Here at Pestology, we do a lot for local homeowners. Let’s talk a little bit about the basics, and you can think about what makes sense for your property. 

Lawn Fertilization

Lawn fertilization is the process of applying nutrients to a lawn in order to promote healthy growth and maintain a lush, green appearance. Lawns need a balanced combination of nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, in order to thrive. These nutrients can be obtained through the use of fertilizers, which come in a variety of forms, including granular, liquid, and slow-release.

Weed Control

Lawn weed control is the process of preventing or eliminating weeds from a lawn. Weeds are plants that grow where they are not wanted, and they can compete with grass for nutrients and water. There are several methods for controlling weeds in a lawn, including the use of herbicides, hand-weeding, and mulching. We can help with all of this to get your lawn looking great!

Lawn Pest Control

Lawn pest or insect control involves preventing or eliminating insects that can damage a lawn or pose a threat to human health. Some common lawn insects include grubs, crickets and some kinds of ants. Insect control measures can include the use of pesticides, as well as natural methods.

Fungus Control

Lawn fungus control involves preventing or eliminating fungi that can cause diseases in a lawn. Fungal diseases can cause a variety of symptoms, including discolored patches, thinning grass, and wilting. Fungal diseases can be difficult to control, but measures such as the use of fungicides, proper watering and fertilization, and maintaining a healthy lawn through regular mowing and aeration can help prevent their development.

Wildlife and Your Lawn

In addition to these traditional lawn care practices, it’s also important to consider the impact of birds and rodents on a lawn. Birds can cause damage to a lawn by digging for insects or by dropping seeds that can grow into weeds. Rodents, such as moles and voles, can also cause damage by digging tunnels through the lawn. To prevent damage from birds and rodents, you can use bird netting, fencing, or repellents to discourage them from entering your yard. We can advise on the best ways to keep birds and rodents out!Talk to Pestology about how to get the best, nicest looking lawn in the NE Florida area.
