Vegetation Management

Lentzcaping USD provides a wide range of intergraded vegetation management services to utility, state, municipal and corporate customers. Our services encompass tree and shrub maintenance and removal, forestry and brush mowing, hydro-seeding, and herbicide applications.

Forestry Mowing

Lentzcaping offers a cost effective and environmentally conscious way of controlling and removing unwanted trees, brush, and vegetation with our Forestry mowing service. As opposed to land clearing by bulldozing, forestry mowers generate mulch rich in nutrients. Mowing eliminates the need to remove large amounts of debris left over from excavation. Forestry mowing does not disturb the roots of larger trees, but instead aids in runoff and erosion prevention. Our service saves time by cutting out the steps of hand cutting, stacking, and removing refuse. A forestry mower can do all of this is one step. Herbicide applications can be applied after mowing is completed to prevent regrowth.

Herbicide Vegetation Management

When vegetation interferes with the regeneration of forests, and dominates roadsides and jobsites, Lentzcaping is licensed to provide herbicide control of vegetation. An experienced technician can use herbicides to target varieties of unwanted grasses, weeds and trees whereby keeping the surrounding wanted vegetation safe.

Hydro-seeding

A planting process using a seed and mulch slurry that is a soil stabilizer sprayed on prepared grounds. By re-establishing cover on exposed ground, Hydro-seeding helps prevent soil erosion on hillsides and sloped areas. This type of planting is also useful for fast planting over large areas.

Industrial Weed Control

Lentzcaping Vegetation Management services can control overgrown areas virtually anywhere. To maintain visibility, site security and to prevent fires and for structural integrity, we can customize a plan to aggressively control weeds and overgrowth.

Stump Grinding

After the tree removal process the leftover stumps can be very difficult to extract, and if the tree is deciduous there is a chance it will grow back. We uproot the remaining pieces of the tree or stump, which is then broken down for debris removal.
