Let Us Take Care of Your Chinch Bug Problem in Fort Lauderdale

Native Pest Management, a family-owned company founded by third-generation Florida natives, offers complete residential and commercial chinch bug control services to homes and businesses throughout Fort Lauderdale.

During our initial visit, we will identify the severity of the chinch bug infestation and note any other present pests. We can then determine what cultural management practices (i.e. over-irrigation, mowing too short, or under-fertilization) may be contributing to the host plant material being more susceptible to pest infestations and will recommend corrections to those practices where possible.

FAQ

What are the signs of chinch bug damage?

The most common signs your lawn is damaged from chinch bugs are yellow to brown patches of grass–however, discolored grass doesn’t always mean chinch bugs. It could also mean too much or not enough water, lawn fungus, weeds, or other lawn pests such as grub worms or armyworms.

What time of year are chinch bugs most common in Fort Lauderdale?

Chinch bugs are most active in the summer, with activity peaking in July. These pests can be found year-round in Fort Lauderdale.

How do I get rid of chinch bugs naturally?

One natural way to get rid of chinch bugs is by using dish soap or natural insecticidal soaps. You can also try spraying a mixture of water, dish soap, and vegetable oil. The dish soap will suffocate the chinch bugs. 

Another strategy to keep away chinch bugs is taking care of your lawn. Chinch bugs love dry lawns, so water your lawn regularly, about twice a week for 10-30 minutes a time depending on how dry or rainy it is. 

Adding shade can also repel chinch bugs, so adding trees can be beneficial to your lawn. Make sure to keep your grass long enough, 3-4 inches tall, and avoid over-fertilizing.

Do I need to prepare my yard for ornamental pest control services?

No, we do not require any sort of preparation for ornamental pest control services.

What do chinch bugs eat?

Chinch bugs eat turfgrass; most often St. Augustine and Zoysia grass.

How often should I get lawn and ornamental services?

We recommend that all clients get monthly lawn and ornamental service. For clients who don’t have a lawn or do not need the lawn care aspect, an ornamental service can be done independently.
