When it comes to controlling weeds in your garden beds, which solution is best for you?

 

So your beds are cleaned, edged and mulched and you’ve shown your neighbors the WOW factor of your spring landscape!

  • Do you see weeds re-emerging in your beds?
  • Are you tired of spraying or pulling weeds?
  • Is it time to cross some things off the honey-do list?
  • Would you like more free time to spend with you family and friends?

If you answered yes to any of these questions – you may be a weed puller!!!  But don’t worry, Dowco has several solutions to help you manage weeds.

Option 1: Dowco’s Bed Maintenance Program

Dowco bed maintenance and weed control

For great weed control in your beds, Dowco’s bed maintenance program is for you.  Our regularly scheduled treatments minimize weeds in all areas of your property except turf. Trained licensed applicators/technicians will visit your property monthly to control the germination of weeds using pre and post emergents. As an extra bonus, our program includes treatment of weeds in parking lots, patios, decks, around trees, along curbs, and in sidewalk cracks!

Option 2: Mid-Summer Bed Cultivation

Dowco bed cultivation

A bed cultivation or mid-summer mulch turning brings the darker mulch from the bottom and rotates it to the top to refresh your beds during the summer between spring and fall bed cleanups. Over time, the UV rays from the sun will bleach the color out of your mulch.  A bed cultivation extends the life of your mulch that was applied months before without the cost of fresh mulch. The benefits don’t stop just with the aesthetic values.  A bed cultivation will reduce water run off and allow nutrients to get to the root zone of your plants. The aerating aspect is beneficial in letting the roots have more space to spread out and grow along with keeping the soil at the correct temperature.

Option 3: Dowco’s Weekly Weeding Program
