Lawns in Palmetto deal with a little bit of everything: heat, humidity, sandy soil in some spots, thicker soil in others, and constant weed and pest pressure thanks to the warm air coming off the Manatee River and the Bay. Some days the lawn looks great, and then after a hot week or a stretch of rain, you start seeing stress, patches, or weeds popping up in clusters. Farrow Pest Services builds lawn programs that match how Palmetto lawns actually behave.
Palmetto soil drains quickly, so fertilizer can disappear fast if it’s not the right type. Our blend feeds steadily and encourages thicker, healthier turf that can handle heat and daily wear without dropping color.
Warm temperatures mean weeds show up early and often. We use pre-emergent treatments to stop new weeds from sprouting and target any existing weeds as needed. No heavy spraying just clean, effective control.
If your lawn feels tight or the grass starts thinning after summer heat or heavy rain, aeration helps relieve compaction and opens the soil for better growth. Overseeding thickens thin areas and gives the yard a more even look heading into the next season.
Palmetto yards see regular visits from grubs, chinch bugs, armyworms, and other turf-damaging insects. We treat them early to prevent widespread damage and offer pet-friendly options for families with animals.
Some lawns in Palmetto run acidic, especially in shaded or low-lying areas. Lime treatments help balance pH so your lawn can actually absorb nutrients and stay healthy.
Warm-season grasses perform best in Palmetto’s heat and humidity:
St. Augustine – strong choice for shade and coastal areas
Zoysia – soft, thick, and durable
Bermuda – loves full sun and high temperatures
Centipede – great for sandy soil and low-maintenance yards
Bahia – hardy option for larger or more rural properties
