Outdoor Lawn Pest Control

Lawn Pest Control in North Texas

Weed Solutions Inc. provides lawn pest control for North Texas properties. Treatment covers common outdoor pests, including grub worms, fire ants, chinch bugs, armyworms, fleas, ticks, aphids, bagworms, and borers.

Treat the Pest in Your Yard

Different pests cause different issues in your lawn. Grubs feed below the soil, chinch bugs damage grass, fire ants build colonies, and fleas and ticks can be carried into your home by pets or people.

The first step is finding out which specific pest is present. Treatment can then focus on the specific pest instead of applying the same approach to every lawn.

Weed Solutions Inc. provides pest treatment for lawns, along with insect and disease care for trees and shrubs.

Your Lawn Pest Service

How Lawn Pest Control Works?

The lawn and landscape are checked for pest activity and visible damage before treatment.

Check the Problem Areas

Areas with thinning grass, insect activity, mounds, damaged plants, or other visible problems get a closer look.

Identify the Pest

The type of pest matters. Grubs, fire ants, chinch bugs, armyworms, fleas, and ticks do not all live or feed in the same places.

Check the Damage

Grass, roots, soil, and landscape plants are checked where the pest is likely to be active.

Choose the Treatment

Treatment is selected for the specific pest and the areas where it lives and shows activity.

Apply the Treatment

The appropriate lawn or landscape areas are treated by our experienced technicians.

Watch for Continued Activity

Keep an eye on the treated areas. Continued pest activity or new damage should be shared with our technicians for potential re-treatment.

Know What Is in Your Yard

Lawn Pests We Treat

Weed Solutions Inc. treats a range of pests found in North Texas lawns and landscapes.

Grub Worms

Grubs live below the soil and feed on grass roots. Damage can show up as thinning, yellowing, or brown turf that pulls away from the soil more easily than healthy grass.

Fire Ants

Fire ants build colonies in lawns and other outdoor areas. Visible mounds are an obvious sign, but much of the colony remains below the soil.

Chinch Bugs

Chinch bugs feed on grass and can leave yellow or brown areas in the lawn. Damage can sometimes look like drought stress, especially during hot weather.

Armyworms

Armyworms feed on grass blades and can quickly damage turf when their numbers are high. Chewed grass and areas that suddenly look thin or scalped deserve attention.

Fleas and Ticks

Fleas and ticks can be found in lawns and other outdoor areas, particularly places used by pets or covered, protected areas where they can easily hide.

Aphids

Aphids feed on plant growth and are more likely to affect trees, shrubs, and other landscape plants than the lawn itself.

Bagworms

Bagworms feed on trees and shrubs. Their hanging bags are often one of the easiest signs to spot on affected plants.

Borers

Borers can damage trees by feeding inside the trunk or branches. You may notice small holes, thinning leaves, or branches starting to die back.

Signs of Lawn Pest Activity

Not every brown or thin area is caused by insects. A few signs can tell you when the lawn needs a closer look.

  • Grass Is Turning Brown

    Brown patches can come from pests, watering problems, disease, heat, or other lawn conditions. The area should be checked before treatment.

  • Grass Pulls Up Easily

    Grass with damaged roots may lift more easily from the soil. Grubs are one possible cause.

  • Grass Looks Chewed

    Chewed blades or turf that suddenly looks cut down can indicate feeding by insects such as armyworms.

  • Fire Ant Mounds Appear

    Visible mounds are a clear sign of fire ant activity, although the colony itself extends below the ground.

  • Insects Are Visible

    Seeing insects repeatedly in the same part of the lawn or landscape is worth reporting, especially when plant or turf damage appears at the same time.

  • Trees or Shrubs Show Damage

    Holes, damaged leaves, hanging bags, or unusual changes in branches may indicate aphids, bagworms, borers, or other plant pests.

Brown Grass May Not Mean Insects

Lawn Damage Can Have Other Causes

Brown, yellow, or thin grass does not always mean insects are present.

Too much or too little water, compacted soil, disease, poor nutrition, shade, and other lawn problems can look similar to pest damage.

Checking the lawn first matters. It helps our technicians diagnose the problem and determine what needs attention. Pest treatment will not correct a watering problem, and adding fertilizer will not solve an active grub or chinch bug problem.

For homeowners dealing with hard soil rather than insects, liquid aeration may be the more relevant service.

What to Do After Lawn Pest Treatment?

Follow the instructions provided after service. They may vary depending on the pest and treatment applied.

  • Follow Lawn Access Instructions

    Wait until the treated areas are ready for normal use before allowing people or pets back onto them. Follow the instructions provided by the technician after service.

  • Follow Watering Instructions

    Some treatments may have specific watering requirements. Follow the application directions rather than changing your watering schedule on your own.

  • Watch the Treated Area

    Keep an eye on the places where pest activity or lawn damage was found. Report continued activity or new damage.

  • Keep Up With Regular Lawn Care

    Continue mowing, watering, and fertilizing as recommended. Pest treatment does not replace normal lawn care.
