Outdoor Pest Control | Fertilization

Spring is here and now is the time to consider outdoor pest control and fertilization to your lawn, trees, and shrubs. St. Augustine grass and many of our Florida trees, and shrubs require fertilizer and occasional pest control to stay healthy and beautiful.

There are new restrictions on when and how much you can fertilize your lawn and shrubs. You need to know your local area ordinances. You can find a copy of the State Model Ordinance here:

As of this writing, Indian River, St. Lucie, Palm Beach County, and the City of Stuart, Florida have adopted the State's model. Martin County, and Sewall's Point have adopted their own ordinances that have additional restrictions. Contact your local extension service office for updates and local ordinances. The current ordinances allow you to fertilize at this time of the year, however if you live in certain municipalities you may not be able to fertilize after June 1.

Many of Florida's turf grasses, palms, and shrubs require fertilizer. Some do not. It is important for you to know if your plants and lawn need fertilizer to give them the proper nutrients they need to thrive.

Fertilizing your landscape will ensure their continued health and vitality and give you years of enjoyment.
