When it comes to your lawn and home, you want them to be beautiful, healthy, and protected—and at ProGuard Pest Control, that’s exactly what we’re here to help with. But the best results don’t come from a one-sided effort. It takes a team—you and us—working together to keep your yard looking great and your home pest-free.
Why Lawn Health and Pest Control Go Hand-in-Hand
A thick, healthy lawn isn’t just about curb appeal—it’s your first line of defense against invasive pests. Many insects, like ants, fleas, and ticks, thrive in thin grass, thatch, or overwatered areas. When we treat your lawn with proper fertilization and weed control, we’re not just promoting growth—we're also preventing pests from moving in.
Likewise, eliminating pests like grubs and chinch bugs can prevent the kind of damage that turns healthy grass into brown patches. It’s a cycle: better lawn care means fewer pests, and fewer pests mean a better lawn.
What We Do: ProGuard's Role in Your Yard
At ProGuard, we handle:
✅ Lawn Fertilization & Weed Control – Feeding your grass the nutrients it needs and keeping invasive weeds at bay.
✅ Pest Control – Creating a protective barrier around your home and yard to stop insects before they become a problem.
✅ Insect Treatments for Lawns – Targeted solutions for pests like grubs, ants, fleas, ticks, and more.
✅ Perimeter Protection – Stopping pests from entering your home in the first place.
What You Can Do: The Homeowner’s Role
We’re in this together. Here’s how you can help make your lawn and home even more protected:
🌱 Mow Properly: Don’t cut too short—keep your grass around 3 inches tall. It helps retain moisture and keeps weeds and pests at bay.
💧 Water Wisely: Water deeply and infrequently—usually 1" per week. Early morning is best to avoid fungus and mold.
🧹 Keep It Clean: Eliminate piles of leaves, standing water, and overgrown brush—these are pest party zones.
🐾 Keep an Eye Out: If you notice brown patches in the lawn, ant mounds, or pests inside the home—call us early. Fast action leads to better results.
