Facts about Weed Control

It is no secret weeds thrive in Tucson and throughout Southern Arizona. Not only can they be unsightly, but weeds can deprive your lawns, gardens and other ornamental plants of the water and nutrition they need. Conquistador Pest and Termite can help you contain the growth and spread of weeds with our Pre-Emergent and Post-Emergent (Spot Treatment) weed applications.

The key to a successful herbicide control program is a two pre-emergence applications and monthly spot treatments. Our Pre-Emergent application stops weeds before they even start. This weed application is sprayed over rock or lawn areas and is absorbed into the soil to stop the seeds of annual weeds from germinating. It is easier and more cost effective to detect and kill weeds early. With just two pre-emergent treatments per year, you can cut down weed growth by 80% over six months. Our treatments are tough on weeds and will keep them from taking root and growing in the first place.

This will fix the problem before it even begins! We recommend monthly inspections and touch up applications to control the new weeds that germinate after our initial application. Post-emergence herbicides are used to kill visible weeds. Some weeds may have started growing, but have not emerged through the soil surface, so subsequent visits and applications will be necessary.

How Does the Monsoon Season Affect Weeds in Tucson?

Monsoon season in Tucson doesn’t just bring welcome rain—it also sparks a burst of weed growth across lawns, gardens, and landscapes. With the fresh moisture, weed seeds that have been lying dormant quickly begin to sprout, leading to new plants popping up just days after the rain stops. These weeds compete with your lawn and ornamental plants for water and nutrients, making weed control especially important during and after monsoon season.

If you’re seeing more weeds after a monsoon, you’re not alone. The truth is, dealing with Tucson weeds can be a year-round challenge, but the post-monsoon surge really shows how persistent they can be. That’s why Conquistador Pest and Termite recommends a two-step herbicide control program; using pre-emergent applications before the weeds have a chance to sprout and post-emergent spot treatments to tackle the ones that manage to break through. Starting early with pre-emergent weed control can reduce new weed growth by up to 80% over six months, saving you time, water, and effort.

Our team also provides monthly inspections and touch-up applications because even after monsoon rains, new weeds can continue to appear throughout the season. With regular attention and the right combination of treatments, you can stay ahead of the weed rush, keeping your property clean, healthy, and looking its best—no matter what the Tucson weather brings.

Don’t let weeds take over after the next monsoon. The Conquistador Way blends proven science and local know-how to stop weeds before they start and eliminate them once they appear.
