Lawn Care Program
Our comprehensive Lawn Care Program delivers six seasonal treatments tailored to Roanoke's climate. Certified technicians apply precise fertilizers, crabgrass barriers, and weed control while monitoring for insect threats. The program adapts to changing weather conditions across spring, summer, and fall cycles. Each treatment combines granular applications with targeted interventions to maximize lawn density and color while minimizing mowing requirements.
Tree & Shrub Care
Scheduled tree and shrub treatments protect valuable landscape assets through deep root fertilization and pest management. Horticultural oil sprays target insect eggs while specialized treatments control mites and leaf-chewing pests. Certified technicians conduct regular inspections to identify early signs of stress or infestation. This proactive approach maintains plant health and prevents damage from environmental stressors and invasive species common to Southwest Virginia.
Mosquito & Tick Control
Our six-treatment seasonal program offers conventional and organic options for mosquito and tick prevention. Monthly applications from April-September create protective barriers around properties using EPA-registered products. Certified technicians target breeding areas while minimizing environmental impact. The service includes free re-treatments between scheduled visits and focuses on creating safe outdoor spaces for families and pets in Southwest Virginia.
Perimeter Pest Control
Four-season perimeter treatments create chemical barriers around home foundations to block common pests. Targeted applications focus on entry points like windows, doors, and ground-level access points. The program controls ants, spiders, and similar insects without requiring interior access. Treatments use residual materials that maintain effectiveness between quarterly visits while excluding specific pests like termites and rodents.
Core Aeration
Mechanical aeration removes soil cores to reduce compaction and improve root development. The process enhances water infiltration, nutrient absorption, and thatch breakdown. Leaving cores on the lawn adds organic matter as they decompose. Fall aeration creates optimal conditions for overseeding, allowing new grass roots to establish in aerated soil channels for improved lawn density and resilience.
