Insects tend to decline over winter when it gets below 50 degrees. In areas where winters tend to be light, with some days reaching 50 degrees, insects will “wake up” to aggressively search for food. Without pest control, you can have a spike in insects that are looking for a new/warm place to live. In short – our winters are not cold enough to eliminate insects, so they will overwinter where it is warm – in your home. This is why we offer ongoing programs to keep homes protected year-round.
Light infestations shouldn't pose any risk of illness. When entering the moderate to heavy infestation stage, pests can cause asthma, breathing issues or salmonella. It is best to call a pest control professional when you first start seeing insects or rodents.
There are many factors that may cause a pest issue including, but not limited to:

Grub worms are the larva of the Japanese beetle, and both are pests to your lawn and landscaping. Grub worms feed on the root system of your lawn which causes severe stress and possible irreversible damage.
Lime is applied to your lawn to help improve the condition of your soil. Most soils around this area tend to be acidic, and this treatment will help reduce the acids in your soil and make the PH more alkaline, ultimately allowing more nutrient uptake in your lawn. Magnesium and calcium, two necessary micro nutrients for your lawn, are also included in this application.
Also called slit seeding, this is best for bare or very thin areas in lawn. This process involves forcing seed just below the surface of the soil with precise equipment to ensure best seed to soil contact.
Insects frequently feed on trees and shrubs. They can cause unsightly damage and sometimes even kill the plant. Frequent ornamental pests include but are not limited to: aphids, Japanese beetle, bagworms, spider mites, scale, etc. We use specific chemicals labeled for ornamental plants. This service is available as a preventative or curative application(s).
Aeration is the process of removing "cores" from the lawn, allowing for more air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the root zone. This encourages healthier growth for any lawn. We then over seed the lawn. Aeration and over seeding is suggested for lawns that are relatively healthy. If there are large thin and bare areas power seeding would be suggested for those areas.
We will send an experienced technician to evaluate the lawn and determine if a kill out is necessary. If so, we will kill areas desired and quote cost to power seed those areas.
