When everything is looking nice and green, and everything is almost perfect in your lawn and landscaping areas around your home, do you notice unsightly weeds continually popping up in your mulched areas? Most Non-selective herbicides like Roundup will just kill what is there but does not take care of the hidden seeds that can germinate all season long.
This is where Snapshot pre-emergent comes in! Snapshot is an excellent weed preventer that keeps your mulched areas free from weeds for up to 6 months giving you peace of mind and keeping your landscaped areas beautiful.
Like many pre-emergents, Snapshot works but preventing weed seed from developing and growing. For best results, apply Snapshot in the spring and in the fall to keep year-long control on your landscape beds. Snapshot will not kill any weeds existing. If you do have existing weeds, make sure to spray them out with a non-selective herbicide at the time of applying Snapshot.
