Weed control on a Hernandez plan means the beds, the edges and the cracks in your concrete. Lawn treatment programs require a separate state license, so we refer those and coordinate with the provider.

## Weed Control in Baton Rouge Beds and Hard Surfaces

There are two kinds of weed control, and the difference matters in Louisiana. Chemical weed treatment of a lawn requires a state applicator license, and we do not hold one, so we do not sell it. Weed control in beds and on hard surfaces, done by hand and by keeping the ground covered, is part of every visit on our plans. This page is about the second kind.

## Weed Control in Beds

- Hand weeding on every visit, before anything seeds.
- Mulch or pine straw kept at two to three inches so seeds do not get light.
- Weed barrier fabric under decorative rock beds.
- Bed edges recut so lawn grass does not creep in.

## Weed Control on Driveways, Walks and Patios

The weeds in the cracks of a driveway are what people notice from the street, and they are the first thing Gerardo pulled on the jobs that built this company. On every visit the crew clears the joints, cracks and curb lines on the hard surfaces so the edges read clean.

## Weeds in the Lawn

A lawn mowed at the right height on a steady schedule crowds out most weeds on its own, because the grass shades the soil. Where a lawn is more weeds than grass, treatment will not fix it and sod is the honest answer. Where a lawn wants a treatment program, we will tell you and point you to a licensed provider, and coordinate our visits around theirs.

## Why We Draw the Line Where We Do

Saying what we do not do is part of how we work. We would rather keep your beds and hard surfaces clean by hand every week than sell a treatment we are not licensed for. It is the same honest scope that runs through everything else we do.
