Underground utility markers play an indispensable role in indicating the presence of buried utilities, safeguarding both public safety and the environment. These markers, varying in types and colors, serve as visual guides that inform and protect.
Overgrown vegetation and aggressive weeds are more than just an eyesore to the public. Not only do they impose a threat to our ecosystems, but they can also lead to serious hazards in right-of-ways maintained including railways, roadsides, powerlines, pipelines, and parks. As a contracted professional, it’s vital to understand how to best control these issues and when to take preventive versus corrective actions. These control methods will vary from the time of year to what and where you’ve been hired to control vegetation.
While trees are a common and appealing aspect to a beautifully landscaped lawn or a public park, the general public rarely considers the negative impacts they can have. For example, it is essential to maintain power line clearances in rights-of-ways to prevent outages, fires, and to make a safe place for workers to maintain the lines. And sometimes, if the trees are an invasive species, they need to be removed to protect the natural ecosystem.
In the world of right-of-way weed control, the timing of your herbicide application can be the difference between a successful eradication of unwanted plants and a wasted and ineffective treatment.
Before the production of our dos PISTOLOS sprayer, the industry standard for right-of-way herbicide application was the standard “roll-over” sprayer. We started with an idea to replace this product and craft a simpler, more effective sprayer. Kenny Crewnshaw began to apply his 40 years of application experience to develop the dos PISTOLOS double-barreled sprayer, which is the only two triggered, two outlet sprayer on the market.

Weeds, much like cultivated plants, undergo distinct growth stages in their lifecycle. Identifying and targeting these specific growth stages can significantly impact the success of herbicide application.
