Lawn Care

Fertilization:

• Granular slow-release fertilizer with micro-nutrients for sustained growth and superior color.
• Controlling nitrogen release is eco-friendly and helps preserve the natural state of our groundwater.

Insect Control:

• Inspection – Our trained technicians will inspect our customers' lawn for damaging insects on every fertilization visit.
• Identify the type of insect causing damage and determine an appropriate treatment. ABC will apply insecticides on a curative basis ONLY. ABC believes that applying insecticides on a preventive basis is not in the best interest of our customers nor the environment.

Weed Control:

• Scheduled pre-emergent weed control is included in our traditional program during spring and fall to prevent the development of certain annual weeds. Broadleaf weeds are treated as needed with every visit.
• Specialized treatments to control perennial grass-type weeds like Dallisgrass and Nutgrass are available as optional services.
• Specialized treatments to control perennial grass-type weeds are available as optional services.

Disease Control:

• Inspection – Our trained technicians will inspect our customers' lawn for turfgrass diseases on every fertilization visit. Common turf diseases are:
• Brown patch: a fungus that is mainly an aesthetic problem.
• It affects primarily the leaves of St. Augustine grass, but doesn't kill the turfgrass itself.
• ABC can apply a fungicide to the affected areas for brown patch control. The fungicide must be applied in two applications spaced 30-45 days apart during the fall season.
• Gray leaf spot on St. Augustine grass or Bermuda grass leaf spot.These diseases are uncommon and do not require preventative control.
• Should our technicians notice a disease on the lawn, then diagnosis and treatment options will be brought to the attention of the customer.

Tree & Shrub Care:

• Comprehensive program consisting of granular time release fertilization and applications to help control insects and disease problems that occur throughout the growing season on ornamental trees and shrubs.

Core Aeration:

• Helps loosen compacted soil
• Allows nutrients, water and air to get to the root zone
