Pest Control Solutions

Discover the advantages of Systemic Insect Control, a cutting-edge approach to pest management. This method involves water-soluble liquid pesticides absorbed by plants, distributing protection throughout their tissues. While highly effective, it's crucial to note that these pesticides can be washed off by rain or irrigation, posing a risk to neighboring water sources.  

Our approach involves applying pesticides to the soil beneath the plant, allowing them to be transported to the rest of the plant through its roots. This method is particularly effective against pests like scales, which are protected by their wax coating and shells from traditional insecticides. Systemic pesticides reach these pests during feeding, providing a targeted and efficient solution. This targeted approach minimizes exposure to people, pets, and wildlife, ensuring a safe and efficient solution to pest problems in your landscape. 

If you notice sticky dew on your car or patio furniture during hot summer months, your trees might be facing an aphid infestation. Aphids primarily target Roses but can affect various plants and trees. Signs of an aphid problem include stressed and unhealthy-looking trees, with customers often complaining about the sticky excretion known as honeydew produced by aphids. This honeydew can attract ants, which may protect aphids from predators or move them to new plants. If you observe these signs, it's advisable to seek professional intervention.
