When you think of your yard, you probably think of barbecues, tanning in the sun, and spending time with your family. What you don’t want to think about, however, are swarming pests, like beetles and mosquitoes.
Unfortunately, pests pose a major concern for homeowners, but they don’t have to. At Lifestyle Outdoor, we have a number of options for insect control, and we can treat your entire community at once.
We prioritize HOA insect control in Leawood, because we want your entire neighborhood to enjoy spending time in their outdoor spaces. Read on to learn more about our pest control methods.
Some Common Pests
Before we highlight how we keep your lawn free of pests, let’s highlight what common pests we target.
Leawood and the surrounding areas are home to thousands of different animals and insects. And while many of them benefit the ecosystem, others may infest your lawn and cause serious damage. Some pests to look out for include:
- Beetles
- Billbugs
- Wasps
- Ants
- Ticks
The pests, and many more, can make their home in your lawn without the proper preventative measures. To get rid of them, you need expert help from our team of experts at Lifestyle Outdoor.
Why You Need the Experts
If you’re someone who loves taking care of your lawn on your own, you may feel skeptical about the idea of hiring a professional for your insect control needs.
While we never begrudge anyone for wanting to do things their own way, working with a team of experts does have benefits. For one, we provide pest control services for the entire community at once.
So if you’re part of an HOA community, and you want to keep all your neighbors on the same page, this may provide the solution you need.
Our safer insecticides also make Lifestyle Outdoor the best choice for HOA insect control in Leawood.
The Safer Bet
At Lifestyle Outdoor, we want to make sure you don’t experience any unwanted side effects after your insect control treatment. After all, your yard isn’t just there for aesthetic purposes. You want to spend time with your family and friends in your outdoor space!
You don’t want to feel worried that your kids or pets might get sick while they roll around in the grass. Fortunately, we offer a number of insecticide options, like neem oil concentrates and diatomaceous earth, that keep the people and animals you care about safe, while still getting rid of troublesome pests.
A Home Remedy for Unwanted Pests
You should wait for our experts to perform HOA insect control in Leawood. But what if you need relief from outdoor pests in the meantime?
You want to prioritize methods that offer results while keeping the people of your community safe. You can try a holistic approach that may temporarily drive out pests while you wait for a more robust solution: vinegar.
Vinegar effectively keeps insects out of your lawn, since its high acidity and strong smell can ward off insects. However, it’s only a temporary solution; it won’t provide the same long-term results that you’d see from a professional inspect spray.
Battling Bloodsuckers
When discussing HOA insect control in Leawood, you can’t forget one of the most obnoxious pests of all—mosquitoes.
Everyone has experienced it at one time or another: you’re enjoying some time in the outdoors, when you hear a whining around your ears. You spy a mosquito on your skin and slap it away as soon as possible, but the damage is already done. In no time, the characteristic red welt appears, and you spend the next few days scratching yourself raw.
And while we usually associate mosquitoes with the summer season, these insects can stay active for several months at a time, from spring to late fall. Don’t spend your year in fear of mosquitoes. Take dedicated steps to rid your lawn of these pests.
Preventing Mosquitoes
At Lifestyle Outdoor, we have the pest control methods you need for HOA mosquito control in your community, but you can take steps to prevent larger numbers of them from appearing in the first place.
Standing water attracts mosquitoes. If you have an old bird bath or water feature that isn’t fully empty, you’re essentially inviting mosquitoes to spend some time in your yard. If your lawn itself has standing water, then you may need some help from our irrigation experts.
For a home remedy that can help prevent mosquitoes, try garlic botanicals or citronella candles. But these won’t keep out large swarms of mosquitoes. To see more prominent results, talk with our team.
Consistent Care
There are a lot of mosquitoes on earth—more than you can even conceptualize. Scientists have found over 3,500 species of mosquitoes, and they estimate trillions of these insects live across six continents (excluding Anatarctica, of course).
That being said, there’s no way to completely eradicate mosquitoes from your community. And you wouldn’t want to! Even pests as annoying as mosquitoes have an important part to play in your ecosystem, like keeping other insects fed. But we keep your local mosquito population in check by offering monthly spraying for HOA insect control in Leawood.
By spraying each and every month, we help prevent mosquitoes from gaining a substantial foothold in the area, so you can enjoy your lawn without worrying about bug bites.
Keeping the Right Bugs Safe
Just because we offer HOA insect control in Leawood doesn’t mean we hate every insect in your yard. In fact, many insects can help us do our job by eating troublesome pests. Varied insect life helps keep your lawn healthy and thriving.
Our pest control methods don’t just keep your family, guests, and pets safe, they also preserve beneficial insects, like praying mantises and ladybugs. But just because we keep the right insects safe doesn’t mean our methods are less effective.
Even after a month of mosquito spraying, you should notice a sharp decline in the mosquitoes in your area.
A Different Kind of Pest
Whether you want to eliminate mosquitoes or a different pest, like beetles or ticks, we have the insect control methods you deserve. But insects aren’t the only thing that may prevent you from enjoying your lawn to the fullest.
If you struggle with invasive weeds like bermuda grass, then we can help you eliminate those, too.
You want a lawn that helps your property look its best, and weeds can make your outdoor space look unkempt or sloppy. But when you work with
