Pre-Emergent Herbicide Weed Control

The best way to control weeds is to stop them before they ever break the surface. That’s exactly what pre-emergent weed control is designed to do. These treatments create a protective barrier in the soil that prevents weed seeds from germinating. Instead of chasing weeds after they appear, you’re keeping them out from the start. Weed Pro’s seasonal pre-emergent applications are carefully timed to match Georgia’s climate and weed growth patterns, helping you stay ahead of crabgrass, spurge, goosegrass, and other invasive plants before they take over.

How WeedPro Handles Pre-Emergent Weed Control

At Weed Pro, we build every pre-emergent strategy around the timing and conditions of your specific lawn. We don’t just spray and hope for the best. Our licensed technicians study soil temperatures and seasonal trends to apply pre-emergents at the right time of year—before weed seeds have a chance to germinate.
We use high-quality pre-emergent herbicides that form a thin, invisible layer in the soil. When weed seeds try to sprout, that layer interrupts the process and prevents them from growing. This is especially important in early spring and early fall, when annual weeds tend to emerge in full force. Our team also considers your grass type and landscape conditions to ensure that treatments protect your lawn without harming healthy turf.
