We are away and our beds need weeding.
We are having trouble finding anyone who is willing to come and just weed. Everyone we contact says they only do "full service", meaning they'll trim and weed but not just come over to weed.

Any suggestions?

We also had trouble finding someone to just weed, I understand that no one wants to weed beds, especially in the heat for a few bucks. We paid for trimming and weeding as it was the only option we could find.

Contact Kimberly Hufschmied. She weeded and refreshed my neighbor's front yard and it looks great. Kimberly is a younger and relatively new Villager. She also does pet care, de-cluttering, home watch, etc.

Tough job to find people willing to do. Heck, tough to find people willing to do easy jobs in air conditioned space. Who wants to get on their hands and knees in the scorching heat and sun and do an incredibly boring and repetitive menial task while sweating like a pig and getting bitten by fire ants?

LOL. I guess you're not interested. I was going to offer $100K.

Choice Maintenance sprays flower beds with chemicals. They do not hand pull weeds. My flower beds look great and they haven't killed any plants yet. Good luck.

I use Roundup and do it myself. They have a jug with a built-in battery powered sprayer for about $25. Very easy.

I will do it but need to be paid in advance.

Go on NEXT DOOR (or join it) and post for someone to pull weeds.......

What Village are you in? I may be able to come by and pick the weeds for you if I can see how big a job it is.

I find the end result very rewarding.

Try ordering garden vinegar (30%) from Amazon or Home Depot. It is NOT for table use. A lot healthier than using pesticides which are bad for the environment, pollinators, and for the user..
