Getting Your Lawn Prepared
for a Beautiful Spring
Pre-emergents are a major part of preparing your lawn for the spring. They
deter weeds from flourishing in your lawn by attacking their root system
and at the same time give the lawn root system a boost of prevention against
cold along with a taste of vitamins.
YOUR LAWN HAS CERTAIN NEEDS THIS
TIME OF THE YEAR. HERE ARE A FEW
THINGS TO REMEMBER:
Scalp Your Lawn – to scalp Bermuda grass means
to cut grass off the top inch of the dormant layer.
This should be done in March or April when the
grass is turning green. This will make your grass
grow and look better.
Q: When should
aeration be scheduled?
Core Aeration – Loosens compacted soil and
allows for a healthier and stronger root system.
A: No. Aeration needs to be an ongoing part of
lawn care just like your fertilization.
Q: How do I know if a yard needs aeration?
Q: When will positive results be seen in the lawn?
A: Lawns with known clay soils, heavy traffic,
more than ½" of thatch, standing water after
irrigation or rain, or lawns that brown easily in
heat are all excellent candidates. In reality, any
yard, healthy or not, can benefit from annual
aeration.
A: Depending on turf conditions, visual results
may or may not be immediate from a single
aeration. However, subterranean roots and
overall health and stress tolerance will begin
to improve almost immediately. Even in the
toughest conditions aeration in combination with
the appropriate fertilizing, irrigation and weed
control program will show dramatic visual results
after a second or third aeration.
Q: Will spiking do the same thing?
A: No. It actually compacts the soil rather than
removing the core.

Are Mosquitoes Keeping You
From Enjoying Your
Summer Outside?
Let Dorsey’s mosquito reduction program help you take
back the outdoors. A Dorsey’s professional will come out
and evaluate your landscape. We will gladly set up a plan to
meet your needs, whether you’re having an event in your
yard that requires a one-time treatment or if you just want
to spend more time outside with the kids without getting
attacked by mosquitoes. Dorsey’s can cater to your needs!
$$ GET PEST
CONTROL AT
BIG SAVINGS $$
Dorsey’s has found an improved means
of household pest control that is both
safer and more cost effective for our
customers. It is called perimeter pest
control. What this means is you no longer
have to schedule to be home to receive
your quarterly treatment. We provide an
outside perimeter to keep the bugs out
and to provide a safe environment inside.
This gives you, your family, and your pets a
healthier environment to enjoy. The initial
treatment may include the inside as well
as outside. After this initial visit, you will
continue to receive exterior treatments
to keep the pest barrier active at a BIG
SAVINGS. If you see pests inside, simply call
for an appointment for a free service call.
