Here is a small (and growing) collection of weeds that we encounter every year, especially in the Foothills of El Dorado County. While some of them may be more challenging than others, we have the knowledge and experience to eradicate them from your property while preserving the natural beauty.
Unless specifically noted, all images on this page were created by, and owned by, El Dorado Weed Control. Thanks to University of California Integrated Pest Management Program for much of the information about each species.
