Weeds

It is no secret weeds thrive in Tucson and throughout Southern Arizona. Not only can they be unsightly, but weeds can deprive your lawns, gardens and other ornamental plants of the water and nutrition they need. Conquistador Pest and Termite can help you contain the growth and spread of weeds with our Pre-Emergent and Post-Emergent (Spot Treatment) weed applications.

The key to a successful herbicide control program is a two pre-emergence applications and monthly spot treatments. Our Pre-Emergent application stops weeds before they even start. This weed application is sprayed over rock or lawn areas and is absorbed into the soil to stop the seeds of annual weeds from germinating. It is easier and more cost effective to detect and kill weeds early. With just two pre-emergent treatments per year, you can cut down weed growth by 80% over six months. Our treatments are tough on weeds and will keep them from taking root and growing in the first place.

This will fix the problem before it even begins! We recommend monthly inspections and touch up applications to control the new weeds that germinate after our initial application. Post-emergence herbicides are used to kill visible weeds. Some weeds may have started growing, but have not emerged through the soil surface, so subsequent visits and applications will be necessary.
