What types of weeds do you treat?
East Valley Weed Control treats all types of weeds, including annual, perennial, and biennial varieties. According to WeedScience, more than 500 cases of herbicide resistance in weeds have been documented worldwide. That’s why choosing a professional weed control service in Mesa, AZ that uses effective, targeted treatments is essential to keeping your property weed-free.
Is your product harmful?
Both our traditional and organic treatments are safe for pets and people. The traditional treatment requires a short waiting period of a few hours before pets and children can go outside. Our organic treatments allow pets and kids to go outside immediately, though they may be slightly less effective. For a reliable and safe weed removal service in Mesa, AZ, we tailor treatments to meet your needs.
Do you use dye for weed control?
We typically don't use dye in our products, but dye can be applied upon request. Our weed control service in Mesa, AZ is flexible to accommodate your preferences.
Do you remove weeds or just treat them?
We do not currently offer weed removal services. Instead, we apply treatments that reduce weed growth and kill existing weeds. To be effective, the leaves of the weeds need to stay intact. If your weeds are over a foot tall, multiple treatments will likely be needed for full control.
How soon will the weeds die after treatment?
You’ll typically start to see results within a couple of weeks. Warmer weather speeds up the process. That said, we intentionally use a slower-acting formula to ensure the entire weed, along with the root, is eliminated.
Do you offer organic or natural weed control options?
We do offer organic weed control options. However, they aren’t as effective as our standard products, and for that reason, we don’t offer a 6-month warranty on organic treatments.
How long should I wait before mowing my lawn?
Wait three days before mowing your lawn. This allows the treatment to fully absorb into the targeted weeds.
How soon can I water after treatment?
Avoid watering for 24 hours after treatment. Be sure to water your lawn with ¼ to ½ inch of water within one week of the application.
Will this kill the grass too?
The treatment may temporarily yellow Bermuda grass, but it would take many applications to actually kill it. The yellowing usually fades within a couple of weeks.
Do you guarantee weeds won’t return?
We offer a 6-month warranty on our treatments. While we can’t guarantee that no weeds will appear, we will gladly return for a respray if you experience regrowth during that period.
How often do I need treatments?
Treatments are recommended every six months to maintain a healthy, weed-free yard.
What’s the difference between your service and store-bought weed killers?
Our products are professional-grade and not available for general retail use. We also include adjuvants and additives that boost performance and longevity, making our treatments more effective than store-bought alternatives.
Can you treat my yard, if it just rained?
Yes, we can treat your yard after rain as long as there’s no standing water present.
How long does the treatment last?
Our treatments last for about six months under normal conditions.
Do I need to do anything before or after you come?
Before our visit, please pick up any pet waste and remove children’s or pet toys. Also, if your lawn is covered in leaves, please clear them to ensure the treatment can reach the soil effectively.
Will I need multiple treatments for resistant weeds?
Some resistant weeds may require multiple treatments depending on how severe or persistent the infestation is.
Do I need to sign a contract?
No contracts are required—just great service.
What happens if it rains right after the treatment?
Imagine nature doing half the work for you; if you're fortunate to receive rain after the treatment, you won't need to water the product anymore.
Will weeds die immediately?
Weeds won’t die immediately. While fast results sound nice, our slow-acting formula ensures the entire plant, including the roots, dies off. This usually takes between 5 and 14 days, depending on the weather.
