Go Green’s Healthy Lawn Care Plan
Each of our plans begins with a lawn evaluation by one of our certified turf managers. We evaluate your specific issues and develop a lawn care plan for your needs. Our lawn care programs ensure that your lawn will have our attention year-round. It includes both preventative and post-emergent weed control applications, timed so that your lawn receives the utmost attention from each application.
Our Healthy Lawn Care Plan also includes synthetic and organic fertilizer applications, timed to deliver the correct amount of nutrients to your lawn throughout the season.

BENEFICIAL ADD-ON SERVICES
Annual Lawn Aeration
Recommended for every lawn. Aeration is one of the most important cultural practices in turf management. Louisville’s soils are predominately clay and compact very easily. This leads to weak root growth, drainage issues, and ultimately poor turf quality. Aeration relieves compaction by pulling cores out of the soil which allows oxygen and water to reach the roots of your turf. Performed in spring or fall.
Lawn Disease & Pest Control
Disease Control
A 2 application program that prevents and controls common turfgrass diseases for the Louisville area. Early summer and mid-summer application will treat for Brown Patch, Red Thread, and Dollar Spot
Flea and Tick Treatment
Controls flea, ticks, and ants throughout the lawn. Treatment will be applied in early to mid-summer. Recommended for dog owners or property owners near wooded areas.
Mosquito Control
We offer both One-Time Mosquito Spraying and full-season protection, via our Seasonal Mosquito Control Program. For more information, please visit our Mosquito Control Service page.
Grub Control
Midsummer applications kill and prevent white grubworms that damage the roots of turfgrass. Recommended only for bluegrass lawns or known activity of grubs or Japanese Beetles in previous years. Requires an evaluation before application.
Difficult Weeds
Wild Violet and Ground Ivy Control
Wild violet is a perennial heart-shaped leaf weed that spreads throughout the lawn. It has a purple flower in the spring and fall. Very difficult to control if there are heavy infestations. Requires special treatment in spring or fall to control.
