How to Protect Your Landscape from Seasonal Pest Changes

As the seasons shift, so do the pests that pose a threat to your landscape. That’s why seasonal ornamental pest control is essential for keeping your plants healthy year-round. Florida’s warm, humid climate creates ideal conditions for insects to thrive, and the type of pest pressure changes every few months. With strategic timing and treatments tailored to each season, Pink Agave helps protect your ornamental landscape from damage.

Spring Pest Trends and Prevention

Aphids, thrips, and spider mites become active early in spring as temperatures begin to rise. These pests target fresh, tender growth and can cause irreversible damage if left unchecked. Our approach in spring focuses on proactive inspections and light, targeted applications that control outbreaks before they spread.

Summer Seasonal Ornamental Pest Control

As heat and humidity peak, pests like whiteflies, scale insects, and mealybugs become more aggressive. Regular monitoring and treatment intervals are crucial this time of year. Our team takes a balanced approach that keeps pests in check while preserving beneficial insect activity and plant health.

Fall and Winter: Setting the Stage for Long-Term Success

Cooler months don’t mean a break from pest control. Fall is the time to manage late-season insects like lace bugs and caterpillars before they overwinter. In winter, dormant oil applications are especially useful to manage scale and mites. These treatments reduce populations before the spring rush, ensuring healthier plants in the long run.

Why Timing Matters in Seasonal Ornamental Pest Control

Being proactive with pest control means fewer infestations, healthier plants, and lower long-term costs. By adjusting strategies season by season, you reduce plant stress and prevent minor issues from becoming major problems. At Pink Agave, our seasonal programs are designed to meet the evolving needs of your landscape year-round.
