Common Questions
What's the most effective way to deal with the stubborn weeds in my Scranton yard?
For Scranton's common weeds like crabgrass and dandelions, we recommend a two-step approach: a pre-emergent treatment in early spring to prevent seeds from germinating, followed by targeted post-emergent spot treatments as needed. Consistent, season-long maintenance is key to keeping them under control.
How can I tell if my soil is compacted, and what does Smokey's do to fix it?
Signs of soil compaction in our area include water pooling on the lawn, thinning grass, and difficulty pushing a tool into the ground. Smokey's uses core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil to relieve compaction, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots effectively.
As a Scranton homeowner, when is the best time of year to start a landscaping maintenance plan?
The ideal time is early spring. Starting a plan in March or April allows us to apply pre-emergent weed control and assess any winter damage or compaction issues. This proactive, season-long approach sets your landscape up for success through our humid summers and into fall.
