Stop crabgrass before it starts with professional pre-emergent control—timed perfectly for Ellicott City & Columbia lawns.
Call for FREE EstimateCrabgrass is an aggressive annual weed that can produce 150,000 seeds per plant. Once it appears in summer, it’s too late to prevent—it must be stopped before it germinates.
Our pre-emergent crabgrass control creates a chemical barrier in the soil that stops seeds from sprouting, giving you a clean, uniform lawn all season.
Our crabgrass prevention service is science-backed and locally tuned:
We track real-time soil temps to apply at the perfect moment—never too early or too late.
Commercial herbicides with 10–12 weeks of residual control—far stronger than store brands.
Applied with early-season nutrients in one visit for cost and lawn health efficiency.
Calibrated spreaders ensure even application—no gaps along driveways or sidewalks.
The ideal window is **early to mid-March** in Howard County—before soil at 2-inch depth reaches 55°F for 5+ days.
We begin monitoring in late February and contact you to lock in your optimal date based on actual soil conditions and forecasts.
Applying in April or later? That’s post-emergent territory—and far less effective.
Pre-emergent: $50–$100. Post-emergent summer treatments: $150–$400+.
90–95% control vs. 60–80% with reactive methods.
No repeated treatments or monitoring—just a healthy lawn all season.
Stop seed production before it starts—breaking the cycle for good.
