Comprehensive Lawn Care Service in Florida
Lawn care and pest control go hand in hand. The year-round warm weather in Florida makes it an excellent home for bugs and fungus alike. Even during winter, many pests survive due to mild temperatures. Plenty of fungi thrive during the cooler months; in fact, some of them retreat during the summer due to the heat. But just because you can’t see them doesn’t mean they’re gone.
That’s why it’s so important to have a qualified lawn care professional on hand all year long; that way, any pest problems or fungal growths can be stopped as soon as they appear. Luckily for your lawn, the All Florida Pest Control team’s services include treatment for both pests and fungal diseases. With our team on your side, your lawn’s chances have never been better.
Expert Palm Tree Care
Palm trees are usually very self-sufficient and hardy, they occasionally need attention from professionals. Palm trees can still fall victim to disease and pests, and can grow too big for their surroundings. If your palm tree is experiencing these or any other problems, don’t hesitate to get in touch with All Florida Pest Control.
Our Palm Tree Treatments
Our palm tree services are designed with your tree’s health in mind. We will carefully assess your tree’s specific needs before treatments begin, creating a custom care plan to optimize its health. Here are some of the treatments we might implement:
- Insecticide
- Fungicide
- Fertilizer and tree nutrition
- Tree injections
- Seasonal treatments
How Can You Tell If Your Palm Needs Tree Care?
- Frond discoloration. Palm fronds should generally be bright green. Some discoloration is normal, but excessive yellow or gray could be a sign of a deeper problem.
- Dead, drooping, or twisting fronds. Palm fronds should be strong enough to stay upright. Many palms are “self-cleaning” and will naturally drop dead fronds over time, so their presence is normal, but too many can be an issue.
- Trunk or root problems. A sick palm tree’s trunks or roots may have soft or oozing spots. These can indicate pests or disease.
- Pest sightings. Several pests inhabit palm trees and can do a lot of damage if left untreated.

Oil Applications for Pest Control
The All Florida Pest Control team uses horticultural oil in certain pest control applications in addition to pesticides. Depending on the pest problem your trees or shrubs have, we tailor our treatments to eradicate them most effectively without harming your landscape.
Moss Control for Trees
Live moss acts like a sponge absorbing moisture, which increases its weight. If a branch becomes too weighed down by moss, it can easily break off. Not only could the weight of moss damage a tree, but it also physically blocks out sunlight that trees need to grow. In addition, pests such as cockroaches and rodents may use moss as a harborage area. When you work with Florida Pest, any moss will be dead between 8 to 12 weeks after treatment. It will gradually disintegrate and disappear over the course of 12 months.
