Pre-Emergent: Stop Weeds Before They Sprout!

 

 

Is It Too Late to Apply a Pre-Emergent to My Lawn and Flower Beds?

 

No, this is the perfect time to broadcast pre-emergent granules on your lawn and flower beds to help prevent warm-season weeds from germinating and growing this summer.

Remember to apply pre-emergent again in the fall to help prevent cool-season weeds. Your lawn will be much healthier when it isn’t competing with unwanted weeds for nutrients and water.

 

Neil Sperry suggests using a pre-emergent with Dimension as the active ingredient. There are several products that include Dimension, and we’ve found one that works in both lawns and flower beds and has a higher concentration than many products on the market—thus saving you money.

Bring us your lawn and bed dimensions (pardon the pun!), and we’ll calculate how much you need.

 
 

How Does Pre-Emergent Work?

 

A pre-emergent lawn care product helps control weeds at the earliest stage of growth—before you even see them. Several key factors are important to consider if you want to use this type of weed control effectively.

Here in East Texas, because our weather can be all over the place, it is recommended to apply pre-emergent every three to four months.
