Services
Lawn Care
Our comprehensive lawn care program includes eight seasonal treatments designed to maintain healthy turf through proper fertilization and weed control. We apply pre-emergent herbicides to prevent crabgrass and other weeds while using targeted treatments for existing broadleaf weeds. Regular applications of balanced fertilizers promote root density and vibrant green color throughout the growing season.
Pest Control
Our quarterly pest control program focuses on perimeter protection through foundation treatments that prevent infestations before they start. We apply protective barriers around homes while treating eaves to deter wasps and hornets. Interior treatments address specific pest issues with scheduled follow-ups to maintain ongoing protection against common household pests.
Aeration Services
Core aeration services improve lawn health by reducing soil compaction and thatch buildup. This process allows better penetration of water, nutrients, and oxygen to grassroots, promoting stronger root development. We recommend annual aeration as part of a comprehensive lawn maintenance program for optimal turf vitality.
Grub Treatment
Targeted grub treatment programs protect lawns from damaging insect infestations. Our preventative applications control white grubs and other turf-damaging insects while maintaining beneficial soil organisms. Treatments are timed with insect life cycles for maximum effectiveness in preserving lawn integrity.
Weed Control
Customized weed control solutions address both pre-emergent and existing broadleaf weeds. We use selective herbicides to eliminate dandelions, clover, and other common weeds while protecting desirable turfgrass. Our integrated approach combines chemical treatments with cultural practices for long-term weed management.

Southern Lawn is a great company. After the initial setup with them, they now text me when it is time for the next treatment and ask when it will be alright to come by. When we had army worms this year, they came the same day I called. Excellent service!

I have used lawn and pest services before; however nothing even to close to their exceptional service. I love how they never come to provide service without texting you and waiting on a response. Their technicians are always prompt, professional and courteous whenever you talk to them. Also whenever you call the office she is always extremely knowledgeable, friendly and always helpful. I don't usually recommend to many companies; however I would make an exception for this outstanding company.

My firm, Legal Action Bureau, Inc., has been in business with Steve and Southern Lawn and Pest, Inc. for a short time now. I can say that our experience has been beyond expectations for a small lawn and pest control business. Their associates are professional, knowledgeable and honest. Steve really knows how to operate a successful business and it has been a pleasure to work with him and his people. I would recommend their top notch services to any resident or business in need!

Me and my wife love Southern Lawn and Pest, Inc. We have been using them for almost two years now with no issues. They have a small town feel to them which is another reason why we chose them. Also, they don't push any additional services on you like some other business do. We will continue to you southern lawn!
