At HomeTurf Lawn Fertilization Services, we make it easy to achieve a healthy, vibrant lawn all year round with our comprehensive lawn care program. Starting at $285 per season, our fertilization and insect control services are tailored to the size of your lawn and broken down into six effective steps to provide targeted care and long-lasting results.
We start by helping your lawn recover from the stress of winter. Our March-April treatment includes a crabgrass and weed control application to give your lawn the best possible start to the season.
In May, we target existing weeds and apply a nutrient boost to improve lawn color and density, ensuring that your lawn grows strong and vibrant as the temperatures rise.
During the hot summer months, we apply a balanced mix of nutrients to keep your lawn healthy in the heat. We also treat broadleaf weeds, giving your lawn the care it needs to stay lush and green throughout the season.
We protect your lawn from insect damage with a preventive grub treatment in June/July, keeping harmful insects from damaging your grass and roots.
As the season transitions, we treat broadleaf weeds and apply balanced nutrients to ensure your lawn stays healthy going into the cooler months. This step is essential for maintaining a strong lawn as fall approaches.
In October, we prepare your lawn for winter with a final application of balanced nutrients that will help it recover and thrive when spring arrives. This treatment supports your lawn’s long-term health and ensures a strong comeback next season.
While some of our products contain organic material such as microbes and beneficial bacteria, we use a formulated synthetic fertilizer to provide the perfect blend of nutrients that your lawn and plants need. Typically, organic fertilizers contain animal waste and are not recommended for turfgrass.
Yes, the products we use are safe for pets and kids. There may be a short period of time that kids and pets must stay off of the newly treated lawn. Typically after the lawn has dried, and absorbed the products (usually within 24 hours).
Usually within 24 hours depending on the application. The product must be dried and absorbed by the lawn to be effective. The granulated grub prevention application (steps (3-4) should be watered in ASAP.
In Michigan, we have a temperate climate and grasses will typically need about one inch of rainfall per week to stay active and green. In cooler temperatures it may require less, and in the intense summer heat it may require more.
No. The insecticide we use to prevent grubs and other pests does not adversely affect bees or earthworms. If a situation were to happen where we need to use a Neonicotinoid class (harmful to bees) of insecticide, we would not apply on flowering plants and have the homeowner water in the insecticide after application. This practice reduces or eliminates the contact with helpful pollinators such as honeybees.
Yes, grub prevention is included in the program. If there is a problem with grubs later in the year, we will come out and treat at no cost.
