Bare Ground Control
These applications are ideal when a clean, weed-free environment is required. In many cases, you can expect 3 to 5 months of control—perfect for utility enclosures, equipment storage areas, and other locations where vegetation can quickly take over.
Bare ground control is designed to create and maintain completely vegetation-free areas where grass, weeds, and other plants are unwanted. Unlike selective weed control that targets specific weeds while preserving your lawn, bare ground control eliminates all vegetation in the treated area.
Chemical Application
Professional-grade herbicides are applied to the soil that prevent plant growth both above and below the surface. These products typically include both pre-emergent (preventing seeds from germinating) and post-emergent (killing existing plants) properties for comprehensive control.
Soil Sterilization
The chemicals create a barrier in the soil that remains active for an extended period—typically 3 to 5 months—preventing new weed seeds from sprouting and killing any existing root systems.
Ideal Locations
Bare ground control is perfect for areas where you want zero vegetation, including:
- Around utility boxes and electrical enclosures
- Gravel driveways and pathways
- Equipment storage areas
- Along fence lines
- Under decks or sheds
- Around building foundations
- Parking areas
Application Process
The treatment involves spraying the designated area thoroughly to ensure complete coverage. The herbicide penetrates the soil and creates a protective barrier that lasts for months, saving you from constant weeding and maintenance.
Reapplication Schedule
Depending on weather conditions and the specific product used, reapplication is typically needed 2-3 times per year to maintain a weed-free environment throughout the growing season.
