Insect Control and Management

There are several turf damaging insects common to lawn in our area.

These unwelcome visitors feed on your lawn in one way or another, and may cause a significant amount of damage in the process, if left unchecked.

White Grubs are the insect that is of primary concern for most homeowners. these troublesome insects work to destroy your turf by feeding on the root system of your grass. A pro-active approach to their control appears to work the best. The key to effective control of these pests is proper inspection, material selection and correct timing of application. The timing for effective grub control ranges from Early June to Late October depending on the product selected. Merit, Mach, 2, and Dylox are the most commonly used materials.

Even in a very healthy lawn some insects may appear from time to time. The Natural Care Plus approach to pest management calls for the selective use of control materials to keep your lawn as healthy and free of damaging pests as possible.
