Landscaping Lake Wales FL | Call M S Lawn Services Plus

Chinch bugs are a common problem in our area's St. Augustine grass. Our lawn care program includes targeted insecticide applications during peak seasons to eliminate active infestations. We also recommend proper watering and mowing practices, which we can help you implement, to create a healthier lawn that's more resistant to future chinch bug damage.

We use a combination of pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides tailored to the specific weeds prevalent in Polk County, like dollarweed and nutsedge. Our approach focuses on stopping weeds before they sprout and effectively treating existing ones without harming your desirable grass, providing long-term control as part of a consistent maintenance plan.

Absolutely. Consistency is key in our climate. Regular mowing at the correct height, seasonal fertilization, and scheduled weed and pest control create a thick, healthy turf. A dense lawn is the best defense because it naturally crowds out weeds and is more resilient to stress from pests like chinch bugs and our Florida heat.
