I hired Scott's Lawn service to get rid of the weeds. They put out lots of weed killer and pre-emergent. The front lawn looks great! What few weeds there were I hit with round-up, no problem.

The ditch area (which I made it clear was the main reason I hired their service) looks like they didn't touch it. Weeds, weeds, weeds, and more weeds! I am just as responsible for the ditch as I am the front yard. The neighbors are quick to remind folks of that! An ugly ditch destroys the look of the whole property!!!!!

Now what?! The ditch now has more water than ever, since developers changed the water flow. The steep sides of the ditch have weeds, the bottom of the ditch has water. The weeds are already getting tall, and we can't mow because the mower will get stuck in the water and mud at the bottom of the ditch.

This is full hot sun and dry all summer. Should I plant a ground cover. What on earth would survive?

I'll take any and all suggestions! NOT happy!

Thanks Michele
