ENG   FRE   UK Services, Products & Treatment Our Guarantee   Services - Services , Products & Treatment Weed Man lawn care products are specifically registered for use on home lawns. This means that they have undergone extensive government review for safety and effectiveness. This review and registration process can take up to seven years. Two years alone are needed for the government to analyze industry and university product tests. Testing accounts for about half the cost of developing a new lawn care product. Each product must be re-approved every 5 years. There are more regulations on lawn care products and there has been more research conducted to ensure they are utilized safely than the vast majority of the prescription pharmaceuticals that humans frequently ingest.

Soil PH Control pH measures the acidity and akalinity of the soil. For quality turfgrass, soil pH should be kept near 6.5 When pH is not in range, we lose the effective use of nutrients in the soil.
