Owasso Weed Control & Fertilization
Owasso is a great place to own a lawn, but it is not as easy as just regular maintenance. Our 7 step program at Walter's Lawn Service combines fertilization and weed control to give residential and commercial clients long lasting, preventative results. We know that every season brings a new challenge for lawn care. Our program addresses these challenges and strengthens your lawn. Whether your residence is private or you manage a commercial business, we make sure that your lawn is protected against Oklahoma's most common weeds.
Owasso lawns battle all sorts of weeds throughout the whole year including crabgrass, henbit, clover, dandelions, and broadleaf weeds. These weeds are competing for the same resources as your grass, and easily outgrow it. The purpose of all of our customized treatments is to improve the health of your grass while reducing the competition from weeds. Walter's Lawn Service wants to help you take the guesswork out of lawn care and give you lawn care that is professional, reliable, and local.
Professional Weed Control for Owasso Homes and Businesses
Weed Control for Jenks Lawns
Weed overgrowth is essentially an inevitability in Owasso. The local climate is very favorable for weeds. The combination of hot summers, damp season rains, and mild winters means weeds proliferate even out of control. They spread to Owens’s commercial and residential areas. Without destructive landscaping, weeds create unhealthy turf and reduce curb appeal.
Our weed control services tackle Oklahoma’s unique issues. We pick up and treat turf how we see fit with local climate conditions in mind. We know Oklahoma’s weeds and where they thrive. We provide long-range, turf viable treatment and care by using a combination of pre-emergent and post emergent treatment along with turf fertilizers.
We offer a variety of turf treatments. Bermuda, Zoysia, and Fescue may be desirable turf in Oklahoma, but they also have the weeds to contend with. To combat unwanted weeds, we schedule a treatment to grow a healthy turf.
Our 7 Step Weed Control & Fertilization Program
The Owasso lawns year-round protection and nutrition comes from our 7 step lawn treatment program.
Step 2: Early Spring Fertilization
Balanced fertilizers aid lawns in awakening from their winter dormancy and in creating extensive root systems.
Step 3: Spring Weed Control Treatment
When it gets warm we will treat visible broadleaf weeds and apply nutrients to healthy turf growth.
Step 4: Early Summer Fertilization
Lawn feeding in summer strengthens grass to help it compete better with weeds during hot, stressful weather.
Step 1: Late Winter Pre Emergent Application
Spotting crabgrass and annual weeds can be tough. That's why we implement pre-emergent weed control to block any spring weeds mid-germination.
Step 5: Summer Weed Monitoring & Treatment
Our team monitors lawn density and health and addresses growing season weeds.
Step 6: Fall Pre Emergent Application
In Owasso, weed prevention is especially important during the fall. This application helps to prevent winter weeds from emerging, such as henbit and chickweed.
Step 7: Fall Fertilization & Lawn Support
A last fertilizer application readies the lawn for winter while promoting a robust spring green up.
Common Weeds We Treat in Jenks
There are many kinds of lawn weeds that Owasso homeowners have to deal with year-round. Our treatments cover many of the most typical weeds across northeast Oklahoma.
Crabgrass
In summer, Crabgrass is one of the most prevalent weeds found in Owasso lawns. In the absence of healthy grass, crabgrass is bound to overtake the space.
Henbit
This winter annual weed shows up in late winter and early spring forming patches of purple in lawns.
Clover
Clover can invade healthy grass lawns and compete with grass for space and for water and nutrients.
Dandelions
Dandelions have long expansive root systems which make it hard to get rid of them without hiring a professional.
Chickweed
Common in the cooler months, when untreated, chickweed can spread quickly.
Broadleaf Weeds
Targeted post-emergent treatments are necessary to control multiple broadleaf weeds that affect many Owasso lawns.
Preventative weed treatments are the most efficient option to a weed less lawn. Instead of waiting to treat a weed once it’s already established, these products create a barrier to weed seeds enabling their growth.
For lawns in Owasso, time is of the essence. Before soil warms to a temperature allowing crabgrass to germinate, our team recommends pre emergent to be applied in the late winter and early spring. To inhibit winter weeds, fall pre emergent is just as essential.
Correctly timed pre emergent gives sustainable defense throughout the season and eliminates the need of multiple weed treatments throughout the season.
Pre Emergent Weed Control
Post Emergent Weed Control
Some weeds may still surface seasonally, even with treatment. Our post emergent weed control services target existing weeds and eradicate them while leaving the healthy grass unharmed.
Our specialists will determine the types of weeds present on your lawn and use the most effective treatment methods for that particular species. We will treat the weeds before they have an opportunity to spread and generate new seeds.
When weeds begin to sprout, the post emergent treatments you’ve selected become that much more urgent, and sought out, during the summer and spring
Owasso has many Bermuda grass lawns because they do well in the summer and look good, but they do need good nutrients. We have a Bermuda grass specific fertilization program that nourishes throughout the growing season. Lawns that are regularly fertilized have better color and coverage and are more drought resilient. Our program is designed to help achieve that.
A resilient Bermuda grass lawn looks good and helps prevent weed growth by giving weeds no space to grow. When combined with our professional Bermuda grass weed control, and our Bermuda grass specific fertilization, it helps establish a more resilient lawn every year.

Watering Instructions After Treatment
When it comes to weed control and fertilization, proper watering can make or break the treatment.
With the majority of pre emergent applications, watering within the suggested time frame activates the treatment and pushes it into the soil where it can start working. Depending on the timing and the weather, fertilization treatments can also be activated with light watering.
Each treatment visit includes specific instructions from our technicians. Care for your lawn the way we instruct to allow for the best treatment results and facilitate better growth.
Homeowners often wonder when it is safe for their kids and pets to go back on the lawn.
We typically recommend people wait until the treatment has completely dried. The only thing that can change that would be the weather and the specific treatment being used.
Our technicians provide property specific guidance after each application so you can feel confident using your lawn.

We communicate with our weed control program to maintain your property year-round with our mowing and maintenance services.
One Owasso homeowner reached out to us about crabgrass and clover that kept coming back year after year and spreading all throughout the lawn. The grass was patchy and thin in some spots and was not in the condition that the homeowner wanted.
We positioned the home on the 7 step weed control and fertilization program. Seasonal pre emergents, post emergents, and consistent fertilization were initiated. The first season of growing improved the lawn’s health, and the weed population was significantly reduced.
The lawn renovation was a success. It is thicker and healthier now with Bermuda grass. Weed problems were less after the treatment, and the homeowner was happier with how the lawn looked.
