Weeds are a nuisance, stealing vital nutrients from your lawn and dragging down its curb appeal. Unfortunately, they don't stop in the fall here in Oklahoma, so you'll want to utilize both pre- and post-emergent weed control treatments. Pre-emergents will help you get ahead of winter weeds before they cause problems by creating a barrier that prevents them from sprouting through the soil. Meanwhile, post-emergents will eliminate any existing weeds on your lawn to ensure it gets everything it needs before dormancy without any competition. With one pre-emergent treatment and two post-emergent applications in the fall, you can get the best results and control pesky weeds at both ends of their growth cycle.

Pre-emergent weed control treatments in the fall will help prevent winter weeds.

If you want to get ahead of winter weeds before they can cause problems for your lawn, look no further than pre-emergent weed control treatments! Applying pre-emergents in the fall will create a protective barrier in the soil that prevents newly germinated weed seeds from breaking through the surface, blocking them from reaching the resources they need to grow any further. These treatments are highly effective at preventing winter weeds, saving you from dealing with them and your lawn from competing for the nutrients it needs to prepare for dormancy!

Post-emergent weed control in the fall will eliminate existing weeds on your lawn before dormancy.

When there are existing weeds on your lawn in the fall, they steal valuable nourishment and leave it ill-prepared for winter dormancy. Fortunately, that's where post-emergent weed control treatments come in! These herbicides target weeds that have already surfaced, as they're applied directly onto the growth, where they'll then seep into the soil and kill it at its roots. By eliminating these pesky plants, you can ensure your grass transitions into the winter season in great shape.

Utilize Both Pre- & Post-Emergent Weed Control in the Fall for the Best Results

For the best results, you should utilize both pre- and post-emergent weed control treatments during the fall. When you do, you can cover both ends of the weed growth cycle; pre-emergents will drastically reduce how many sprout on your lawn, making it easier to control the existing population with post-emergents. One pre-emergent application in the fall is enough to control winter weeds, and you'll want to apply two post-emergents during this season to stay on top of any existing growth. Not only will using both treatments help your lawn stay weed-free before dormancy, but they'll also aid in minimizing how many pop up in the spring!

Some common weeds in Oklahoma include dallisgrass, poa annua, nutsedge, chickweed, and dandelions.
