Our Fertilization Lawn Care Program
A healthy lawn begins with healthy plants, and there’s no better way to take care of a property than with our lawn care program. We apply fertilizer for optimum nutrient absorption at the time of year that is best for the Indianapolis area, so you don’t have to worry about the timing. Our lawn fertilization program keeps your lawn looking fresher and greener all season long, even when the summers turn hot and dry. When the grass is well-fed, it also develops deeper roots, nurturing your grass and giving it that deep green color that you’ve been wanting.
Of course, the nutrients from a yard fertilizer service should go to your grass, not the weeds. Weeds can not only take over a lawn but also spread to other parts of the yard, like flowerbeds and gardens, crowding out the plants you want and making everything look untidy. That’s why we deep-six the weeds on your lawn. Our weed control service targets your yard from the roots up, preventing weed growth, and delivering nutrient-rich fertilizer throughout the turf.
At Blue Duck, our lawn fertilization and weed control service includes:
Pre-emergent applications that prevent the germination of weed seeds.
Weed control service that stops weed growth and kills weed plants.
Granular fertilization that delivers nutrition to the turf slowly over time.
Products that are pet-safe and kid-safe, when guidelines are followed.

We take the time to do each job as thoroughly and carefully as we can.
Grub & Outdoor Pest Control
Central Indiana has been historically plagued with infestations of grubs and other outdoor pests. If these annoying vermin remain untreated, they can quickly take over and devastate a beautiful property. To keep your grass safe, nip pest infestations in the bud. Renovating a lawn is a much larger investment than preventing grubs and pests from infiltrating your lawn. Depending on the type of outdoor pest attacking your property, we utilize the following treatments:
Grub control treatments (included in round 3 of your lawn fertilizer treatments, billable at normal application rate)
Aeration for a Healthy Lawn
If your lawn seems to be susceptible to disease and pests year after year, annual applications of insecticides and fungicides will temporarily fix your unhealthy lawn. The true solution lies in much-needed lawn aeration and overseeding. Aeration allows moisture, air, and nutrients to reach the roots of the grass. Overseeding, combined with aeration, breaks up compacted soil, prevents thick thatch, and supports a strong root system in your lawn.
Three Keys To A Beautiful Lawn
AERATION IS THE KEY TO A HEALTHY LAWN
In the fall, our double pass core aeration relieves compaction and promotes deeper rooting. Deep roots allow grass to maintain its health longer in stressful times of the season, such as summer heat and drought. This should be done yearly in the fall.
FERTILIZATION & WEED CONTROL UNLOCKS YOUR LAWNS TRUE STRENGTH
Our fertilization is key to keeping the lawn well fed and promotes strength against stresses and diseases. Our weed control reduces weeds from taking up space and creating bare areas in the lawn. These bare areas would be prime real estate for grassy weeds the following summer. This should be done each season.
OVERSEEDING LOCKS IN A THICK LAWN
A thick lawn naturally repels weeds by filling in and reducing the area that weeds find desirable, lessening the amount of chemical weed control needed throughout the season. The new seed germinates and replaces grass plants that may have expired due to stress and disease the year before, keeping the lawn young and healthy. This should be done yearly at the same time as the aeration.
The Homeowner Holds The Key To A Healthy Lawn
PROPER MOWING IS KEY TO YOUR SUCCESS
During the season, your mowing height should be adjusted. Mowing at 3 to 3½ inches in spring and fall, and mowing at 4 inches or more in the summer helps relieve stress, conserve moisture and keeps the lawn cooler. This all promotes deeper rooting and an overall healthier lawn. Remember to cut often enough that you are only removing the top ⅓ of the blade each time you cut.
WATERING UNLOCKS THE POTENTIAL
Watering is the most important thing a homeowner can do to unlock the true potential of their lawn. Watering early in the day 2 to 3 times a week, with 1 to 2 inches of total watering per week allows the lawn to access nutrients, create food through photosynthesis, and keep itself cooler through evaporation.
A HEALTHY LAWN OPENS THE DOOR TO ENJOYMENT
By implementing these key steps and sticking to the plan, you can expect to have a beautiful, healthy lawn in 2 to 3 seasons. Creating and maintaining an outdoor area that your family will love to spend time in, creating lasting memories for years to come.
