A cypress-lined canal cleared and opened back up by TIMCO in the Louisiana Bayou Region

Recreational land
management in Thibodaux.

You bought the 60 acres. Now somebody has to bush-hog it, spray it, clear the trees, torch the brush, and open the canal back up so it actually drains. That's the work TIMCO does for recreational landowners across the Bayou Region — by boat or on foot, boots and chainsaws.

Reclaim it, then keep it open.

A lot of rural acreage starts with a heavy reclaim — clearing land that's grown over for years — and moves to ongoing care: the cutting and spraying that keeps fields open, the prescribed burns that reset the cycle, and the drainage and tree work that prevents next year's problems.

  • Heavy clearing & land reclamation
  • Canal, bayou & right-of-way clearing
  • Ditch & culvert drainage cleanup
  • Bush-hogging & field cutting
  • Chemical application (weed kill, fence lines, food plots)
  • Brush, scrub & small tree clearing
  • Selective tree work & deadfall removal
  • Prescribed brush burns & pile burns
  • Access road grading & food plot prep

Why hunters and landowners use us.

Hunter's perspective

Tim hunts and works rural ground himself — he gets why your land matters. We manage it like somebody who actually uses recreational land, not just a vendor running a mower.

Prescribed burns, handled safely

Pile burns and controlled brush burns on appropriate days, with the right equipment on site. Resets pasture and reduces wildfire load without the headache of doing it yourself.

Recurring or one-time

Set us up for a routine season schedule, or call us in for the big once-a-year reset. Either way we know what your land looked like last visit.

Right equipment for rural

Bobcat, zero-turn, trailers, sprayer, and the trucks to get them onto remote ground. We don't show up undersized for the job.

Canals, bayous & right-of-ways

Opening up canals, bayous, servitudes, and right-of-ways that grew over and stopped draining is work Tim takes pride in. We pull every bit of debris — by boat or on foot, boots and chainsaws — until a ditch that was unnavigable runs patent and drains again.

Recreational land management, answered.

When is the best time to clear and bush-hog recreational land in South Louisiana?
Late fall through early spring is usually the window for the heaviest work. Cooler, drier months firm up the ground so equipment can reach back acreage without tearing it up, growth has died back so land clearing and bush hogging go faster, and it lines up ahead of hunting season. That said, the Bayou Region stays green most of the year, so ongoing cutting and spraying happen right through the warm months too. The real answer depends on how wet your ground is and how grown-over it has gotten — call us for a free walkthrough and we will tell you the best time for your specific tract.
Can you reach land that only has boat or limited access?
Often, yes. A lot of recreational and hunting ground across Lafourche, Terrebonne, and Assumption parishes sits behind a canal, a servitude, or a stretch with no real road, and reclaiming canals, bayous, and right-of-ways is work TIMCO takes pride in — by boat or on foot, boots and chainsaws. Access is the biggest factor in what a job takes, so the honest step is a walkthrough: send us the location and how you currently get to it, and we will tell you what is workable before quoting anything.
What is the difference between bush hogging and forestry mulching?
Bush hogging cuts down grass, weeds, and light brush with a rotary mower to keep open ground open, and it is the right tool for fields, food plots, and turn-rows. Forestry mulching grinds heavier brush, saplings, and small trees into mulch that stays on the ground as ground cover, so it is what you want when acreage has grown over into thick scrub and you need to reclaim it. Many overgrown tracts need heavier clearing first, then bush hogging to maintain. On a walkthrough we will tell you which your land actually needs so you are not paying for more machine than the job calls for.
How much does it cost to clear recreational acreage per acre?
It depends on the acreage, how thick the brush and trees are, how the land drains, and how easy it is to get equipment in — a clean field mows for far less than dense, wet, boat-access scrub. Because those variables swing the number so much, we do not quote sight-unseen. Call us for a free estimate and Tim will walk the land, then put an honest number on a one-time reclaim, a seasonal plan, or both.
