WEKILLWEEDS.COMThis time of year is perfect for enjoying 
freshly blossoming flowers and lush, 
green grass, but it comes with a price. 
Every year, the warm spring air brings a 
flurry of people working hard to 
control newly erupting weeds.
WEKILLWEEDS.COMThese days might be full of sunshine, 
but life can start looking bleak when 
you run into problems with weed 
control. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMPlanning ahead for these common 
springtime weed control challenges 
will help you stay on top of problems 
before they become overwhelming.
WEKILLWEEDS.COMSpring Rains Tend 
to Bring More Sprouts
WEKILLWEEDS.COMIf you were wise enough to plan for 
pre-emergent spraying, then you won’t 
have much to worry about here. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMIf you didn’t, then you might see new 
weeds sprout after each rainfall, 
even after you treated existing weeds 
a few weeks before.
These are likely old weed seeds from 
last season sprouting. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMPost-emergent sprays often have 
to be used on a monthly basis 
to eliminate weeds as they continue 
to pop up in response to increased rain.
WEKILLWEEDS.COMWhile this is frustrating, you can rest 
assured that more frequent spraying 
is fixing the problem. 
Those sprouts we kill won’t be able 
to drop seeds that come back to haunt 
you next year.
WEKILLWEEDS.COMWindy Days Increase 
the Risk of DIY Spraying
WEKILLWEEDS.COMAt some point, you might be tempted 
to arm yourself with a hose 
and over-the-counter weed spray 
to combat the problem. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMUnfortunately, all it takes is a gust 
of wind to send weed spray flying right 
into your face. 
DIY weed treatments come with risks, 
such as skin and lung irritation, 
and failing to take the right precautions 
can be dangerous for your health. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMIf you absolutely can’t resist tackling 
this yourself, then make sure to do it 
on a calm day and follow the proper 
precautions. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMWhen you have us spray weeds 
for you, we’ve got the equipment 
to ensure that the weed spray only 
goes where it should go. 
Avoiding overspray is also critical 
for preventing desirable plants 
from being killed.
WEKILLWEEDS.COMLawn Treatments 
Can Feed Newly 
Growing Weeds
WEKILLWEEDS.COMThe best laid plans can quickly go awry 
with lawn care. 
Tilling and power raking can pull up old 
weed seeds to the surface, where they 
are now in perfect contact with water 
and sunlight for optimal growth. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMWater and fertilizing treatments 
stimulate weed growth just as well as 
they do for the grass. 
WEKILLWEEDS.COMSpring should be a fun time 
of the year where you can get out 
and enjoy the beautiful weather.

fun, you’ve got options for getting help.
