When can I mow my lawn after I have had an application?
We recommend waiting 24 hours to mow your lawn after it has had a treatment or products applied to it.
How long do I wait after an application to allow children or animals on the lawn?
Once the product has dried it is safe to allow children or animals on the lawn.
How often between applications?
We typically come out for treatments every 4 to 6 weeks, but this could change depending on your program since each property is unique.
Why do I have mushrooms on my lawn? How do you treat them?
Mushrooms on your lawn is a sign that your lawn is healthy, which is a good thing. We do not do treatments for mushrooms. You can pull them and discard them or mow the lawn as you normally would.
How short should the grass be mowed?
Only mow off 1/3 of the grass blade, leaving approximately 3 inches, to avoid insects, drought stress, and weeds that could invade the lawn. To accomplish this, we recommend using longer blades.
Why do I have so many weeds in my lawn?
Weeds are in the soil and are transported by wind and animals. Hot weather and heavy rain affect how many weeds will appear on a property. Once the weeds emerge from the soil, they can be sprayed. Some weeds are persistent and need to be sprayed several times.
How long will it take to service my lawn?
There is a specific walking speed for the correct amount of product to be applied. Taking the hose spraying into account, a wide path covers a large area. It may look fast, but thanks to the years of experience and training we give our technicians, you can be assured that the correct amount of product is being applied.
Why do I have so much moss?
Shade, moisture and soil are a few reasons that you could have moss on your lawn. To remove it, we suggest raking up the moss, collecting it, and then applying lime.
How can I get grass to grow in shaded areas?
To help with growing grass in shaded areas, we advise trimming any nearby trees to get maximum sunlight to produce better germination.
How can I fix dog urination areas?
We recommend removing the top layers of soil and reseeding the area if you know that a dog or animal has urinated on it.
How soon can I water my lawn after an application?
After a weed control application we recommend waiting approximately 24 hours before watering your lawn.
When can I mow my new grass?
As previously mentioned, we recommend leaving approximately 3 inches of grass when you do cut your lawn. With that being the case, you should wait until the new grass is at least 3 inches high.
What Our Customers Say
Moyer folks stepped me through the process and answered all my questions...
I had Moyer over my house Feb 3 to replace my old oil tank. Listen to them if they tell you that your oil tank is old and needs replacing. Since my old oil tank looks just fine to the naked eye, I was skeptical when they informed me that my tank may be 35 – 40 years or older. I examined the underbelly of the tank, and there were various states of rust throughout, however there was one area where there was dark colored rust, and when rubbed it released an obvious odor of heating oil. I doubt I had a year or two before I had an environmental disaster on my hands. At installation time the Moyer folks stepped me through the process and answered all my questions even when I thought I was being a pain. At the end of the installation I was confident that everything was completed correctly, and I completely understood the process through its conclusion.
I would strongly recommend Moyer for my friends and family.
I was referred to Moyer by a long time friend who had used them and was very satisfied. I called Mike T 3 years ago to get a quote on converting my oil heat and hot water to gas and he came down made some recommendations and left. He was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I told Mike that I was not ready to buy now but when I was ready, he would be first on my list to call. He made a few reasonable follow up calls but basically left me alone. 3 years later I was ready, I called Mike and we started up again. He came down and re-quoted and interestingly, the price was almost identical. A few weeks later I gave him the go ahead and we got the ball rolling. He told me to call PECO and that they would take 4-6 weeks to come out to do the gas hook up. After PECO arrived several weeks later, I called Mike and let him know. Art then scheduled the time for the guys to come and install the system. The guys showed up on time and each of them introduced themselves to me. I am naturally a skeptical person and I am leery about having strangers in my house for 3 days so I decided to work from home at least the first day. After seeing how professional they were, I let them have unfettered access to my house without me being there. The completely covered the basement floor with drop cloths and had all their tools laid out in a neat and orderly fashion. I checked in on them a few times and they seemed to get along with each other well. They didn’t smoke or curse in my house. They were true professionals. On the second and third day, they called me to tell me they were finished. With the exception of 2 new pieces of equipment in my basement, you would never know they were there.
I would strongly recommend Moyer for my friends and family. They live the saying I used to have hanging on my office wall ” A referral is sending someone you know and trust to someone you know and love”.
