Lawn and Ornamental Care in Southwest Florida

A healthy Southwest Florida landscape needs more than occasional fertilizer. Heat, heavy rain, sandy soil, irrigation issues, weeds, lawn-damaging insects, and plant disease can all affect the color and condition of your yard.


Crews Complete Pest Solutions provides professional lawn and ornamental care throughout Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Naples, Lehigh Acres, Estero, Bonita Springs, and surrounding Southwest Florida communities.


Our recurring programs are designed to nourish your turf, manage weeds, identify damaging insects and diseases, and help protect the shrubs and ornamental plants that complete your landscape.


Local Lawn Care Designed for Southwest Florida

Caring for a lawn in Southwest Florida is different from caring for one in most parts of the country. Our long growing season keeps turf active for much of the year, but it also allows insects, weeds, and diseases to remain active. Crews Complete combines local experience with a recurring, property-specific approach.

What’s Included Our Lawn-Care Programs?

Your recommended service plan will depend on the lawn and the level of care it needs. A recurring Crews Complete lawn program may include the following:

01

Fertilization and Nutrition

Southwest Florida turf needs the right nutrients at the right time. Our treatments are selected to support healthy color, growth, and root development without relying on a one-size-fits-all schedule.

02

Weed Management

We target common broadleaf weeds and sedges while helping the desirable turf become fuller and more competitive. Treatments are selected according to the weed, grass type, season, and overall condition of the lawn.

03

Lawn-Insect Control

We inspect for insects that feed on grass blades, roots, or plant fluids. Early identification can help prevent a small area of damage from spreading across the yard.

04

Turf-Disease Monitoring

Warm temperatures, humidity, excessive moisture, and poor drainage can contribute to fungal activity. We evaluate suspicious areas to determine whether disease, insects, irrigation, or another form of stress may be responsible.

05

Shrub and Ornamental Care

Your landscape includes more than grass. Our ornamental-care treatments help protect shrubs and landscape plants from damaging insects, mites, disease, and nutritional deficiencies.

06

Ongoing Property Monitoring

Lawn conditions change throughout the year. At recurring visits, our technicians look for developing problems and adjust recommendations based on what is happening at the property.


Signs Your Lawn May Need Professional Attention

Many lawn problems look similar at first. Brown grass does not always mean the lawn needs more water, and additional irrigation can sometimes make a disease problem worse. Contact our team when you notice:

Brown, yellow, or thinning patches
Grass that appears chewed, clipped, or scalped
Small moths flying up as you walk across the yard
Weeds spreading through otherwise healthy turf
Soft, spongy, or irregular areas
Grass that pulls up easily
Mounds, tunnels, or disturbed soil
Orange, gray, or discolored areas on grass blades
Shrubs with spotted, curled, chewed, or dropping leaves
Black residue, sticky leaves, or visible insects on plants
A lawn that is declining despite regular watering

Common Southwest Florida Lawn Pests

Crews Complete Pest Solutions provides professional lawn and ornamental care throughout Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Naples, Lehigh Acres, Estero, and all surrounding Southwest Florida communities.

Southern Chinch Bugs

Southern chinch bugs are a major concern in St. Augustine grass. They feed by piercing the grass and removing plant fluids, often causing yellow or brown areas in sunny portions of the lawn.

web worm

Tropical Sod Webworms

Tropical sod webworm larvae feed on grass blades, usually at night. Homeowners may first notice small tan moths flying over the grass or resting in nearby shrubs.

mole cricket

Mole Crickets

Mole crickets tunnel through soil and feed on turf roots and shoots. Their activity can loosen the soil, interfere with root development, and create thinning or dying areas.

grub worms

White Grubs

White grubs live beneath the soil and feed on grass roots. Heavily damaged turf may feel spongy or pull away from the soil more easily than healthy grass.

caterpillar, insect, fauna, larva, entomology, macro

Armyworms and Other Caterpillars

Leaf-feeding caterpillars can move through a lawn quickly and leave behind chewed or thinned grass. Proper identification is important because treatment timing can affect results.

Fire Ants

Fire ants build visible mounds and may create a painful stinging hazard for families, pets, employees, and visitors. Their colonies can become especially noticeable after rainfall or changes in soil conditions.


Common Lawn Diseases and Environmental Problems

Not every damaged lawn has an insect infestation. Southwest Florida turf can also be affected by disease, irrigation, soil conditions, mowing practices, and weather stress.

Large Patch

Often called brown patch, large patch can create circular or irregular discolored areas in warm-season turf. Moisture, temperature, and turf-management conditions all influence its development.

Gray Leaf Spot

Gray leaf spot commonly affects St. Augustine grass, particularly during warm, humid, and rainy conditions. It can cause spots on individual blades as well as wider thinning or discoloration.

Take-All Root Rot

Take-all root rot affects the roots and can cause thinning, yellowing, and weak turf. Because the symptoms can resemble other problems, proper diagnosis is important.

Irrigation and Drainage Stress

Too little water can cause drought stress, but excessive watering can also weaken turf and encourage disease. Broken sprinkler heads, uneven coverage, poor drainage, and repeated standing water can all contribute to lawn decline.

Shrub and Ornamental Plant Care

Healthy turf can still be surrounded by struggling shrubs. Hibiscus, gardenias, ixora, crotons, podocarpus, and other common Southwest Florida landscape plants may be affected by insects, mites, disease, and nutritional stress.

Whiteflies
Aphids
Mealybugs
Spider mites
Thrips
Caterpillars
Nutritional deficiencies
And More!

We inspect the affected plant, surrounding landscape, and signs of insect or disease activity before recommending treatment.

  • This is by far the best company I have ever dealt with in my life! Mike and the office staff were so professional, courteous and friendly and went above and beyond. They got my service done in less than a day, showed up ahead of time and then when they found out my husband was a veteran they gave me a veterans discount. If you ever need pest control this is the company to use! Joanne Matthews 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

  • I cannot say enough good things about this company! Mike was absolutely amazing from start to finish. They were able to come out basically the same day, which was such a huge relief for us. Mike was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. He took the time to explain everything to us, teach us what to look for, answer all of our questions, and make sure we actually understood what was going on and how to prevent problems in the future. He truly went above and beyond and never made us feel rushed and having a little one run around as well how helpful and reassuring he was! It’s hard to find a company that provides this level of customer service anymore. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in what they do. We had such a great experience and will absolutely continue using them. Hands down one of the best businesses we’ve worked with. HIGHLY recommend Mike and this company to anyone looking for pest control!

  • Crews Complete Pest Control handles the pest control for all of my properties and I couldn’t be more satisfied! Now, I’ll admit…I’m a little dramatic when it comes to critters. The owner Mike seems to find this highly entertaining and takes every opportunity to mess with me about it. lol But he also makes sure he or his team stays on top of everything so I never actually have to go toe-to-toe with one of these unwanted critters. So I totally appreciate them!!! They’re dependable, thorough, responsive and always take great care of us. Highly recommend Crews Complete Pest Control.

  • Rich from Crews Complete Pest Solutions came yesterday for our quarterly service, and as always, the work was exceptional! After applying the pesticide, he spent a lot of time carefully removing all the cobwebs from our pool cage. Their customer service is also top-notch. A few weeks ago, we found fleas on our kitty. I called Mike, and he had someone out the very next day to take care of it! I highly recommend Crews Complete Pest Solutions.
