Lime/Gypsum Applications Most of our customers have been switched from traditional lime applications to gypsum applications.  Why? •  The main benefit we were after in applying lime was calcium.  Gypsum is high in calcium plus sulfur. •  Lime applications will raise the ph in your soil.  Gypsum will not.  Most soil tests we have done in the West Michigan area show ph levels being high enough. •  Sulfur is a nutrient that is on the low side in the majority of soil tests we have done. •  We are getting a color response from gypsum where that would not happen with lime.  At least not immediately. •  Gypsum is a great soil conditioner for heavy soils. So where does lime fit in? Lime is still a product we will use.  Where a soil test has been done or on a site where we know the ph is going to be too low we will use lime.  Indications that the soil is acidic (low pH) would be… •  Sandy Soil •  Moss growing in full sun areas •  The weed “red sorrel” is an indicator of low pH •  Subdivisions that were previously blueberry fields or are near them may have a low pH level. Cost:  The cost per application is based on the square footage of your lawn.  To request an estimate, please call our office or Request an Estimate on this website.  Your technician will be out within 2 days to measure your lawn and give you a free lawn analysis. Core Aeration Here’s how it works As the aeration machine goes across your lawn, soil cores are pulled from the ground and laid on top of your lawn.  By poking thousands of these holes in your lawn the following benefits occur… •  Improved air exchange •  Enhanced soil water uptake •  Improved fertilizer uptake •  Reduced water run-off •  Reduced soil compaction •  Enhanced heat tolerance •  Enhanced thatch breakdown •  Promoted root growth In simple terms, a lot of things happen that are beneficial to your lawn. Although core aeration is beneficial on all lawns, the following types of lawns should really have this done on an annual basis as part of your lawn care program… •  Lawns with poor soil (clay, backfill, etc.) •  Lawns with thin grass •  High traffic lawns (kids, pets, etc.) •  Old lawns that need to be reinvigorated •  Lawns with a high level of thatch •  If you are going to overseed your lawn •  Semi Shaded Lawns Once your lawn has been aerated, here are some helpful hints…Leave the cores. It is not recommended to rake these up. Just continue to water and mow normally and the cores will break down and disappear within a week or so. Cost:  The cost for core aeration is the cost of a lawn care application plus $30.  To request an estimate, please call our office or Request an Estimate.  Your technician will be out within 2 days to measure your lawn and give you a free lawn analysis.                       Mole Control Mole Control is a very popular and effective program here at AAA Lawn Care, Inc.  I think you will agree that moles are a pain in the neck.  They can destroy a perfectly good lawn in a very short amount time.  Of course, they are also a pain in the neck to get rid of.  Moles are like many wild animals. They move about in search of food. As moles search for food, they also are making a mess of your lawn. A mole will eat a variety of insect larva in the soil. Grubs are one of those larva. However, many experts believe as much of 90% of a mole’s diet is earthworms. For this reason, applying an insecticide to eliminate the insect larva (grubs), does not guarantee the moles will leave your lawn. They may be very content just eating earthworms. Therefore, we apply an insecticide only when there is direct grub damage to your lawn. The insecticide application may or may not encourage the mole to leave. So what are my options? Use a mole trap. This is something you can do yourself. When properly used, they can be very effective. Or Give us a try!  We have the only mole bait proven to kill moles. Although this product is effective, it doesn’t work overnight. It can take up to 30 days for the initial treatment to kill the moles. Our service includes 2 visits from us, approximately 2 weeks apart. If there is continued mole activity, we will return at no charge to reapply as needed through December 31st of the year the service is scheduled. Cost:  The cost for our mole control program is based on the size of your lawn.  To request an estimate, please call our office or Request an Estimate on this website.  Your technician will be out within 2 days to measure your lawn and give you a free lawn analysis.         Grub Control White Grubs are turf-damaging larva that feed on the root system of grass plants in your lawn.  These grubs are the larval stage of the May Beetle, June Beetle, Masked Chafer, European Chafter, Japanese Beetle and various other shelled beetles.  Grubs really only damage lawns in the Spring and Fall.  This damage can occur very rapidly if you are not watching.  We use a specific product when grub damage has been confirmed.  This will stop any more lawn from being destroyed.  This is important because grub damaged areas typically will need to be reseeded.  It is advised to use a grub preventative as a follow up application in the summer if you have active grub damage in a given season. Preventative grub control products applied in mid-summer are very successful in controlling grubs.  Grubs mature into beetles in early summer, then they mate and lay new eggs back into the soil for a new generation to begin. This is a 12-month cycle that can re-infest your lawn with grubs each year. For this reason you may want to consider a preventative insecticide every year for your lawn.  It is a very good idea if you suspect your neighbors of having a grub infestation or if you have had grub damage in the past. Cost:  The cost for a grub control application is double your regular lawn care application price. (For example: if your lawn care application price is $42, then your Insecticide price would be $84) Please note:  There is a common belief that a mole problem is related to grubs in the lawn. This is only partially true. Moles do feed on grubs, but the majority of a mole’s diet is earthworms. In most cases, an insecticide will not eliminate the moles.   Surface Feeding Insect Control There are cases in any lawn where an insect infestation starts and damage occurs to your lawn.  These surface feeding insects such as chinch bugs, sod webworms, and billbugs can be common in some areas.  These infestations can be controlled by applying an insecticide product specifically formulated for these pests.  Our technicians have been trained on identifying infestations before they become problems.  However, we can always use your help.  If you see brown spots or areas in your lawn that seem questionable, please contact us for an evaluation.     Cost:  The cost for a Surface Feeding Insect Control is the same as your regular lawn care application price. Organic Fertilization Programs We have organic fertilizer programs available for our customers.  We use a product called Nature Safe.  The word "organic" means all of the ingredients in Nature Safe are derived from natural sources. Nature Safe contains no manure or sewage sludges. The natural ingredients found in Nature Safe are animal proteins such as feather, bone, meat, fish, poultry and blood meals. These meals contain essential natural amino acids, chelated secondary elements, vitamins and enzymes. The all natural ingredients in Nature Safe supply the food energy that increases the number of microbes found in the soil as well as provide the basic nutrients needed for healthy plant growth. Nature Safe products do not contain chemicals used to kill weeds. Instead, weeds are naturally controlled as the turf thickens. This program is built on the concept of promoting healthy plant growth and limiting the use of weed control products. If weeds are a concern, we will use a "spot" treatment program, in which the weed killer is applied directly to the affected area only. Cost:  Our organic fertilization program is 2x the cost of our regular lawn care application cost.  To request an estimate, please call our office or Request an Estimate on this website.  Your technician will be out within 2 days to measure your lawn and give you a free lawn analysis. Crabgrass Pre Emergent The Spring application includes crabgrass pre emergent.  Crabgrass pre emergent is not a perfect product.  Weather does play a part in the effectiveness of the pre emergent.  However, our customers should never fear.  Even if a bit of crabgrass does appear, we have post emergent products that we will spray to control the crabgrass.
