- Be proactive: Crabgrass begins to germinate in May, which means that you should start applying pre-emergent treatments in March. Catching it early will kill off the crabgrass before it can begin to sprout.
- Keep your grass at the proper height: Keeping your grass at least two to three inches tall will help shade weed seeds so they don’t have the chance to grow.
- Aerate your lawn: Crabgrass thrives in compact soil. Annually aerating your lawn will help reduce the threat of unwanted crabgrass invading your lawn.
- Create a plan with a lawn fertilizer company: A lawn care company will help you take the right actions to prevent crabgrass from sprouting in your yard. The best way to get rid of crabgrass is to treat it before it appears. Get expert advice on the right treatments for your yard.

Steps to Start Lawn Fertilization
- Assess your lawn’s needs: A great starting point is assessing the needs of your yard. Look for signs of nutrient deficiency like yellowing, bald spots, or leaf curling.
- Establish a watering routine: Maintaining a regular watering routine is crucial for activating fertilizer and promoting growth. Be sure your lawn receives at least one inch or water per a week.
- Test your soil: Before selecting a fertilizer, test your soil. This will show you the specific nutrient needs of your soil which will help you choose the right soil for optimal growth.
- Create a plan with a lawn fertilizer company: A lawn care company will steer you toward the best fertilizers for your lawn’s specific needs, and will educate you on the most effective application methods to keep your lawn looking great!

The Pros of Professional Fertilization
If you use DIY fertilizer, you may be missing out on the benefits of proper fertilization. Here are two big reasons why you should consider hiring a professional fertilization company:
The pros properly apply the correct fertilizer. Not all lawns have the same fertilization needs. Applying the incorrect type or amount of fertilizer can be harmful to your lawn. Professionals know what kind of fertilizer your lawn needs, and how to correctly apply it. Don’t risk damaging your lawn - hiring professionals means you know the correct type of fertilizer was used, and that it was timely and correctly applied.
The pros save you time and stress. Effective fertilization requires sticking to a schedule. Even a small lawn can take hours of care per month to maintain. When you hire the pros, you don’t have to worry about missing a fertilizer application or rushing to apply too much in a short span of time.

Professional Lawn Care vs. DIY
Let’s look at the ways professional lawn care can help alleviate the stress of DIY care.
Challenges of DIY Lawn Care:
● Could apply the wrong type of fertilizer, resulting in uneven, patchy grass.
● Could apply too much fertilizer, which can kill the grass.
● Treatment may not be suited for the current state of the grass.
● Difficult to fertilize without proper equipment.
● Takes hours of manual labor.
Benefits of Professional Lawn Care:
● Fertilizer is customized to your lawn, including the specific nutrients that will target weeds like crabgrass and broadleaf, as well as insects like grubs.
● Professional equipment that ensures consistent treatment.
● Testing of soil available upon request to determine the exact state of your lawn and what it needs.
● Gives back massive amounts of time.

Lawn Fertilization Tips for Winter
Are you worried your grass is taking a beating during winter?
Like many of us in the Midwest, you’ve switched out the lawn mower for a snow shovel.
While your lawn may not require as much care in the winter as it does during the other seasons of the year, did you know there are some steps you can take to make sure your lawn is in good shape come springtime?
1) Aerate & fertilize – In the fall, have your lawn aerated. Aerating your lawn will give it a chance to breathe before the grass goes dormant. After you’ve aerated, fertilize to give your lawn the nutrients it needs to prepare for winter.
2) Keep the lawn clean – If leaves have piled up during fall, there’s a chance the lawn could suffocate before winter. Leaves that are left behind could also invite disease if they’re too wet.
