What's different about lawns in Monticello?

Monticello is the White County seat, set between Lake Shafer and Lake Freeman on the Tippecanoe River, with Indiana Beach on Lake Shafer. Many homes here sit on or near the water.

Lakeside yards are great to look at and great for mosquitoes, which breed in still water around docks, boat covers and low spots. Our mosquito program treats the yard five times a season starting in mid-April, and a thick lawn holds soil along the water better than thin grass. Our shop is about 26 miles away, roughly 50 minutes by road.

What lawn services do we offer in Monticello?

Fertilization and weed control

Custom-blended fertilizer for high-pH Indiana soil, a two-part crabgrass program, and broadleaf treatments for dandelions, clover and thistle. Every 4 to 6 weeks, March through November.

Aeration and overseeding

Fall core aeration opens up compacted soil, and we seed right into the holes with a tall fescue blend built for Indiana. Between August 15 and the end of September only.

Grub, insect and disease protection

One late-spring application stops grubs, billbugs, chinch bugs and armyworms through fall. Technicians also watch for brown patch, dollar spot and red thread on every visit.

Outdoor pest control

Mosquito, flea and tick treatments for the yard, and a perimeter barrier for the house. Five visits a season from mid-April.

Sprinkler and irrigation service

Sprinkler system startup, audits, backflow testing and winterization in three yearly packages, plus repairs when something breaks.

Questions Monticello homeowners ask us

How far is Monticello from your shop?

Our shop is at 8823 E 100 N in Lafayette, about 26 miles from Monticello, roughly 50 minutes by road. Monticello (47960) is in our service area. If you're not sure about your address, send it with your quote request and we'll tell you.

Is lawn care worth it on a small-town lot?

Yes. Packages are priced by lawn size, so a small lot costs less, and a tidy lawn is most of a small house's curb appeal.

Why is my lawn full of weeds every spring?

Because nothing stopped the seeds that were already in the soil. Pre-emergent in early spring and again in fall, plus treatments through the season, is how you finally get ahead.

Will the products be safe for my dog and kids?

Yes, once dry, usually within 1 to 2 hours.
