Expert Palm Tree Care

A defining feature of Florida’s scenery, palm trees are tough but not invincible. When they face disease, or pests, or outgrow their space, professional lawn care is essential. Bug Out’s experienced team is here to provide the specialized maintenance your palms need.

Florida Palm Tree Treatment Types

We offer targeted treatments to keep your palm trees strong and vibrant. Before applying any solutions, our specialists thoroughly assess your trees and design a customized treatment plan for optimal results. Our available treatment options for palm trees include:

  • Insecticide: Targets and eliminates harmful pests that can damage palm trees.
  • Fungicide: Prevents and treats fungal infections that threaten tree health.
  • Fertilizer and Tree Nutrition: Provides essential nutrients to support strong growth and resilience.
  • Tree Injections: Delivers targeted treatments directly into the tree for fast and effective results.
  • Seasonal Treatments: Scheduled care designed to protect palms from seasonal threats and environmental stressors.

How Can You Tell If Your Palm Needs Tree Care?

Wondering if your palm tree needs professional care? Keep an eye out for these common warning signs that could indicate health issues requiring attention: 

  • Frond Discoloration: A small amount of yellowing is normal in sun-exposed fronds, but healthy palm fronds should remain mostly green.
  • Drooping Fronds: Fronds that are dead, sagging, or twisting may indicate poor health, as a healthy palm tree should hold its fronds upright.
  • Trunk & Root Issues: Softness or oozing from the trunk or roots could signal pest infestations or disease affecting the palm tree.
  • Pest Infestation: Pests can cause significant damage to palm trees, affecting their overall health and appearance.

Tree and Shrub Fertilization

Just like all living organisms, trees and shrubs need proper nutrition to thrive. With the right nutrients, they can grow to their full potential and stay strong against pests and diseases. Bug Out’s expert fertilization services ensure your plants receive the care they need, using high-quality, specially formulated fertilizers to keep your Florida landscape lush and vibrant.

Shrub and Tree Pest Control

Pests are a common problem for Florida’s trees and shrubs, but you don’t have to worry. We have the solution. Bug Out will safeguard your plants from a wide array of pests, including:

  • Caterpillars
  • Beetles
  • Fungus
  • Scale insects, including Asian Cycad scale
  • Aphids
  • Whiteflies
  • Mealybugs
  • Thrips

Along with treatments for insect and mite control, fertilizer applications are part of our services.

Targeted Pest Control for Shrubs

For shrubs, we provide specialized services carried out with precision throughout the spring, summer, and fall, ensuring your shrubs receive the care they need during their most critical growing seasons. This targeted approach helps keep your shrubs healthy and vibrant year-round.

Oil Applications for Pest Control

Horticultural oil has long been a trusted solution for controlling pests like aphids, mites, and scales on shrubs. It not only targets these pests but also improves the overall health and appearance of your plants. This treatment can be done as needed or as part of our seasonal program, which includes applications in the spring and in the fall.

Moss Control for Trees

Live moss absorbs moisture like a sponge, adding weight to tree branches, which can cause them to break if the moss becomes too heavy. Besides damaging the tree, moss also blocks sunlight, which is essential for growth and can provide shelter for pests like cockroaches and rodents. After treatment with Florida Pest, the moss will die within 8 to 12 weeks and gradually break down over the next 12 months.
