Sunshine Coast weed identification guide
The Sunshine Coast's warm, humid climate creates the perfect conditions for weeds to thrive in lawns, gardens, fence lines, driveways and anywhere on your acreage properties. Some are a minor nuisance, others are invasive and destructive if left unchecked.
What is this weed and how do we get rid of it?
At Greenstreet, we identify and treat weeds across all property types, from residential lawns and garden beds to rural and acreage blocks. Whether you need a selective treatment that targets the weed and leaves your lawn healthy and weed free, or a non selective knockdown for overgrown areas, we've got the right solution.
Treating weeds in the lawn
Weeds in the lawn are best dealt with by a treatment matched to the weed and the grass. See customised lawn treatments, from $150 plus GST, or weed control for garden beds, paths and fence lines, from $60 plus GST.
Add a hedge trim or green waste removal to any visit. Tick the box on the quote form and it is done on the same visit.
