Weed Control
Wisconsin’s mix of clay-heavy soils, warm summers, and wet springs creates ideal conditions for crabgrass, creeping Charlie, and broadleaf weeds to crowd out your lawn and garden beds. Martinez Landscaping applies pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control treatments timed to Southern Wisconsin’s growing season, not a national schedule. Whether your lawn is fighting dandelions along the road or your beds are overrun with bindweed, we treat the problem at the root and keep it from coming back.
- Pre-emergent treatments applied in early spring before crabgrass and annual weeds germinate in Wisconsin soils
- Post-emergent spot treatments targeting actively growing broadleaf weeds like dandelions, clover, creeping Charlie, and thistle
- Bed weed control using appropriate herbicides and hand-pulling to protect ornamental plants while eliminating unwanted growth
- Treatment timing matched to local soil temperature data and Oconomowoc-area weather patterns, not a generic national calendar
- Follow-up assessment included to confirm treatment effectiveness and catch any regrowth before it spreads
- Documentation of what was applied and when, so you have a record for follow-up treatments or questions about your lawn
How It Works
Our Process for Weed Control
Free written estimate
We walk your lawn and garden beds, identify the weed species present, and note any problem areas before recommending a treatment plan. You get the estimate in writing with no pressure to commit.
Treatment scheduling
We schedule applications around your lawn’s condition, the local weather forecast, and the right timing window for pre-emergent versus post-emergent products to actually work in Wisconsin’s climate.
Application day
Our crew applies the appropriate herbicides to your lawn or beds using calibrated equipment. We mark treated areas and let you know when it is safe to allow kids and pets back on the lawn.
Follow-up check
We check back to confirm the weeds responded to treatment. If regrowth appears or we missed a spot, we address it before closing out the job.

Common Questions
FAQ: Weed Control
Creeping Charlie typically requires two to three targeted post-emergent applications spaced a few weeks apart because it spreads through underground stems. One treatment knocks it back but rarely eliminates it completely on the first pass.
Most products are safe once the treated area has dried, which usually takes one to two hours. We will tell you exactly how long to wait based on what was applied at your property.
In the Oconomowoc and Waukesha County area, pre-emergent needs to go down when soil temperatures hit around 50 degrees Fahrenheit, which typically falls between late April and early May depending on the year.
