Services
Fertilization
Our fertilization program delivers essential nutrients through natural, slow-release granular fertilizer. Five seasonal treatments strengthen root systems and promote healthy growth by aligning applications with local climate patterns. Separate weed control applications reduce chemical use while maintaining effective broadleaf weed management.
Grub Preventative
Targeted granular treatments protect lawns from destructive grubs using environmentally safe products. Applications around July 4th target Japanese beetles and other scarab larvae before they damage root systems. Guaranteed results include free reseeding if breakthrough occurs despite our 10-year perfect record.
Aeration
Core aeration breaks up soil compaction to improve air, water, and nutrient penetration. Recommended annually for sodded lawns and every 3-5 years for seeded lawns, this service promotes deeper root growth. Fall applications help lawns recover from summer stress more effectively.
Mosquito Control
Mosquito Guard treatments create protective barriers lasting up to 21 days using backpack misters for complete coverage. Six seasonal applications from Memorial Day to Labor Day target mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas while avoiding pollinator habitats. Safe for families and pets after 30-minute drying period.
Seeding & Repair
Custom seeding programs repair drought damage, equipment removal scars, or new property turf deficiencies. High-quality 99% pure grass seed combined with professional installation techniques ensures successful establishment. Includes thatch removal, seed blanket application, and germination monitoring.
Questions
Are your products safe for pets and children?
Yes. Our natural granular fertilizer and plant-based weed control separate applications ensure safety. Pets and children can return outdoors 30 minutes after mosquito treatments dry.
How do your treatments differ from competitors?
We apply fertilizer and weed control separately to reduce chemical use by 30-40%. Our slow-release fertilizer feeds lawns over 4-5 weeks compared to conventional quick-release formulas.
Are your technicians licensed?
All technicians hold Illinois Department of Agriculture licenses for lawn pesticide application, ensuring proper training and regulatory compliance for every service performed.
What happens if it rains after treatment?
Surfactants make weed control rain-fast within 10 minutes. Mosquito treatments dry in 3 minutes for immediate protection. Grub preventative remains effective even without irrigation.
Do you guarantee your services?
Yes. Our 10-year perfect record with grub prevention includes free reseeding if breakthrough occurs. Lawn repair services guarantee professional execution using premium materials.
When are treatments applied?
Fertilization starts in April when turf actively grows. Grub preventative applies around July 4th. Aeration occurs spring/fall. Mosquito treatments run Memorial Day to Labor Day with event-specific options.
