Fertilization
Jump Start Lawncare, Inc. has developed fertilization programs to keep your lawn
looking it’s best. Our premium program is the GOLD PROGRAM which consists of:
Preventive grub control applied once per year that will eliminate grubs eating
the roots of your lawn guaranteed. Preventive surface insect control application
once per year will help to keep chinch bugs, sod webworms, ants, ticks, and
fleas out of your lawn.
We also recommend that core aeration be done in the spring or fall to prevent
thatch build-up, stimulate growth, and to allow fertilizer, air and water to get
down into the soil by the root zone. Thatching can also be done if the thatch in
your lawn exceeds 1 inch in the spring or fall.
We evaluate what type of grass you have in your yard and will make
recommendations to fix problems. Some yards never have thick green turf because
of the grass planted, maybe a shade grass planted in a sunny area. Slice seeding
or aeration with overseeding can help, instead of replacing your lawn. We also
try to mix in organic products in with our regular program.
Our two programs offered are:

Tree and Shrub Program
Fertilize tree and shrubs once a year, spring and fall. Apply 3 applications
of disease and insect control which would give one season control of some common insects. Prune tree and
shrubs twice a year. We can also spray any weeds in your beds at that time. Organic Tree & Shrub Program
Three or four applications of foliar sprays which are rapidly absorbed within a
few hours after application. The following nutrients are delivered into your
tree and shrub's vascular system: Vitamins A, B, complex C, D, E, F, folic acid,
biotin, thiamine, nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium and more. This foliar spray
program provides the nutritional demands of each growth cycle while boosting
natural defenses against disease, insects and weather stress. All organic.
Lawn Maintenance
Includes weekly mowing. Edging and trimming to provide professional look.
Spraying weeds in beds, along sidewalks, and driveway. Trimming shrubs and
small tress.
Spring and Fall Clean-up
Includes remove old leaves, branches and debris from your lawn and beds.
Cut and or trim perennials to provide proper growth potential and health.
Proper clean-up preparation can eliminate any potential future problems.
Bed Maintenance
We can put down pre-emergent in all flower beds, around house, around tree
rings, any mulched area
to prevent weeds from germinating. This is done before mulching. We can also cut
back any of your perennials at that time, such as ornamental grasses, etc. We
can also clean beds of leaves or debris left from previous year and do any
pruning needed. We also edge beds and around trees so you're ready for
mulching.
Lawn Restoration
Our team of experts will determine why your lawn deteriorated so that corrective
measures can be taken as a part of the restoration process. Lawn restoration
includes cutting grass down as low as possible, thatching lawn to remove dead
grass, aeration to provide holes in lawn for overseeding, applying starter
fertilizer, overseeding whole yard with correct type of grass seed for the area,
and covering seed with penn mulch, which is better than straw.
This process is 1/2 the cost of installing a new lawn.
Dethatching
Thatch is a build-up of turf grass roots, stems and leaves on the soil surface.
Grass clippings do not contribute significantly to thatch build-up. A thin layer
of thatch is not a serious problem. Excess thatch can cause insect and disease
problems. If your lawn feels like carpet when you walk on it, your lawn would
benefit from dethatching.
Core Aeration
Golf course supervisors have known for years the secret to a beautiful dense
turf is to aerate 2-3 times per year. Now your lawn can enjoy the benefits of
professional aeration! Some benefits are to loosen compacted clay soil, allows
air, water and nutrients to get down into the soil, promotes root development,
and provides a good environment for overseeding.
Slice Seeding
Slice seeding is an option for a thin lawn or a lawn with many bare spots. Slice
seeding cuts lines in your lawn and drops seed into it at the same time. It can
help make an old lawn look brand new.
Organic Mosquito Barrier Control
Just one mosquito bite can transmit West Nile virus or other diseases. This is
an organic product that we can spray around house on tree and shrubs, and lawn
that can control mosquitoes, fleas and ticks up to 4 weeks.
