Why We’re Different
If you’re looking for premium, long-lasting weed prevention, our fall pre-emergent program stands apart. At America’s Best Lawncare, we prioritize results, timing, and product quality — even when it costs us more.
Our fall pre-emergent of choice is Specticle® FLO, an advanced weed prevention solution designed to deliver extended control with fewer applications. This professional-grade product allows us to provide stronger, longer-lasting weed prevention compared to standard pre-emergents.
Applied Strategically In The Fall
Longer Residual Protection
Broad-Spectrum Weed Control
Safe For Warm-Season Turf
Specticle® FLO is approved for use on common warm-season turfgrasses including Bermuda, Zoysia, Centipede, St. Augustine, Buffalograss, and Bahiagrass, and is compatible with many liquid fertilizers and other lawn treatments.
Clean, Low-Impact Application
This product applies cleanly without staining and produces no noticeable odor during application, making it an excellent choice for residential lawns.
Resistance Management
Specticle® FLO helps control weeds that have developed resistance to other herbicides, providing an additional layer of long-term protection.
Quality Over Cost
Specticle® FLO is significantly more expensive than many traditional pre-emergents. We choose it because it performs better — not because it’s cheaper. Our focus is on delivering superior results and long-term lawn health, even when it means higher product costs for our company.
Specticle® FLO – Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Makes Specticle® FLO Different From Other Pre-Emergents?
Specticle® FLO provides significantly longer residual weed control than many traditional pre-emergents. While common products typically offer 3–6 months of control, Specticle® FLO can provide up to 8 months of protection when applied properly, helping keep lawns cleaner well into the next growing season.
Q: What Types Of Weeds Does Specticle® FLO Prevent?
Specticle® FLO delivers broad-spectrum control of more than 60 grassy and broadleaf weeds. It provides extended prevention of annual bluegrass (Poa annua) and pre-emergent and early post-emergent control of crabgrass, along with many other common seasonal weeds.
Q: Is Specticle® FLO Safe For My Grass?
Yes. Specticle® FLO is approved for use on warm-season turfgrasses commonly found in Texas, including Bermuda, St. Augustine, Zoysia, Centipede, Buffalograss, and Bahiagrass. When applied correctly, it helps reduce weed competition without harming healthy turf.
Q: Why Is Specticle® FLO Applied In The Fall?
Fall application allows Specticle® FLO to establish a protective barrier in the soil before cool-season weeds begin to germinate. This timing is critical for long-term weed prevention and helps reduce weed pressure through winter and into spring.
Q: Why Don’t All Lawn Care Companies Use Specticle® FLO?
Specticle® FLO is a premium product with a significantly higher cost than many standard pre-emergents. Some companies choose less expensive options, but we prioritize performance and long-term results over cost savings.
Choosing the right product — and applying it at the right time — makes a measurable difference in long-term weed prevention.
