Eliminate Weeds the Easy Way With General Tree’s Weed Control Experts
Weeds are more than just an eyesore. They can spread rapidly and wind up damaging your lawn. Pulling weeds is an option, but it only provides temporary relief— and gives you a sore back in the process. It seems like as soon as your back stops hurting, your lawn is infested again. Store-bought weed killers may help for certain types of weeds, but if other kinds sprout up, you can find yourself spending a fortune on different weed killers. Not to mention the hassle of spraying the stuff around the yard yourself.The best way to deal with weeds is to prevent them from growing in the first place. We’re proud to offer residential and commercial weed control services from Salem to Portland and SW Washington. Our weed control service is the ideal solution for any home or commercial property that has areas where you don’t want weeds to grow.

Weed control makes life easier
There are two main types of weed-control products: pre-emergent and post-emergent. As you can probably guess, pre-emergent stops weeds before they start. But, sometimes a few tenacious weeds still manage to take root in your yard. That’s where post-emergent weed control products come into play. They destroy weeds that have already sprouted to help control the spread of seeds and to provide supplemental protection all year long.
Having a pre-emergent treatment at regularly scheduled intervals keeps weeds from growing so you can enjoy your yard and keep it looking its best.
The best part is that professional weed control saves you time, money, and an aching back.
- Save time – Pulling weeds is a never-ending cycle we can stop.
- Save money – It’s less expensive to prevent weeds from ever-growing.
- Save your back – When you’re not pulling weeds or stooping down to spray them, your back will thank you.
Prevent Weeds Without Damaging Your Lawn
You may be wondering how General Tree’s weed products work. After all, using a herbicide that can kill your grass defeats the purpose of weed control. To prevent this from happening, our experts use selective-herbicides that are designed to kill only certain types of weeds. These will leave your grass unharmed.
Certain types of weeds require special treatment, and we can provide that tailored approach. After decades of weed-control experience in the Pacific Northwest, we know what works best on commercial and residential properties.

ON-GOING MAINTENANCE STOPS WEEDS
The pre-emergent treatment needs to be applied in the spring (before weeds start growing) and fall every year so clients need to think of weed control as an ongoing maintenance item and not a one time service.
Weed seeds are carried by animals, the wind, and can even wind up in your yard after sticking to your clothing. This is why weed control needs to be done on a regular basis. There is no easy fix, but professional weed control from General Tree can save you a bundle of money and a ton of time.
Getting started on weed control may take time. The first year you’ll see an improvement, with existing weeds dying after a few weeks. But the second year of application is where things really start to take off with clients reporting a 90-95% reduction in weeds.
We also offer commercial services! Keep your property looking great year-round with commercial weed control. Pre and post-emergent treatments are applied at the same time to keep your property free of weeds.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
One of the greatest challenges on our landscaped acre had been the weeds that came back in full abundance every spring. It was a back breaking task that took weeks and even months to get under control. I was referred General Tree regarding Pre-emergent applications and have had the application applied once each spring and again in the fall.
I cannot tell you how pleased we have been with the results. Yard work is now fun as the hard part is gone. Plus, the application does not harm any of the other plants in your yard. I HIGHLY recommend Pre-emergent from General Tree for anyone that hates weeding and cares about their landscaping.
