Tree insect and pest management in Sarasota, FL

Common Tree Pests in Sarasota

  • Spiraling whiteflies: Coat leaves and surfaces in white waxy residue and sticky honeydew, common on palms and gumbo limbo
  • Boring beetles: Tunnel into stressed trees and can kill them from the inside
  • Aphids and scale: Suck sap, weaken growth, and lead to sooty mold
  • Bark beetles and borers: Target pines and weakened hardwoods

How We Manage Infestations

We identify the pest, gauge how far the infestation has spread, and match the treatment to the problem, from targeted treatments to soil and trunk applications. We also address the stress that made the tree a target in the first place.

Prevention Is Cheaper Than Replacement

A healthy, well-fed tree resists pests far better than a stressed one. Pairing pest control with good care and deep root fertilization keeps your trees strong enough to fight off the next wave.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the white bugs on my palm trees?

Those are most likely spiraling whiteflies, a common Sarasota pest that leaves white waxy residue and sticky honeydew on leaves and surfaces below. They are treatable with the right approach.

How do I get rid of tree borers?

Boring beetles usually target already-stressed trees. Treatment focuses on controlling the beetles and, just as important, reducing the stress through proper care so the tree can recover.

Are tree pests covered in regular tree care?

Pest control is most effective as part of an overall health plan. Healthy trees resist pests far better, so we combine treatment with care that keeps trees strong.
