Commercial Weed Control
Our commercial weed control programs target 99% of annual and perennial weeds through customized herbicide applications. Services include pre-emergent treatments for long-term prevention and post-emergent solutions for existing vegetation. Clients receive site-specific plans addressing sensitive areas and non-target species protection.
Solar Panel Weed Control
This annual herbicide program eliminates weeds beneath solar panels using winter applications of pre- and post-emergent products. The treatment ensures bare ground maintenance throughout summer while minimizing environmental impact through targeted, EPA-registered solutions.
Year Round Control
Our premium service combines initial pre/post-emergent applications with seasonal follow-ups to maintain 99% weed population control. Ideal for properties requiring near-complete vegetation suppression, this program ensures continuous protection through California's climate cycles.
Residual Application
This cost-effective solution provides 90-95% annual weed control through one-time winter herbicide applications. While effective for short-term needs, it requires reapplication for sustained results and doesn't address perennial species like Johnson grass.
Contact Application
Designed for existing perennial weeds, this service uses targeted post-emergent herbicides applied during active growth periods. Multiple treatments may be needed for complete eradication, making it ideal for summer control of species like Bermuda grass.
