Seasonal To Do Lists


These lists will help with your seasonal lawn and garden needs.  Plus we’ll suggest products to keep on hand for potential gardening issues that might arise.  It’s always good to be prepared and address the problem as soon as possible.

Weed Control

  • Apply Barricade or Dimension to help prevent weeds over the next three months.

Insect Control

  • Apply Amdro or Bengal Ultra Dust for Ant control.

  • Sod Webworms:  Start treatments with a spray once a week for three weeks, then use a granule for longer-term control.  Bifenthrin, BT, and Cyhalothrins are all good active ingredients for caterpillar control.

Fungal Control

  • Apply PCNB for Brown Patch treatment.  Bonide Infuse and BioAdvanced Fungal Control can be used to prevent.  Keep in mind, though, that in the summer areas that look like brown patch could be sod webworm damage, so double-check the damage.

  • Vegetables:  Eggplant, Peppers, Summer Squash, Southern Peas, Okra.
