Here at Grasshopper Lawns Inc, we offer several programs that will enhance the health and beauty of your surroundings. Our most popular program, the Lawn Care Program, includes a 7 step “weed & feed” type of service that will help thicken your lawn without over applying pesticides. Our program utilizes slow released balanced fertilizer for healthy controlled growth, broadleaf weed controls to take out the widest variety of weeds like dandelions and a control for crabgrass. We even include beneficial services such as lime to help sweeten the soil and a grub control to stop white grubs from damaging your property.
When we come out to analyze your lawn, our knowledgeable staff will recommend the best approach to make your lawn the envy of the neighborhood.
Aeration & Seeding
Restores the old worn out grasses with the latest varieties that are more drought, insect and disease resistant. Sometimes even great looking lawns need to be aerated and seeded from time to time. Grasshopper Lawns has been seeding and improving lawns since 1964.
Crabgrass Control
An effective crabgrass control program should be started in the spring. 100% control is unlikely because of changing weather conditions, timing of application, cultural practices such as mowing, and number of years of treatments. Ideally, 90% control can be obtained by preventing this weed before its spring germination.
Lime
Lime “sweetens” your soil in areas where soil is naturally “sour” or acid. This is extremely important to growing healthy turf. Grasshopper Lawns can help improve your lawns color and density, control thatch, and increases root development with an annual lime application.
Soil Test
To understand what is going on with your lawn, its important to know what’s going on under your lawn. Grasshopper Lawns provides a soil test service which includes taking soil samples, sending them to a state certified lab, reading the results and recommending solutions to you.
Core Aeration
This is probably the most misunderstood but most beneficial service your lawn could have. Core aeration helps control thatch, improves the soil structure, helps create growth pockets for new roots, and opens the way for water and fertilizer to get into the root zone of your lawn. Grasshopper Lawns recommends annual aeration for most lawns.
Lawns with Few Weeds
Some weeds can be pulled out of your yard by hand, but many will grow right back because of their deep root system. To most people it may appear that the entire weed has been pulled out but the roots just break off and what is left in your yard will sprout new weeds. To kill the entire weed call, (800) 287-6113 for a greener more beautiful lawn!

Treat Your Lawn for Fleas and Ticks
Treating your pet for fleas and ticks is a good start, but what about your yard where your pets plays? Your lawn can harbor a considerable amount of fleas and ticks and with the heat of summer the threat will only increase. Even if your pet avoids bites, he or she could still track the insects into your home. Grasshopper Lawns can treat your lawn with our specialized flea and tick service to kill harmful bugs, so you, your children and your pet can make the most of your yard.
Fleas
Fleas thrive in warm or humid weather and can lay up to 50 eggs each and every day. One of the first signs your pet has fleas is “flea dirt black flea droppings on your pet’s skin. Remember to always see your vet for appropriate treatments.
Ticks
Ticks are very often found around a dog’s neck, in his or her ears, in the folds between the legs and their body, and between the paws. Ticks are capable of spreading infectious and diseases like Lyme disease, so prompt removal of ticks is very important and remember to always see your vet for appropriate treatments.
Grub Control
There are several types of white grubs that feed on the roots of lawn grasses. All of them can cause severe damage if left untreated. Grubs live and feed in the soil. It’s easy to miss them as they gradually cut the roots out from under your lawn until brown patches begin to appear and the grubs are finally discovered. Call Grasshopper Lawns and we can check your lawn for these damaging insects.
Bug Barrier (Perimeter Pest Control)
Is a series of applications beginning in early spring, which establishes an insect shield around your home. This shield drastically reduces the number of insects that can get to or in your home. We keep pests out by targeting where they gain entry as well as areas they hide outside of your home. Call our office to take advantage of this valuable service to protect your home from uninvited guests!
Shrub Bed Weed Control
If fighting unwanted weeds in your shrub beds is something you don’t like to do – Give us a call, we can set up a program that will greatly reduce the amount of weeds growing in places you don’t want them. Typically three to four applications a year will keep the weeds from becoming a nuisance.
For best results, this program must be started prior to weed germination which is normally as soon as the snow is gone in the spring.
Tree and Shrub Care
This program is designed to protect your valuable ornamental trees and shrubs from damaging insects, mites and scale pests by incorporating an integrated pest management approach to maximize control while minimizing pesticide usage. Call Grasshopper Lawns for a free estimate.
Renovation – Bring new life to your lawn!
The lawn you depend on to enhance your home’s beauty needs special attention. Throughout the years, established turf can deteriorate from the presence of weak grass varieties, disease, drought, insect damage or thatch buildup. A renovation can bring new life to your lawn. This is achieved by killing off the old lawn and planting the newest grass seed varieties available. The advantages to a renovation are many. First of all is the reasonable cost. A Grasshopper Lawns renovation is often the most cost effective procedure for long term improvement. Since new turf is protected by the old turf, light foot traffic can be supported on the area, immediately following renovation. The whole process from start to finish is approximately 6 weeks.
Deer Control
Are you tired of coming home and finding your valuable trees and shrubs have been chewed down to mere stubs by the deer? Well finally, Grasshopper Lawns has a deer repellent that really works! When we make an application of Deer Control, you get long lasting protection from browsing deer that won’t wash off.
