April is here with warmer temperatures, bringing all our springtime pests. We have control programs for all of them.
Flea, Tick, and Mosquito Suppression: Tick suppression starts now. We make monthly visits to treat the property. Applications are done by fogging the perimeter of the property as well as spraying nesting areas. Plant material around the house (patio, deck, pool, swing set wood lines if applicable) will also be treated.
Mosquito suppression also starts now. In addition to the spray program, we now offer In2Care, a new 2-part bait station that controls both mosquito adults and larvae. A scent draws mosquitoes to it, where the larvae are killed when they hatch. It also has an adulticide that they pick up, carry and transfer to other mosquitoes during mating.
Turf: Our seven-step program keeps lawns beautiful and weed-free. Local soil tends to be poor if not treated. Testing allows us to know what is happening underground. Deficiencies in the soil affect proper turf growth and color. Micro-nutrients allow your turf to absorb all the needed components of the fertilizer. Proper pH levels are essential in helping your fertilizer work efficiently. Grass plants thrive within a very small pH range. Lime applications help us adjust the pH in your lawn and utilize the fertilizer to its maximum efficiency. Following turf science will make your lawn the envy of your neighbors.
Tree Care: We have finished deep root feeding and are transitioning to foliar applications which include insect and disease control. This helps combat insects such as scales, mites, aphids, mealybugs, lacebugs, caterpillars and more. These insects are becoming active now. Keep these pests from destroying your plantings.
