Choose TruGreen Memphis for Lawn Care Maintenance & Treatment
Because Memphis is one of the wettest cities in America, local homeowners face two big landscaping problems: weeds and lawn disease. The muggy Tennessee summers provide the perfect humid breeding grounds for both, especially on top of the large amounts of rainfall we get in the Memphis area. So though your grass will grow, it may not always be the healthiest—that’s where TruGreen Memphis comes in.
TruGreen Lawn Care Process for Memphis Residents
The first thing that we do with new customers is send our PhD-certified lawn care experts to your Tennessee home to perform a Healthy Lawn Analysis®.✦ We’ll check your yard to see how the specific Memphis climate and rainfall are affecting your lawn’s health, plus perform a pH balance test on your soil to make sure your grass has the best growing environment possible. Depending on what we find—insects, grubs, disease, lack of nutrients—we’ll formulate a scientifically backed plan to make your Memphis lawn the healthy, green patch of relaxation it should be.- Soil amendment. If your soil isn’t optimized for grass growth, nothing else you do to take care of your yard is going to work very well. Our certified TruGreen Memphis lawn care professionals start off by adding the required nutrients and minerals healthy lawns need to grow then come back every 4 to 6 weeks as needed to make sure all of your levels are still good.
- Killing weeds. A healthy lawn naturally “weeds out” weeds on its own, so our goal is to help your grass grow dense so weeds can’t compete in your yard. To do that, we first apply targeted weed control to kill what’s currently in your grass and then come back with pre-emergent herbicide applications as needed to make sure weeds don’t return to give you a healthy lawn and environment.
- Get rid of frequently occurring Memphis lawn diseases. Tennessee is known for large rainfalls, short winters and muggy summers, meaning your lawn is almost always at risk for lawn fungus—especially the three most common Memphis lawn diseases: Brown Patch, Fairy Ring and Dollar Spot. Your local TruGreen expert will help you get rid of any current lawn diseases and then make sure your grass has access to the proper nutrients and fertilizer it needs to grow strong so it can resist diseases in the future. Our tree and shrub service can do the same for your landscaping, keeping it not only disease-free but insect-free as well.
- Mosquito control. With all the Memphis rainfall and humidity, yards and lawns can easily become overrun with mosquitoes that breed anywhere standing water is found. TruGreen Memphis knows where these bloodsuckers hide and can eliminate mosquitoes from your yard in less than 24 hours with our Mosquito Defense treatment spray, giving your family peace of mind when it comes to Zika and West Nile Virus.
TruGreen Memphis has one goal, and that’s to give you the lush, healthy green lawn that you deserve. We also think that the city of Memphis deserves the same, which is why we’ve renovated and revitalized numerous public parks as well as high school baseball, soccer and football fields all around Memphis, TN in the most deserving communities as part of our TruNeighbor Program.
So whether you want to raise your curb appeal or just live a better life outside, we’ve got you—and the city of Memphis—covered.
