Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Council Bluffs

Council Bluffs has that great small-town feel while also being part of a larger metropolitan area. Harsh winters and mild summers can be hard on lawns in our area. LawnStarter finds local pros to help you with a newly established yard or keeping an established property in top shape with trimming, mowing, and edging services.


Here’s what you need to know about lawn care in Council Bluffs.


Most Common Grass Types: The most common grass types are Kentucky bluegrass, fine fescue, perennial ryegrass, tall fescue, bentgrass, and rough bluegrass.


Summer Lawn Care Tips: In the spring, after the ground dries, make sure to pick up any lawn debris. During the hotter months in summer, your lawn will need a few inches of water each week to stay healthy. A weekly or biweekly mowing schedule will help your grass stay green well into fall.


Vegetable Growing Tips: Grow cold-season vegetables early. Consider growing warm-weather vegetables inside. Use mulch and black plastic to warm the soil. Grow nutrient-dense vegetables, avoid planting after July, and add frost protection.


Common Lawn Diseases: The most common lawn diseases in Council Bluffs are leaf spot, red thread, pink patch, anthracnose, brown patch, fairy ring, summer patch, snow mold, rust, and dollar spot.


Common Lawn Pests: Watch out for white grubs, billbugs, armyworms, cutworms, chinch bugs, aphids, and ants.


Other Outdoor Services We Offer: In addition to lawn care, LawnStarter’s pros offer services ranging from patio work to lawn seeding. You name it, we do it.


Call us, click, or download our easy-to-use app to get started. We’ll send you a quote and hook you up with Council Bluffs’ best lawn care pros.

I have been mowing lawns for a while as a child. I love making lawns look nice, and I love the smell of freshly cut grass and the opportunity to be outside in the open. Mowing lawns gives me the opportunity to, hopefully, make the customer happy, and my goal is to be able to have the customer say to themselves, "That is the way I would have done it. My yard looks nice."
