Turf Tip: Pre-emergent herbicide stops pesky invaders like crabgrass, spurge, and other grassy w**ds before they sprout. Not only do these unwanted guests detract from your yard's beauty, but they also rob your turf of essential nutrients, root/soil s**ce and resources.

IFA’s Crabgrass Preventer + Lawn Food fertilizer is the first step in our specialized Intermountain lawn care program with a pre-emergent herbicide to help keep your lawn lush and w**d-free. In order for fertilizer to be the most effective, be sure to water in thoroughly–at least ½ inch–following application.
