Common Questions
As a Taylor homeowner, can you help with the weeds that keep coming back in my mulch beds?
Yes, we handle this common local issue directly. Our licensed applicators use targeted, professional-grade treatments for bareground weed control in landscape areas like mulch beds, curbs, and fence lines. We focus on eliminating existing weeds and providing longer-lasting results to reduce how often you need to re-mulch or hand-pull, saving you time and effort in your yard maintenance.
Do you offer shrub and tree care, or just removal?
We provide comprehensive care. For shrubs, this includes planting, pruning, disease and insect management, and transplanting. For trees, we offer care services and removal when necessary. Our Category 3B ornamental certification means we are trained to diagnose and treat health issues to preserve your plants, not just remove them. Removal is always a last resort after other options are considered.
What makes Weed Eraser different from a regular landscaping company?
Our specialization sets us apart. Founded in 1997, we are licensed herbicide applicators and vegetation control specialists. We hold specific state certifications for right-of-way, ornamental, and aquatic applications, which many general landscapers do not. This allows us to tackle complex problems like invasive species (Phragmites, Poison Ivy), provide industrial-grade bareground control, and offer expert disease management for your property's specific needs.
