All you want to do some evenings is enjoy a little relaxation time in your backyard. Maybe you’re grilling some dinner or hanging with friends or family or even lounging alone. You just want some peace and quiet and to destress from the day.
How’s your lawn looking these days? Do you wish you had thicker and greener grass?
You’re not alone. Everyone covets those luxurious lawns that beg to be walked on with bare feet while sipping an iced cold drink.
Maybe you look over at your neighbor’s yard thinking the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence or property line. Well, worry no more. These pro lawn care strategies can amplify your lawn’s health and make the grass greener on both sides of the fence … maybe yours will even be a little greener.
In the heat of the summer months, you think you’d be past the worst of lawn weeds.
But those little rascals happen to love the heat and humidity. So as temperatures rise, weeds continue their rampage.
What’s more, summer lawn weeds can even be drought tolerant, meaning a lack of rain won’t bother them at all.
Great. Just what you need: more weeds ruining your picture perfect yard, making it look neglected and unkempt.
Well, enough’s enough. Let’s look at the 7 worst summer lawn weeds in Central and Southern Maryland and how to get rid of them so you can return to summer fun.
There’s nothing like getting out in the backyard after a long, hard day.
But mosquitoes can spoil all the fun. And they enjoy every minute of buzzing past your ears and leaving you with itchy welts. They don’t even care that they also can be carriers of West Nile and Zika, along with other viruses and diseases.
Of all the things that can be problematic to Central and Southern Maryland lawns, weeds have got to be the worst.
A weed shows up in your lawn almost without warning as enemy No. 1. It can be tall and spiny and strange-looking, so it naturally stands out in the wrong way. And, what’s worse, many weeds travel in clumps with their friends so they seem to almost double and triple overnight. In fact, thousands of weed seeds can survive in the soil for years before they germinate and grow.
Your lawn is something everyone sees when they pass your Maryland home. So, unfortunately, you can’t hide it when it’s not looking well.
And when you decide to bring in professionals to help you maintain your lawn and boost your curb appeal, you can’t help but compare prices. You want to know what you’re getting for your money and that you're receiving something of value.
There are quite a few things that make mosquitoes the most annoying pests in the world.
As a result, getting rid of mosquitoes in your Central and Southern Maryland yard today is more important than ever.
Warm weather comes with many classic images: a tall glass of iced tea, flip-flops, abundant sunshine.
But it also comes with another staple: ants. You will see them marching back and forth on your hot driveway or nearby sidewalk. But, let’s be honest. Your warm-weather wish list usually doesn’t include discovering a colony of ants in your house … even if it might keep the children entertained for a little while.
When it comes to your image of the perfect lawn, there is probably one thing that will spoil your vision more than anything else: weeds.
They’re tall and prickly and spiky and look completely out of place in your well-manicured front yard. What’s more, is they make your lawn look neglected and take away from the overall beauty and enjoyment of your yard!
