Jacksonville, FL lawn care service starting at $19

Grass grows year-round here in Jacksonville, and that makes lawn care challenging. Add to this those often daily afternoon rains and the occasional hurricane or tropical storm that can soak your yard. And all that sun and salt in the air and ground can make it hard to keep a green and healthy lawn. That's where LawnStarter can help. Our pros will keep your grass green and lush with mowing, trimming, and edging.

Best Grass Types for Jacksonville: The best grasses for our near-perfect climate are centipedegrass, Zoysiagrass, and bermudagrass.

Best Time to Plant Grass: Although you can plant grass all year in Florida, the ideal seasons for grass seeds and sod are spring and fall.

Spring Lawn Care Tips for Jacksonville: Mow once a week at a high setting to prevent weeds from taking root, keep pests away, and make sure your lawn stays looking sharp. Water your lawn once or twice a week but adjust accordingly. You don't want dry, patchy grass, but you also don't want an overgrown yard. Another tip? Aerate your lawn before applying fertilizer or other lawn treatments.

Fall Lawn Care Tips for Jacksonville: Though you might think fall is the perfect time to fertilize your lawn, it isn't. Fertilizer is best applied in the grass-growing season. Inconsistent temperatures make it hard to ensure your grass gets just enough water. We recommend switching to watering once a week or once every two weeks to achieve a happy middle ground. Another tip? Keep mowing at a high setting to protect your grass roots from the occasional cold snap.

Common Lawn Pests and Common Winter Lawn Diseases: Lawn pests such as armyworms, southern chinch bugs, mole crickets, sod webworms, and white grubs can attack and destroy your landscape. Three common winter lawn diseases to be on the lookout for in your yard are snow molds (pink and gray), red thread, and dollar spot.
