Question: How safe are your applications to my pets and kids?
Answer: GreenCare recommends that you stay off of the treated area for 24 hours. While no pesticide may legally be classified as "completely safe", our products have a caution label and are very safe when used in consistency with the label.
Question: Should I water after my lawn application?
Answer: It depends on the time of the season. The early spring application of fertilizer with crabgrass control needs water to activate the product. Watering or a spring rain will actually help this treatment. A light watering or a brief shower will not seriously impact the weed control treatment(s), but it is best to leave the product on the weed until it is absorbed (usually about 24 hours). GreenCare keeps a close eye on the weather and will try and avoid doing applications if rain is in the forecast.
Question: How long should I wait before mowing?
Answer: If a dry application was applied you can mow the same day. If, however, weed control was applied, do not mow for at least 24 hours. Refer to your treatment invoice for application details. If there is ever a question, do not hesitate to call our office for a prompt and courteous response.
Question: Why aren't my weeds dying?
Answer: Our three - way liquid weed control is the most effective broadleaf weed control available. The weeds should begin to curl up after 3 to 4 days of the application, but it will take up to 14 days for the weeds to be gone completely.
