Pests We Target
Below are the tree and shrub pests and diseases we diagnose and treat most often. Click any one to read our guide on how to spot it and what to do about it — or have our NC-licensed technician identify the problem and treat it for you.
Pest Control
Sap-Sucking Pests
Aphids, lace bugs, spider mites, whiteflies, and adelgids drain sap from the leaves, causing yellowing, fine stippling, and early leaf drop. Azalea lace bug is the big one here in NC. Left alone they multiply fast and invite sooty mold.
Root Rot
Root rot is a water problem before it is a disease problem. Phytophthora, the soil-borne organism behind most root rot, only takes hold when soil stays wet.
Clear Communication From Start To Finish
We keep it simple — clear updates, dependable scheduling, and a crew that calls ahead and answers the phone, from the first call to the final walkthrough. Licensed and insured — for the purrfect lawn.

From weed control and fertilization, lawn mowing, lawn aeration, landscape maintenance, landscape installation, landscape lighting, tree and shrub planting, hedge and bush trimming, mulch installation, sod and turf installation, artificial turf installation, and drip irrigation — it’s all one local team across Raleigh’s southern suburbs instead of juggling separate companies.
