the most environmentally sound manner, Haines uses Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices. This means we take a holistic approach to weed control which includes selective weed treatments, use of safest products, and properly timed applications for the results you want. IPM is using all available techniques to control weeds. Weeds are any plant material growing where it is unwanted. Frequently, this includes grass in flower beds, sidewalks or driveways. For those who do not want any fertilizing, or who want to fertilize themselves, but do not want to deal with broad leaf weed control, we can do lawn weed control as a stand alone service. Usually recommended twice per year, sometimes three if a large initial infestation exists. -Pre-emergent for poa or "crabgrass": This does not control existing stands, but strictly prevents the re seeding of new stands of poa or goose grass, commonly called crabgrass. We do two applications, one in early spring, and one in late fall as they germinate during cooler weather. -Bark Beds: Post- and pre-emergent control for broad leaf weeds and grasses in beds with hardy or woody plant material and is recommended twice per year. Tender annuals and some perennials are sensitive to this control. -Total Vegetation Control (TVC): Post- and pre-emergent control for broad leaf weeds and grasses. This is frequently used for gravel driveways, walkways and parking lots and recommended twice per year. -Pre-Landscape: Post-emergent control for weeds and grasses prior to preparations for new lawn and or beds. It does not impact seed reserves in the soil. We use products which allow you to plant 7-10 days after the treatment. -Blackberry Control: Post-emergent control for blackberries. This usually requires at least one follow-up treatment. Cutting can be performed before or after initial application. Depending on initial application time, amount of re growth can determine whether to retreat the same year or the following year. The optimum time to retreat is when growth is at 6-12 inches. -Brush Control: Post-emergent control which can be treated as it stands or after cutting to treat new growth. We can do mechanical brush cutting if requested. -Under Asphalt: pre-emergent for control of horsetail and other weeds which can grow through the blacktop crumbling edges and creating holes. -Noxious Weeds: as a minimum, these are best treated 2 consecutive years of 3 applications per year. We attempt to keep these weeds from re seeding so that the population can be eradicated. Many noxious weeds can produce thousands of seeds per plant with a lengthy dormant seed reserve in the soil. -Aquatic Weed Control: available in certain areas.
