The Spokane County government keeps a close eye on noxious weeds in the area. In 2020, the Noxious Weed Board identified the top problematic weeds in the county, including those listed below. Check out their website for more information on how to control noxious weeds in your yard this fall.
Types of Lawn Weeds:
- Spotted Knapweed
- Common Bugloss
- Rush Skeletonweed
- Garlic Mustard
- Wild Four O’clock
- Dalmatian Toadflax
- Canada Thistle
- Hoary Alyssum
- Common Mullein
- Scotch Thistle
- Leafy Spurge
The problem with dealing with such a variety of different species is weed control is not a one-size-fits-all project. For example, simply mowing or cutting Garlic Mustard isn’t enough to get rid of it. You either need to hand pull the weed or use chemicals to kill the root. That's why it's best to leave such a service to the professionals at The Grounds Guys of Spokane.

Which package you choose depends on your priorities. If you’re concerned about 100% safety and eco-friendliness, we recommend going with the Organic Lawn Care Program.

We can provide recommendations if you’re unsure about your choice.
Why Are Weeds Bad?
Weeds are often seen as an unwelcome sight in lawns and gardens, as they can have a harmful effect on your property. Weeds are incredibly good at growing where they’re not wanted. Once you have two or three weeds in your yard, it won’t take long for them to multiply exponentially. Weeds also compete with your lawn, flowers, and shrubs for the same nutrients in the soil and the same sunlight. Additionally, if weeds overshadow your grass, it could start to die, making your lawn look brown and unhealthy. That's why it's important to invest in professional weed control services in Spokane.
Benefits of Weed Control:
- It improves the aesthetics of your lawn
- It allows light to reach plants that need it for growth
- It improves soil health and structure
- It reduces the number of weeds that could potentially grow in the future
- It prevents weeds from taking nutrients from other plants in the lawn and garden
- It protects the health of your plants as weeds can harbor diseases that can spread to your plants
- It helps reduce the occurrence of pest infestations as several pests use weeds as hiding spots, making it easier to detect them on time to take preventive action accordingly
