Pest Control

After all the rain these last few months I am beginning to feel like I have opened up a mosquito hotel in my backyard!  Not only does the pond have "No Vacancy" they are starting to camp out in pooling water and splitting the rent with the sparrows at the birdbath.  In order to prevent the population from increasing further I have turned to Bt pellets (Bacillus thuringiensis), a non-toxic control that is safe for pets & wildlife.  I also learned through my research that running water scares them off, so I have upgraded the pond to contain a waterfall.

Bagworms are once again here but they are early this year.  Bagworms can only be effected by pesticides when thier bag is soft, they are easy to kill and evan though you may notice them on all kinds of trees and bushes evergreen bushes are the only ones they will kill.  Please let us know if you notice any bags.

With the mild winter and very unusual warm weather early on this year bugs are starting to get bad earlier. I have had may calls about ticks and chiggers. If you don’t already know, our turf department has the solution. Call in today and schedule an application for fleas, ticks, chiggers and many more. Starting cost is $59.
