Lawn Fertilizing and Weed Control Services
At Hospenthal Lawn Care & Irrigation, we’ve developed a 4-step program to ensure that your lawn consistently receives the fertilization and weed control services it needs to thrive.
Why Fertilize?
Fertilization is key to the health of your lawn. Most soils aren’t able to provide everything that your lawn needs throughout the growing season.
Our specially formulated fertilizers will help to promote new leaf and root growth, reduce weed growth, and replace nutrients lost to leaching.
Fertilizer applications can also help your lawn recover from foot traffic, pest infestations, or other damage.
Expert Fertilization Techniques
Our experts will apply the right fertilizer blends at the right times to ensure that you’ll have a healthy lawn all season long. Applications in the spring and summer will help to strengthen your grass while late-season applications aid your lawn in developing strong roots throughout the winter, preparing it for healthy growth in the spring.
Weed Control
Weed control can be challenging for homeowners because each invasive, undesirable plant has a different life cycle. Our experts are familiar with weeds common to this area, enabling us to apply the most effective herbicides to eradicate the problem. And of course, the best long-term strategy for a weed-free lawn is regular maintenance to keep your lawn healthy and strong, helping it to resist weed infestations no matter what weather and soil conditions we may encounter throughout the year.

Lawn Mowing & Dethatching
With weekly mowing and lawn dethatching services from Hospenthal Lawn Care & Irrigation, you can be sure that your lawn will receive the care it needs for optimal health and growth. Regular mowing not only keeps your lawn looking great, but our knowledgeable team will keep your lawn at the correct height to promote healthy root development, weed prevention, and drought tolerance. Weekly mowing paired with dethatching services ensure that your grass is not only protected but is also able to get the water and nutrients it needs to thrive.
What is Thatch?
Thatch is a layer of organic material, such as dead grass and roots, that builds up on the surface of soil. If it becomes too thick, it can hinder water, air, and nutrient flow.
The Top 7 Benefits of Dethatching
- Improves drainage
- Allows nutrients, water, and air to penetrate the soil
- Improves root growth
- Allows fertilizer to more easily reach the soil
- Stimulates existing grass roots and encourages new root growth
- Prepares the lawn for reseeding or overseeding, improving germination chances
- Promotes healthy grass, which helps fight weeds

Lawn Aeration
What Is Aeration?
Lawn aeration is the process of creating small holes in compacted soil to allow your grass and soil to breathe. It helps water, oxygen, and nutrients access the soil, promoting healthier and stronger grass growth.
Benefits of Aeration
- Improved air exchange between the soil and atmosphere
- Enhanced soil water uptake
- Improved fertilizer uptake and use
- Reduced water runoff and puddling
- Stronger turfgrass roots
- Reduced soil compaction
- Enhanced heat and drought stress tolerance
- Improved resilience and cushioning
- Enhanced thatch breakdown
Why Is Aeration Important?
Everyday activities such as walking and playing on your grass and mowing your lawn can compact the soil, reducing large air spaces where roots grow.
This is especially severe in the top 1-1.5 inches of soil and in heavy clay soils.
Aeration helps relieve compaction, enabling deeper root growth and better water and fertilizer utilization.
Aeration vs. Dethatching
Both aeration and dethatching are essential lawn care practices, but they target different problems.
- Aeration relieves soil compaction and improves the exchange of oxygen, water, and nutrients.
- Dethatching removes the layer of thatch to improve drainage and access to soil for roots.
Our friendly and knowledgeable staff would be happy to tell you more about how both aeration and dethatching can help your lawn to thrive.

Our sidewalk and driveway edging services not only enhance the look of your property with crisp, clean boundaries between your lawn and hard surfaces, but they also prevent weeds from spreading onto paved areas.
