If mosquitoes find you the minute you step onto the dock or the lanai, or fleas and ants keep coming back, City Green can treat the home and the yard. We are a family-owned team based in nearby Crystal River, we serve Homosassa homes and businesses, and you never sign a contract. You will notice the difference or your money back.
Our Services in Homosassa, FL
Homosassa customers can choose from every City Green service. Here is how each one applies to a yard near the river:
- Lawn Fertilization & Weed Control: Homosassa is unincorporated, so the Citrus County fertilizer rules apply to your lawn: fertilizer only in April, May and October, and no nitrogen or phosphorus within 25 feet of a canal, pond or spring. We follow that ordinance.
- Lawn Pest & Disease Control: We treat lawn pests such as 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 home, the services combined and the range of pests, which is why a free estimate comes first.
- Mosquito Control: Mosquito misting treatments cut down the mosquitoes settling in your yard. If your lot sits near the river, a canal or low wet ground, tell us, because water nearby is part of the price and the plan.
- Ant, Cockroach & Spider Control: Ants often trail indoors after heavy rain, and UF/IFAS notes that after heavy rain a fire ant colony may move to higher ground or inside a home. We treat ants (fire ants included), cockroaches and spiders.
- Rodent, Flea & Tick Control: We treat yards for fleas and ticks and handle rodents.
- Tiki Hut Treatments: A thatched tiki hut near the water is a Homosassa favorite, and UF/IFAS warns that two caterpillars feed on dried thatch and can badly damage the roof. Ask us about treating yours.
- Commercial Pest Control: We treat businesses in Homosassa with recurring commercial service, so a business can stay clear of pests. The estimate is free and there is no contract.
- Recurring Plans & One-Time Treatments: Choose a recurring plan if the same pests keep returning, or a one-time treatment for a single problem. Either way, there is no contract.
How to Know When You Need Pest Control in Homosassa
- Mosquitoes near the yard, dock or screened porch as soon as the sun goes down
- Ants trailing through the kitchen after rain
- Spider webs and wasp nests rebuilding along the lanai
- Fleas or ticks after time in a shaded, leafy yard
- Lawn weeds spreading faster than you can keep up
We do not treat termites, bed bugs, wildlife, bees or crawl spaces, and we do not mow or do marine and dock treatment. If your problem is on that list, we will say so on the phone instead of selling you the wrong service.
If any of this sounds familiar, our perimeter and interior pest control and lawn fertilization services are the usual place to start.

Serving Homosassa and the Homosassa River Area
Homosassa takes its name from a Seminole word read as either river of fishes or pepper ridge. The Homosassa and Halls rivers run through the area, and the Homosassa River begins at the large spring inside Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, where manatees gather in cool weather. Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins Historic State Park preserves the remains of a sugar plantation mill from the 1850s.
Homosassa is a census-designated place with 2,299 residents in the 2020 census, and it has a large retiree population. Moisture from the rivers and springs does not create pests by itself, but standing water is where mosquitoes breed. The Citrus County Mosquito Control District treats larvae and public areas and also does residential investigations and source reduction around homes, so you can contact the District about a problem. Private yard treatment from City Green is an addition to that work, not a replacement.
We serve all of Citrus County. If you are unsure about your address, call (352) 601-0682.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are mosquitoes worse near the Homosassa River?
They can be, because standing and slow water helps mosquitoes breed. UF/IFAS says removing standing water is the best way to keep numbers low. Our mosquito misting treatments cut down the mosquitoes that settle in the yard.
Do waterfront homes attract more pests?
Water nearby helps mosquitoes, and heavy pest pressure near water can raise the price of service. We do not claim any other pattern for the area.
How often should pest control be performed?
There is no single schedule for every home. After the free estimate you choose a one-time treatment or a recurring plan, and neither needs a contract.
Do you treat businesses in Homosassa?
Yes. We offer recurring commercial pest control for local businesses, with a free estimate and no contract.
When can I fertilize in Homosassa?
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 close can I fertilize to the river or a canal?
The county ordinance bars fertilizer containing nitrogen or phosphorus within 25 feet of a spring, pond, stream, lake, canal, sinkhole, wetland, stormwater inlet or the top of a seawall. The county fertilizer page explains the rule, and we follow it.
