Lawns, Trees and Shrubs
A sound fertilization program gives your lawn, trees and shrubs a beautiful and lush look. Frequent fertilization at lower application rates is key to achieving success with landscape plants. Too much fertilizer is not only wasteful but could actually lead to harmful diseases and insect problems.
Arborjet Tree Care
Arborjet is revolutionary technology that delivers insecticide or nutrients directly into the trunk of the tree. By delivering a dose of nutrients or insecticide directly into the vascular tissue of the tree, we can achieve incredibly fast results and increase the possibility of saving the tree for the long term. If you suspect an insect or nutrient problem with your trees, don't hesitate to call CARR Pest today.
Outdoor Insect Control
Insect control is essential in Florida horticulture, and CARR Pest Management gets rid of predatory insects that can damage plants, trees and grasses. Most important of all, we leave behind the beneficial insects that contribute to a healthy landscape. This step is critical, not only for the landscape itself, but for the environment in general.

A little bit about Florida grasses, including St. Augustine and Empire Zoysia.
St. Augustine is a very common grass for Florida landscapes, but it does have its drawbacks. It is prone to insect and disease problems and it is not particularly drought tolerant. To keep St. Augustine grass healthy requires 4 to 6 pounds of nitrogen fertilizer per 1,000 square feet per year. A mowing height of 4 to 5 inches aids in keeping the root system from drying out too quickly in times of low rainfall or lack of irrigation.
With its impressive color intensity, Empire Zoysia grass is growing more and more popular for Florida lawns.
