It's not a question of if you need pre-emergent weed control; for homeowners like you who truly love their lawn, it’s a matter of when is the best time to take action to prevent unsightly weeds from taking over your turfgrass. After all, it’s hard to be proud of a lawn that is full of difficult-to-control weeds, such as dallisgrass, torpedo-grass, quack-grass, ground ivy, or dollar-weed.

Ideally, you would stop difficult weeds before they even appear, but pre-emergent weed control is merely one part of lawn weed control. Our PhD-certified specialists know that it takes a mix of practices in order to help guarantee elimination of difficult-to-control weeds.
dealing with difficult-to-control weeds

Weeds that we consider difficult-to-control tend to need ongoing visits or tailored strategies for successful eradication. These sorts of weeds can be either annual or perennial, and cause problems for different reasons.

Difficult-to-control perennial weeds: These weeds survive and reproduce even in adverse conditions. They may rely on bulbs, rhizomes, stolons, tubers, or thickened storage roots for survival between seasons and are hard to eradicate.
Difficult-to-control annual weeds: Annual weeds can’t survive underground from year to year, but some emerge at times of the year when pre-emergent weed killers aren’t active. Furthermore, they might also be resistant to post-emergent treatments.

***When to apply pre-emergent weed control***

Pre-emergent weed control uses products that are designed to work before a plant germinates in early spring. For difficult annual weeds, multiple applications may be required—first, before spring and then at carefully timed intervals as secondary flushes of germination come on as the seasons progress.

Pre-emergents can be used effectively as precursors to other weed control strategies that take over once germination is complete. A tailored solution can be used to target existing weeds through area or zone treatment with low volume spray equipment. This can control difficult weeds successfully when applied in the right mixture at the right intervals, usually before the weed in question has produced flowers or seed heads.
