- AntsAny crawling insects are killed on contact. Ants, mites, pillbugs and earwigs are controlled for up to sixty days. Three to four bi-monthly sprays are recommended for season-long control in Ohio.
- Spiders
- Termites
- FleasFleas and ticks are two simple and easy insects to control and life cycles are a consideration with these seasonal pests. Cultural controls, along with communication with your veterinarian, will help alleviate these pests. A simple liquid lawn or tree application during the active pest season (summer) will control flea and tick populations. Feel free to speak with your lawn care, tree and shrub or pest control professional about these recurring pests.
- Bees
- Wasps
- Ticks
- Earwigs
- Mosquitoes
- BeetlesGrubs are the most well-known and easily identified turf insects. They are the larva stage of the Japanese and other adult beetles that feed on your landscape plants during the spring and summer. After feeding, the beetle lays its eggs in the warm, moist soil. After the eggs hatch, the grubs start feeding on all organic material in front of them. Turfgrass is easily killed by grubs because the roots are destroyed near the base of the plant. Grub damage is easily identified because patches of the turf will turn brown and can be easily lifted up like a rug. It generally takes 8 to 12 grubs per square foot to damage a lawn. At 4 to 6 grubs per square foot, the lawn will not be directly affected but can be damaged by skunks and other animals digging for them.
- MitesSpider mite injury is caused from the mite mouthparts damaging the plant cells in order to ingest the sap. Mite feeding can cause stippling patterns on the leaves, resulting in a gray or bronze appearance to the plant. Common insecticides are often ineffective in controlling mites and in some cases can increase the mite population. Special miticides and proper cultural practices are required to keep mites under control.
- AphidsHelps protect your plants against common insect and disease pests such as apple scab, cedar rust, needle cast, tent caterpillars, pine sawfly, aphids and others
- MolesTalpirid is the product of choice for professional pest control operators. Bromethalin kills and therefore controls existing mole populations with a single treatment. Talpirid mimics the moles' favorite food source (earthworms) and the pest will be eliminated within a few days of ingestion.
