Weed Control Service
When contemplating a weed management strategy, we suggest taking a proactive approach early to plan your treatment and allocate a specific budget, rather than waiting for issues to accumulate. Weeds are able to spread rapidly and can create environmental, economic, social, and aesthetic problems. Procrastination will only incur long-term costs.
We offer a practical weed control service which can assist with a simple cost-benefit analysis on different weed protection and management strategies. Together we can develop a customised strategy which best fits your property, time frame and lifestyle.

- Residual– the root of the weed absorbs herbicide from the soil once applied
