Disease:
Occasionally, a variety of diseases can affect your lawn.
CGM, Inc.'s goal is to help you have a healthy lawn which will
naturally repel disease. |
|
|
This is accomplished by aeration,
proper fertilization and a proper
watering schedule. As a customer of CGM, Inc., you can count us
to know the condition of your lawn. We will advise you if
and when disease control measures are necessary. Since most
yards will not normally require this service and in order to
keep costs down for our customers, disease control is an "as
needed" package.
|
| It has been our experience that most healthy
turf will outgrow most disease damage, making it
unnecessary to apply control products.
However, we are aware of the proper procedures for disease
control products and try to minimize its use whenever
possible. |

experience when applying disease control products to your yard. |
Insects:
Insects, especially fleas and ticks can be a major problem.
These pests can be dangerous as well as just a nuisance,
especially if you have pets.
Fleas and Ticks can be a major problem as discussed
below: |
|
|
Fleas:
Fleas are very small, typically less than 1/16th of an inch long.
These parasites, which live off a host by sucking blood, can spread to
lawns from animals, typically cats and dogs. Fleas can also carry
diseases. Flea eggs can be dormant for months and can be become active
again. CGM can provide flea control for your lawn to provide the best
possible protection. |
Ticks:
Ticks are also a parasite but they are larger than fleas
and can grow to about 1/4th of an inch. As with fleas, ticks
can be spread to your lawn by animals. Ticks can be
particularly dangerous. Lyme Disease and Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever are just two of the diseases transmitted by
ticks. CGM can provide tick control for your lawn
to provide the best possible
protection. |

potentially dangerous insects. Call for a free estimate! |
