Weed response FAQs

Weeds spread quickly, so the first sign is simply seeing more of them appear across your lawn. They compete with your grass for water and nutrients, so you may also notice your lawn looking thin and worse for wear.

With an ongoing lawn care package, our experts can spot early signs of weed growth and deal with it quickly, helping keep your lawn healthy and ready to spend time on.

The professional products we use have been specially designed to be safe for adults, children and pets. Typically, you should wait 1 hour after treatment before using your lawn again and you should keep grazing animals such as rabbits away from the grass for up to 10 days.

Your local Greensleeves expert will explain everything you need to know on the day of treatment and advise on any aftercare specific to your lawn.

Not completely, weeds grow quickly and spread easily. But with professional treatment and ongoing lawn care, you can keep weeds under control for longer and stop further invasions of your lawn.

While our experts handle the specialist care, there are a couple of things you can do to keep your lawn looking it’s best. Regular mowing and watering (especially during dry spells) will help your grass stay healthy between visits. As part of your ongoing lawn care plan, our experts will also give you tailored advice so you always know exactly what your lawn needs.
