Nutri-Lawn Blog

Customer Service, Client Experience, Customer Care….there are a lot of buzzwords out there these days that companies use to win over the paying public. Why so many phrases and what do they mean? What’s the difference? Let’s take a look.

Summertime is the season for many things - most especially the outdoors! Now that the rain has (mostly) left us, we have moved from the warmth and comfort of our homes to the outdoor beauty of our Lower Mainland. While spending time on the deck, or playing in the yard, you may have noticed that not everyone enjoys the heat of summer. 

GRUBS!!  There aren’t many here in the Lower Mainland who aren’t familiar with that word or who haven’t seen animals attacking either theirs or their neighbour’s lawns. It is a difficult issue for homeowners year after year, spending money to repair their lawn only to see the skunks, raccoons and crows back at their lawn the very next year.

For the last few weeks we have been talking about how to create a healthy environment for your grass to grow in.  We started by looking at the soil and the importance of balancing your pH, how important a Core Aeration is to have done every year, how and why weeds and moss grows as well as some typical issues we hear from clients that they need solved. 

In the last few weeks we have spoken about many different issues that you may be seeing happening on your lawn and how Nutri-Lawn has all the solutions you need! We also spoke about the importance of balancing the pH in your soil and that a healthy lawn is the best defense against any unwanted plants or insects. 

Welcome to our last installment of our “What does my lawn need?” series!  For those of you coming to this series late, check out our last 4 blogs to find out more about some other common lawn issues like animal damage, standing water, brown and dry areas and weeds.

Welcome to part 4 of our “What does my lawn Need” series. Today, let’s chat about the one thing that most lawns battle with - Weeds! 

Here at Nutri-Lawn Vancouver, we hear from new clients all the time about this battle. They complain that as soon as they have removed the weeds in their lawns either by use of a product off the shelf, or pulling them out of the lawn that they always come back. “STOP the madness!” they cry!  Well, I am happy to tell you that your solution has arrived!

Part 3 in our series of What does my Lawn Need Blogs brings us to Brown and Bare Lawns.  In our other 2 parts, we discussed Animals Damaging our Lawns and last week we chatted about standing water.  This week, a sight that we see most often in the Summer, those dry, dormant, brown and bare lawns!

In our last blog, we chatted about the animal damage that we can see on lawns throughout the Lower Mainland.  Animals like raccoons, skunks and crows are digging, pecking and rolling the lawns looking for the European Chafer Beetle grubs. If you missed our last blog, check it out here.

Life here in the Lower Mainland can get pretty hectic - and expensive - which keeps us all on the go most of the time. Usually the only time we have to even consider our lawns happens to fall on the trusted weekend, a time we spend with our Family, Friends and all those other chores that always seem to pile up.
