I had asked the Fertigator people about how they get rid of the weeds and they said they don't spray them that they make all of the other grass so healthy that it fills in so nicely. Our grass was in really bad shape when we started with Fertigator. We had another well-known lawn care company for the two years prior and they wouldn't spray for obvious mold, kept telling us it was drought. I finally fired them. Our neighbor used Fertigator and I called them. They said our lawn was being mowed way too high and fungus was growing underneath. They told us to lower the mower and give it a tight mow. Then they used a machine to dethatch the lawn. After that they sprayed for the fungus two different times. Within a month things were looking much better. Now it is about 3 months later and we have one of the best lawns around. The price was about $50 a month but that includes lawn and shrub fertilizer, pest control and termite protection. You're welcome to come and see our lawn for yourself. We live in Hadley. Just PM me.

I bet it looks real nice, BUT I bet that "Torpedo Grass" is still in your yard. Right now torpedo grass will slow down it's growth on top, but still travel underground. I'm like you now, if it looks green, that's all that counts. I'm getting the torpedo grass from neighbor, but it's not their fault. Thank goodness it's in the back yard, and not the front.
