Nothing causes as much damage in a short span of time as an insect infestation. For as short as their lives are, many insects can destroy your lawn, sneak inside your home, and even risk the health of your loved ones. Lawns that are thin, dry, or overrun with weeds are especially susceptible to insect infestation.
Don’t let your property become infested with insects. We provide expert lawn pest control and insect control to prevent pests like mosquitos, ticks, ants, and centipedes from invading your yard and your home. We identify the types of insects you’re struggling with and the unique needs of your property in order to customize the ideal insect control program for you.
Control Your Lawn’s Health
Insects are just a part of life. It’s only natural to see them around your property. However, there should be a good balance between insects, their predators, and the food supply in your lawn. When that balance is upset, insects turn from a normal occurrence to a problem that can cause significant damage to your property. Once the damage is done, it’s a lot harder to get your lawn back to being green and healthy than it would be to take actionable steps for insect control in the first place.
It’s easy to see when a lawn is being overrun by insects and critters. For example, if you notice any brown patches that don’t turn green in the spring this is a pretty good indicator that you may have grubs or other lawn insects feeding on your lawn. These insects live just below the surface and can wreak havoc on your lawn. They look for anything in their path as food. This path leads them to feeding on grass roots that can cause brown patches in your lawn.
Identification For Effective Insect Control
In order to provide effective insect control, proper identification of the types of insects you’re struggling with is key. Certain conditions on your property can make you more likely to struggle with one type of insect over another. Depending on the insect, insect control measures depend on certain points in their life cycle.
We’ll look at:
- The type(s) of insects causing damage to your lawn
- The level of infestation you’re dealing with
- The life cycle of said insect(s)
Once we have this information, we’ll be able to build your custom insect control program. Our techniques minimize risk to human health and the environment and are safely applied by experienced professionals.
Common Insects Utahns Struggle With
Everyone knows about mosquitos in the summertime – they ruin otherwise lovely summer evenings attempted to be spent outdoors. While active at night, during the day, mosquitoes find shelter in your lawn and landscaping. While getting rid of mosquitoes entirely is an impossible goal (you’d have better luck finding a needle in a haystack!), our insect control measures keep them to a more manageable level.
Other common insects Utahns struggle with include spiders, earwigs, lawn grubs, ants, and more. Depending on the insect, they may make their home in your soil, your trees, under lawn debris, in cracks around your home’s exterior, and elsewhere. We’ll locate where the insects are and target them for treatment.
Benefits of Insect Control
There are many benefits of obtaining professional insect control services for your Northern Utah home. The top three are as follows:
- Maintains healthy yard. With insects under control, you don’t have to worry about your carefully cultivated lawn being ruined.
- Prevents brown patches. There are several different causes of brown patches, but insects are one of them. Addressing your insect problem may be just what you need to get rid of those brown patches.
- Keeps out other unwanted insects. Very few people like having insects all around. Insect control measures keep the insects to a natural level, so you’re more likely to see beautiful butterflies than vicious mosquitoes.
Exterior pests are part of life, but they don’t have to be part of yours. At Green Castle Lawn Care we spray the exterior foundation of your home to prevent unwanted insects from getting into your house.
