Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Monterey
Montereyβs coastal climate shapes the landscape. Our moderate temperatures and foggy mornings present unique challenges for lawn care. But LawnStarter is here to ensure your lawn thrives with our customized services.
From precise mowing to detailed trimming and edging, our pros have your lawn care needs covered. Enjoy your time at the Monterey Bay Aquarium or stroll down Cannery Row while we take care of your green space.
Oh, and if you have questions about Californiaβs Green Lawn Care Law, weβve got you covered. As our Green Lawn Care Law FAQ notes, if youβre mowing with gas-powered mowers, blowers, edgers, youβll need to replace them with battery-powered ones eventually.
Let LawnStarterβs local lawn care pros care for your yard, and donβt worry if you have the right equipment. Our pros are your neighbors. We know how to keep Golden State lawns green and lush.
Hereβs what lawn care looks like in Monterey:
Best Grass Types for Monterey
Montereyβs mild winters and dry summers make it an ideal location for both cool-season and warm-season grasses to thrive. Our experts recommend:
- Tall Fescue: Durable and adaptable, this grass is great for cooler months, offering a robust law in lower temperatures.
- Kentucky Bluegrass: Known for its beautiful appearance and cold tolerance, this cool-season grass is ideal for Monterey's climate.
- Perennial Ryegrass: With its quick germination and fine texture, this grass is a cool-season favorite, providing a lush lawn swiftly.
- Bermudagrass: Thriving in sunny conditions and withstanding heavy foot traffic, this warm-season variety is perfect for active summer lawns.
How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow weekly, ideally when your grass is about one-third taller than its optimal height.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Monterey
Monterey's climate encourages certain lawn pests and diseases, which can damage the health and appearance of your lawn. Watch out for:
- Grubs: These larvae feed on grass roots, causing yellow patches.
- Brown Patch: A fungal disease, it creates circular brown spots.
- Sod Webworms: These caterpillars chew grass blades, leading to thinning.
Other Outdoor Services We Offer
Instead of spending your weekends battling lawn pests, why not explore the historic Carmel Mission? Leave the hard work to us. Our pros offer extensive landscape services including:
- Irrigation Systems: Our pros offer expert installation and irrigation maintenance, ensuring efficient water distribution for your lawn's health.
- Seasonal Maintenance: Our prosβ comprehensive care services include leaf removal, aeration, mulching, and season-specific treatments to keep your lawn thriving year-round.
- Landscape Design: Specializing in creating functional outdoor spaces, our pros incorporate elements like native plant gardens, water features, and custom hardscapes to transform your yard.
