Our Services in Citrus Springs, FL
Citrus Springs homeowners can choose from every City Green service. Here is how each one applies to larger lots:
- Lawn Fertilization & Weed Control: Fertilizer may go down only in April, May and October under the Citrus County fertilizer rules, and at least 65 percent of the nitrogen must be slow-release. We follow the ordinance on every lawn, large or small.
- Lawn Pest & Disease Control: UF/IFAS calls the southern chinch bug the most damaging insect pest of Florida turfgrass. We treat chinch bugs, grubs, army worms, sod webworms and mole crickets, plus lawn disease and fungus.
- Perimeter & Interior Pest Control: Perimeter pest control is available as low as $25. The price depends on the size of the property, the services combined and the pests involved, and a larger lot is a bigger perimeter.
- Mosquito Control: Wooded edges and shady corners hold moisture. Mosquito misting treatments cut down the mosquitoes settling in your yard.
- Ant, Cockroach & Spider Control: We treat ants (fire ants included), cockroaches and spiders. Ants moving in from the yard are a common reason to call.
- Rodent, Flea & Tick Control: We handle rodents, and we treat yards for fleas and ticks. Tell us about any open land next to your property.
- Tiki Hut Treatments: UF/IFAS reports that caterpillars feed on dried thatch and can badly damage a tiki hut roof. Ask us about treating a hut at your Citrus Springs home.
- Commercial Pest Control: We offer recurring commercial pest control for Citrus Springs businesses, with a clear price and no contract.
- Recurring Plans & One-Time Treatments: A recurring plan fits pests and weeds that keep coming back, and a one-time treatment fits a single problem. Lawn and pest service can be combined.
How to Know When You Need Pest Control in Citrus Springs
- Weeds and thin spots across a large lawn
- Chinch bugs or other lawn pests damaging turf
- Ants or spiders moving into the house from the yard
- Mosquitoes near wooded edges and shady corners
- A lawn that is hard to keep green without help
Brown grass in winter may be dormancy rather than chinch bugs. UF/IFAS suggests checking the border between brown and green turf for tiny black-and-white adults before assuming insects.
If any of this sounds familiar, our perimeter and interior pest control and lawn fertilization services are the usual place to start.

Serving Citrus Springs Properties
Citrus Springs is a planned community. The Mackle Brothers laid it out under The Deltona Corporation as a subdivision of more than 34,000 homesites. It covers 21.2 square miles, all of it land, and the 2020 census counted 10,246 residents.
US 41, also called North Florida Avenue, runs through Citrus Springs, leading about 15 miles southeast to Inverness, the county seat. Pine Ridge borders Citrus Springs to the south and Hernando to the east. ZIP codes are 34433 and 34434.
With that much land and that many homesites, many properties have room for a big lawn to keep up. That is reasoning from the numbers, not a pest survey, but it is why this page leans toward lawn care. Citrus Springs is unincorporated, so the county fertilizer rules apply.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are pests more common near vacant lots?
We have no data that says so. Open lots can hold weeds and standing water, which help mosquitoes, so tell us what borders your yard and we will plan around it.
Do new homes need pest control?
A new home is not pest-free, because ants, spiders and mosquitoes come from the yard and the lot around it. Ask for a free estimate and we will walk the property.
What pests are most common in Citrus Springs?
We treat ants (fire ants included), cockroaches, spiders, fleas, ticks, rodents and mosquitoes, plus lawn pests like chinch bugs. We do not keep a ranking for the town.
Is year-round service recommended?
It depends on the problem. A one-time treatment fits a single flare-up, and a recurring plan fits pests that keep returning. There is no contract either way.
When can I fertilize my lawn in Citrus Springs?
Citrus County allows fertilizer only in April, May and October, and not during a flood watch, a tropical storm watch, or a hurricane watch or warning. The county fertilizer page has the full rule, so check it for your address.
How do I control weeds in a large St. Augustine lawn?
UF/IFAS says a healthy, vigorous lawn is the best weed control, and herbicides should be labeled for St. Augustinegrass. Weed-and-feed products can harm plants whose roots run under the lawn, so avoid treating the whole lawn when weeds are only in one area. We handle weed control as part of our lawn service.
Do you cut grass?
No. We do not mow, trim or do landscaping. We handle fertilization, weed control and lawn pest and disease treatment.
How much does lawn and pest service cost?
Perimeter pest control starts as low as $25. Lawn pricing depends on the size of the lawn and the products it needs, and a free estimate gives you the exact number for each service.
Can you treat fire ants in my yard?
Yes. Fire ant control is part of our ant service. UF/IFAS notes that colonies nest under slabs and along sidewalk edges and can move to higher ground after heavy rain, so tell us where you see mounds.
Do you serve areas near Citrus Springs?
We serve all of Citrus County. Call (352) 601-0682 with your address and we will confirm.
