Questions from the field:
I think my trees and shrubs have been infested with insects, now what?
Grillo Landscape Solutions provides two options to both their residential and commercial customers.
The first option (recommended) for best results we recommend the annual insect control program. The yearly program traditionally begins in March and goes through October, weather permitting. Benefits of the program include:
- Regular visits every 5 – 7 weeks by a professionally licensed and trained during the growing season.
- Licensed technicians take care of all existing trees, shrubs and perennials.
- Service guarantee, if at any time between treatments an issue is spotted, a Grillo Landscape Solutions licensed technician will schedule a service call at no additional charge.
- A customized liquid application based on current time of year and insects present.
The second option is a onetime spot treatment applied by one of Grillo Landscape Solutions licensed technicians on infested areas.
An example of our custom applications include, Dormant oil in early spring and late fall which kills eggs of scales and mites. We also can spray for Cottling moths on trees and plants.
