Certified Landscaping Services in Hialeah, FL 33012 - Alex Molina Landscaping

Chinch bugs are a common problem for St. Augustine grass in Hialeah. We start with a thorough inspection to confirm the infestation. Our treatment involves targeted, effective insecticides to eliminate the bugs, followed by a customized lawn care plan that includes proper irrigation advice, aeration, and fertilization to help your lawn recover and grow back thick and green, making it more resistant to future pests.

Exposed palm roots, or 'surface roots,' are a frequent sight in Hialeah and can be a tripping hazard. It's crucial not to cut them, as this can harm the tree. Our tree care service can assess the situation and may recommend carefully adding a shallow layer of topsoil and mulch to cover the roots safely, or we can evaluate if root pruning by a certified arborist is necessary for the tree's long-term health and your yard's safety.

Absolutely. Prevention is key. Our ongoing lawn care service focuses on creating a healthy, robust turf that is less attractive to chinch bugs. This includes balanced fertilization to avoid excessive nitrogen that can attract them, core aeration to improve soil health and water penetration, and monitoring for early signs of stress. A strong lawn is your best defense against these local pests.
