Lawn weed control services in North Texas
Weeds can take over a lawn fast in North Texas, especially with our warm climate, clay soils, and long growing season. Homeowners in Celina, Prosper, McKinney, Frisco, Little Elm, Aubrey, and the surrounding communities deal with the same stubborn problems every year: crabgrass spreading across the yard, dallisgrass forming tough clumps, nutsedge popping up after rain, henbit in the winter, and broadleaf weeds like clover, chickweed, and dandelions crowding out healthy grass. If your lawn is showing signs of weeds taking hold, it’s time to get ahead of the problem.
At FJV Landscape & Irrigation, we use proven treatment methods that target weeds at the right time of year so your lawn can grow thick and healthy. Our approach focuses on both pre-emergent applications to stop new weeds before they appear and post-emergent treatments to eliminate the weeds already in your yard. With the right products and proper timing, we can turn a patchy, weed-filled lawn into a yard you’ll actually enjoy looking at.
If you’re tired of weeds coming back every season or you’ve tried DIY treatments that didn’t work, we’re here to help. Our weed control programs are built for Texas lawns and designed to give you real, noticeable results.

How our weed control program works
Effective weed control isn’t a one-time treatment. It’s a seasonal program built around timing, turf health, and targeted applications. We combine pre-emergent and post-emergent products so your lawn is protected year-round, even during peak growing months in North Texas.
Our approach includes:
-
- Pre-emergent applications to block weeds before they ever break the surface
- Post-emergent treatments to eliminate existing weeds quickly and safely
- Seasonal timing based on temperature, soil conditions, and weed growth cycles
- Selective products that target weeds without harming your grass
- Improved turf density, which naturally reduces future weed growth
- Integration with mowing and fertilization, creating a stronger, healthier lawn overall
This combination gives your lawn the best chance to stay clean, thick, and weed-free throughout the year, even in tough Texas conditions.
Questions about weed control?
Do you have questions about the weed control services we offer? We know you have questions and hopefully you'll find some answers here. If you have additional questions, feel free to reach out and we'd be happy to help.
How long does it take to see results after a weed control treatment?
Most weeds begin to curl, discolor, or weaken within a few days. Tougher weeds like dallisgrass and nutsedge may take longer, but you’ll still see steady progress as the treatment takes effect.
Do you use pre-emergent and post-emergent products?
Yes. Pre-emergents stop new weeds from sprouting, while post-emergents target the weeds already in your yard. Using both is the most effective way to maintain a weed-free lawn.
Will weed control harm my grass?
No. We use selective products designed to target weeds without damaging healthy turf. This is especially important for Bermuda and Zoysia lawns in North Texas.
Why do weeds keep coming back every year?
Most weeds return because the lawn isn’t treated at the right time, or the grass isn’t thick enough to crowd them out. Our program focuses on timing, prevention, and improving overall turf health so weeds have fewer opportunities to grow.
Can you treat stubborn weeds like nutsedge and dallisgrass?
Yes. These weeds are more resilient than most broadleaf weeds, but we have treatments designed specifically for them. They often require multiple applications for full control.
Is weed control a one-time service or a recurring program?
Weed control is most effective as a recurring, seasonal program. Treating once will help temporarily, but consistent applications prevent new weeds and eliminate emerging ones.
Is it safe for pets and children?
Yes. Once the product has dried, the lawn is safe for normal use. Dry time is typically one to two hours, depending on weather.
Will weed control improve the look of my lawn right away
You’ll see noticeable improvement as weeds die off, but pairing weed control with mowing and fertilization delivers the best long-term results.
