Weed Control

Winter weed and poa annua control in Middle Tennessee: fall barriers and early spring treatments for henbit, chickweed and annual bluegrass

Green weeds in a dormant lawn are winter weeds. A fall barrier keeps them out and a spring treatment cleans up the rest.

Winter Weed & Poa Annua Control

Winter weeds sprout in fall and grow through the cool months: henbit and its purple flowers, chickweed, annual bluegrass (poa annua), hairy bittercress and more. They are most obvious in warm-season lawns that turn brown for winter, but they also invade thin fescue. A fall pre-emergent stops most of them, and a targeted spring treatment cleans up the rest before they set seed.

We control winter weeds across Middle Tennessee, in Nashville lawns and the surrounding counties. We apply fall barriers in September, treat existing weeds on mild winter days when they take products well and plan overseeding and aeration around the barrier.

FAQ

Common questions about winter weeds & poa annua

Why does my dormant lawn have green weeds?

Winter weeds grow while warm-season grass is dormant. A fall barrier stops many of them.

Can I kill winter weeds in January?

Yes, on days when it is mild enough for the product to work.

What is poa annua?

A cool-season annual bluegrass that makes seed heads and patches in spring. It needs a barrier and good turf density.
