Ant
Control
Let GRASSROOTS
take care of those pesky ants. We apply a bait type insecticide
which ants carry back to feed the egg laying queen ant. This
reduces the population of ants in your lawn and home. This
application may not be a one-time shot but it will be the
beginning of a more permanent solution. Additional services
can be done at seasonally high-pressure times of Spring and
Fall.
*THIS insecticide
is non-toxic to pets and other animals
Brown
Patch Fungus
Brown patch fungus
can become a quick take over problem on lawns in the summer.
Hot hazy high temperatures and humidity help promote this
bothersome dilemma. The fungus Rhizoctonia solani, which lives
in the soil, thatch and crowns of your grass, causes Dollar
Spot. Upon inspection of your lawn today we noticed a fungus.
The best remedy at this time is to let GRASSROOTS
apply a fungicide to quickly stop the spread of infection
and help your lawn recover.
****If your
grass has been lost due to this condition don’t forget
to schedule an aeration and seeding for the fall****
Dormant
Oil Treatments
Now is the time
for a winter application of horticulture dormant oil for your
trees and shrubs. This service will protect your trees and
shrubs from extreme temperatures and smother insect eggs that
infest over the winter. These eggs will hatch in the spring
and be hungry to eat new leaves. GRASSROOTS is running
a winter special for this service.
Flea
& Tick Control
GRASSROOTS
is now offering flea and tick control applications to help
you eliminate these pesky pets. We can help you by dusting
your lawn with a flea tick powder and you can help by vacuuming
regularly and treating your pets on a regular basis. Together
we can bring down the population of these pesky pets.
Flower
Bed Weed Control
Are your weekends busy? Would you like for your flowerbeds
and mulched areas to be more maintenance free? Let GRASSROOTS
help take care of those annoying weeds. We can kill all existing
weeds and put down a pre-emergent herbicide that will keep
any new weeds from growing and not hurt your precious plantings.
This treatment normally lasts 8 weeks depending on the severity
of your weeks. Usually two treatments per growing are sufficient.
Geese
Problems?
When geese move
in, they devour grasses quickly destroying the turf. To make
matters worse, they leave a minefield of droppings.
GRASSROOTS Now Offers Flight Control, the key to
Geese Management.
Two Levels of
Deterrence:
Anti-feedant (consequence) – Geese experience a strong,
harmless, but very effective gut reaction if they eat treated
turf
Visual Warning (threat) – Geese see the compound in
the ultraviolet light spectrum.
Product Features and Benefits:
- Effective – FlightControl Plus denies key feeding
areas (or key food sources)
- Economical – A cost effective deterrent for large
turf areas
- Virtually Odorless – FlightControl Plus does not have
an offensive odor
- Long-lasting – FlightControl Plus is weatherproof
- Provides outstanding control without harming humans, pets,
wildlife, vegetation or the birds.
Grub
Control
Grub worm damage can now be prevented with our GRASSROOTS
Grub Preventative program. One treatment provides season long
control.
Grub worms are as ugly as the damage they cause. These pests
are so sneaky it is often difficult to even know they are
doing damage until it is too late. Worse yet, they usually
pick the lushest lawns to feast on.
Mole
Control
Does your lawn
look like a subway map? Let GRASSROOTS take care
of those pesky moles that are ruining your grass. Lawn damage
from mole activity and tunneling may take several forms. The
surface tunneling separates the grass roots from the soil.
This causes the soil to become mushy and soft feeling when
stepped on, the separated roots cause yellowing and dyeing
patterns in your lawn. Exposed soil along these tunnel ridges
allow weed seeds to grow. Baiting mole runs can be your first
step in driving these pesky pests out of your lawn. Grub control
applications may also help in this fight.
