Pest Management


Our Integrated Pest Management program is administered by a state-licensed and certified Pest Control Operator. With the expertise of our Horticulturists, a program will be designed which, instead of seeking to eradicate all pests, prevents the population of those insect types which are destructive, while allowing those considered to be beneficial to survive on non infested turf, shrubs and trees. Landcare's Pest Management Program is a new, environmentally sensitive approach to an old problem.

There are hundreds of plant diseases and pests in Florida. Accurate diagnosis and treatment is essential in preventing long-term costly problems.

Prevention:

Use practices that contribute to turf, plant and tree protection for the long term. These include:

  • Biological controls: Preserve biological diversity.
  • Pesticide rotation: breaks pest life cycles, often improves health and vigor of turf and shrubs.
  • Host plant resistance: Use varieties that are resistant to common pest species.
  • Sanitation: Remove or destroy debris and other sources of pest infestation.
