Outdoor Lawn Pests on Developed Lots
Some of what browns a Houston lawn is not drought and not a lack of fertilizer. Axe Lawn Services provides lawn pest control in Houston for developed residential and commercial properties.
The company is firefighter-owned. The work is outside, on the lawn and the landscape. It is not a spray inside the house.
Pets and children stay off the lawn during an application and until it is dry, usually one to two hours.
What Shows Up Here
| Pest | What You See | What the Visit Does |
|---|---|---|
| Chinch bugs | Brown patches in the hottest, sunniest St. Augustine, often near a drive or a walk. Watering does not bring it back. | A treatment aimed at chinch bugs in the thatch layer |
| Grubs | Grass that lifts like loose carpet because the roots are gone | A treatment timed for spring and early summer, before the grubs finish feeding |
| Fire ants | Mounds in the clay, and a sting risk for children and pets | Bait and a mound treatment aimed at the colony |
| Armyworms | A fast chew across Bermuda, often in a wave | A surface spray while the worms are active |
Brown that starts in full sun and does not answer to water is not a reason to add more nitrogen. That check is this page, not another fertilization round.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lawn Pest Control
How do I know if I have chinch bugs or just a dry lawn?
Chinch bug damage starts in the hottest parts of the yard, often next to concrete. If that brown patch is watered and still does not recover, chinch bugs are the likely cause.
Do you spray inside the house?
No. This is outdoor lawn and landscape pest control on developed lots.
