| Beetle Grubs |
Grubs can destroy your lawn's root system before you even know that they are there. That is why we feel that it
is worthwhile to Use a grub preventer in areas where they are likely to appear. Grubs are the larval form of
various beetles such as the Japanese, June or European Chafer Beetles. Proper identification is important for
effective treatment. Green World's trained and licensed technicians can control grubs every time.
No Excuses.

| Deer Tics |
Lyme disease is a very serious health hazard. Follow the provided link for more information about what you can
do to minimize your risks. We have developed our Tic Treatment Program for people that want to reduce the
Tic populations around their home. While this treatment program will not eliminate the pest completely,
it will greatly reduce your pet's and your exposure to this disease spreading pest.

| Sod Webworm |
Sod Webworms can be highly destructive pests of lawns. Damage to grass is caused by the feeding of the larval
or "worm" stage. The adult moth does not cause damage to turf, other plants or clothing but is an easy way to
identify a potential infestation.
The damage caused by Sod Webworms may first appear in early spring. The damage shows up as small dead
patches of grass among the normally growing grass. The summer generation may cause general turf thinning or
even irregular dead patches in late June into early August. Sod Webworms prefer sunny areas and the larvae are
often found on south facing, steep slopes and banks, where it is hot and dry. Heavily shaded turf is seldom
attacked by the larvae.
Turfgrasses with fungal endophytes are generally resistant to Sod Webworm attacks. Look for perennial
ryegrasses, tall fescues and fine fescues that have "Endophyte Enhanced" on their package. The seed of these
grasses can be overseeded or slit seeded into existing lawns.

| Chinch bugs |
There are several chinch bugs that attack turfgrasses in North America. The hairy chinch bug, Blissus leucopterus
hirtus Montandon, is the most commonly encountered pest of northern turfgrasses though the common chinch
bug, Blissus leucopterus leucopterus Say, is occasionally Found. The hairy chinch bug prefers turfgrass species
such as fine fescues, perennial ryegrasses, Kentucky bluegrass, bentgrass.
Chinch bug damage is usually first detected when irregular patches of turf begin to turn yellow then
straw colored. The straw colored areas may be completely dead. These patches continue to become larger in
spite of watering.
Feeding by chinch bugs blocks the water and food conducting vessels of grass stems. By blocking the water, the
leaves wither as in drought and the manufactured food doesn't get to the roots. The result is plant death. Damage
generally occurs during hot, dry weather from June into September.
We use a fast acting control product to kill the active Chinch Bugs in your lawn

Wild turkey are becoming a more common sight in neighborhoods. They generally don't damage the lawn or
shrubs but I have included this link for those who are interested.
