Weed Control and Invasive Plant Control in Victoria – Licensed Herbicide Treatment That Works

Weeds aren’t just ugly—they’re aggressive, persistent, and frustrating. Whether it’s dandelions taking over your lawn, ivy crawling through your garden beds, or invasive buttercup crowding out your grass, one thing is clear: weeds don’t go away without a fight.

At Ascent Yard Care, we offer professional, licensed herbicide treatments to eliminate weeds safely, legally, and permanently across Victoria and surrounding areas. If you’ve tried pulling, mowing, or using store-bought sprays with no luck, it’s time for a solution that actually works.

Why Weed Control Fails Without the Right Tools

Most people treat weeds above the surface—but the problem starts below. Here’s why weeds keep coming back:

• Deep root systems that regenerate after pulling
• Aggressive spread by seeds and rhizomes
• Victoria’s compacted, nutrient-poor soils that favor weeds over grass
• Resistance to off-the-shelf weed sprays

DIY efforts often delay the spread, but they rarely stop it.

The Solution: Licensed Herbicide Application

Ascent Yard Care is one of the few landscaping companies in Victoria fully licensed to apply herbicides. We use targeted, turf-safe, government-approved products—applied by trained professionals under BC’s strict environmental and safety regulations.

We eliminate weeds at the root without harming your lawn, garden, or surrounding vegetation.

How Our Weed Control Service Works

1. Site Assessment

We identify the weed species, extent of infestation, and ideal treatment method for your property and goals.

2. Selective Application

Using spot spraying, stem wicking, or broadcast treatment, we apply the precise amount of herbicide necessary—nothing more.

3. Ongoing Monitoring (Optional)

Some invasive species require multi-stage removal. We provide follow-up visits if needed to ensure complete elimination.

4. Optional Restoration

After weed removal, we can overseed lawns, mulch beds, or replant native species to keep weeds from coming back.
