March is just around the corner, which means it's about to be prime growing season for grass; and something else. A lot of harmful weeds like dollarweed and sedge are beginning to spread right now, and the best way to keep those pesky weeds away is by using a Pre-Emergent weed control. A lot of companies prefer to treat them after they've invaded your Gainesville lawn, but a good dose of prevention is better for your lawn and the environment.

A Pre Emergent controls unwanted weeds and grasses by targeting the weed seed just before or immediately after the seed begins to germinate. A good dose of Pre Emergent product applied at the right time keeps weeds from germinating for up to 6 months. The time for that application is now through, and the window is limited to get your prevention applied before the seeds have already hit the ground running for spring.
