Yard Pests We Treat
We combine years of experience with cutting-edge techniques to treat the following beetles and yard pests:
Grubs cause significant lawn damage by feeding on grass roots. These beetle larvae create brown patches and weakened turf that’s vulnerable to further damage. Our grub control program will help restore your lawn’s health and appearance.
Post beetles attack wooden elements of your home, fence posts, and deck materials, creating aesthetic and structural concerns. Our post beetle control services will protect your investment and maintain your property’s integrity.
Boxwood beetles target boxwood shrubs, causing defoliation and plant stress. If you’ve invested in beautiful boxwood landscaping, these pests can quickly ruin your hard work. Our boxwood beetle control programs preserve your ornamental plants and keep your landscaping looking its best.
Powder beetles infest stored products and can move from outdoor areas into your pantry. These tiny pests contaminate food supplies and multiply rapidly in favorable conditions. Our powder beetle control strategies stop infestations before they spread through your home.
Carpet beetles damage natural fabrics, carpets, and stored clothing items. While they often start outdoors, they frequently find their way inside, where they can cause expensive damage to your belongings. Our carpet beetle control approach addresses both indoor and outdoor populations.
Flea beetles jump like fleas and create small holes in plant leaves, particularly affecting vegetable gardens and ornamental plants. If left unchecked, these pests can destroy entire plantings. Our flea beetle control methods protect garden investments and keep plants thriving.
Our services extend beyond beetles to include comprehensive yard pest management:
- Ants – We address ant colonies, including carpenter ants. Our treatments will ensure ants can’t damage your wooden structures or create unsightly trails around your property.
- Ticks and Fleas – These pests pose health risks to humans and pets, requiring specialized treatment approaches.
- Spiders – We eliminate spider populations before they become problematic for homeowners.
- Mosquitos – Our mosquito management helps our customers enjoy their outdoor spaces more comfortably.
Our Yard Pest Control Process
We’ve honed our beetle and yard pest control process to be effective and environmentally conscious. Steps include:
Inspection and Identification
Every effective treatment plan starts with proper identification. Our technicians will thoroughly inspect your property to identify specific beetle species and assess the extent of the problem. We look for damage patterns, adult beetles, larvae, and conditions that attract these pests.
Customized Treatment Plan
We’ll develop a treatment plan tailored to your situation, considering factors like the beetle species present, the severity of the infestation, your property layout, and your family’s needs.
Seasonal Defense Program
Beetle activity changes throughout the year, so we offer seasonal programs that address natural cycles. This proactive approach prevents future problems while managing current issues.
Follow-Up and Monitoring
We don’t just treat and leave. Our team schedules follow-up visits to monitor treatment effectiveness and adjust as needed. This ongoing relationship ensures long-term success.
Treatment Methods and Animal Welfare
Our treatment methods prioritize environmental consciousness and animal welfare. We use targeted approaches that focus on beetle breeding areas and feeding zones rather than blanket applications. This precision reduces environmental impact while maintaining effectiveness.
All our methods follow humane removal practices in accordance with state and federal regulations because we believe effective pest management and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
Frequently Asked Questions About Beetle Control
Our experts have answered some of the most frequently asked questions about beetle control below.
Yes. Many yard pests can move indoors, especially during weather changes or when outdoor food sources become scarce. Our comprehensive approach addresses both indoor and outdoor areas.
While some situations may require only one treatment, most beetle problems benefit from follow-up visits. Seasonal defense programs often provide the best long-term results.
Our environmentally conscious approach accounts for the well-being of your family and pets. We use methods that minimize exposure risks and provide clear guidelines for post-treatment activities.
Treatment timelines vary depending on the beetle species and infestation severity. Most homeowners see significant improvement within two to four weeks, with continued progress over the following months.
Look for brown patches in your lawn, increased bird or animal activity in your yard, and visible adult beetles around outdoor lights. Indoors, you might notice small holes in wood or fabric or tiny beetles near windows.
