- Better curb appeal: With your grass now growing more effectively, you can expect your lawn to look better and boost your home's curb appeal.
- Reduced weeds: A healthier lawn means fewer weeds, leading to less maintenance for yourself down the line.

Rodents
-
Even if you haven't physically seen a rat or mouse, there are telltale signs of their presence. These include droppings found along baseboards, in boxes or bags, or near where food is stored or prepared, such as the kitchen pantries, drawers, cabinets, or bins. You may notice chewed spots or holes in food packages, such as pasta, grain products, or pet food bags. You may also hear rodents as they're nesting or moving around, especially at night.
-
A two-pronged approach can be effective in keeping rats and mice from taking up residence in your home. First, don't give them access to your food. Keep your kitchen clear of crumbs and store cereals and grains in sealed containers that they can't chew through. Second, eliminate entry points. Remember that some rodents can squeeze through openings as small as a quarter inch.
-
The professionals at Westfall's Lawn and Pest use baits and traps to remove rodents in Bradenton. We also identify entry points that may encourage their activity in the future. Just call Westfall's Lawn and Pest today to discuss a treatment plan.

Mosquitoes
-
In Florida, mosquitoes can transmit West Nile virus, eastern equine encephalitis, and St. Louis encephalitis. They can also cause heartworms in pets. It's important to keep mosquitoes under control so you can enjoy your yard without worrying about these pests.
-
The best way to control mosquitoes is to eliminate their breeding grounds. At Westfall's Lawn and Pest, we offer organic mosquito control services that target the areas where mosquitoes are known to congregate. By eliminating them in all stages of their life cycles, our treatments will reduce the number of mosquitoes quickly and effectively.
-
In Florida, mosquitoes are a year-round problem. We recommend having our technicians come out regularly to reapply the organic treatment to ensure that your property remains mosquito-free.

-
Termite infestations can be tricky to spot without the right experience. Still, you should keep an eye out for some of their most common signs and symptoms, including frass piles, mud tubes, or the discoloration of indoor wooden structures. If you're still not sure if you have a termite infestation, contact Westfall's Lawn and Pest right away to schedule an inspection.
-
Most of Western Florida experiences termite activity from one of three species; the drywood termite, the dampwood termite, or the subterranean termite. Drywood termites, like the West Indian drywood termite, exclusively infest human structures and are major household pests requiring immediate attention. Dampwood termites, like the Florida dampwood termite, on the other hand, only infest moist wood and rarely pose problems in the home. The final species, subterranean termites, are perhaps the most destructive of all. The Formosan subterranean termite, Asian subterranean termite, and eastern subterranean termite often infest homes and businesses and attack properties with heightened soil-to-wood contact.
If you think any termite species may be active around your Bradenton home, don't hesitate to contact Westfall's Lawn and Pest immediately.

Tree & Shrub Care
-
Treatment frequency depends on the specific needs of your property. During your initial consultation, we will provide you with a customized plan for tree, and shrub care designed to best meet the needs of your outdoor spaces. Generally speaking, we like to take the “spoon feeding approach” and feed shrubs at least three (3) times per year. While pest control and disease control treatments are throughout the year to keep your outdoor spaces looking their best.
-
We understand how frustrating an infestation can be; we offer comprehensive pest and disease control services to help get your outdoor spaces back in shape. Our experts will take a look at the problem and create a customized plan to get rid of any pests or diseases in your lawn and plants.

Tree Injections
-
Tree injections involve applying insecticides, fungicides, antibiotics, or other treatments directly into the root system of trees by using specialized equipment. We inject the treatment in small doses tailored to the needs of each tree.
-
The number of tree injections needed depends on the level of infestation or disease your tree faces. Depending on your needs, we can provide one-time, quarterly, or annual treatments. Even if your trees currently have no infestation, investing in regular maintenance and prevention is always a good idea.
-
Absolutely! Tree injections are completely safe for the environment and have no lasting adverse effects on your trees. In fact, our treatments can help keep your trees healthy and beautiful for years to come.
