Ficus Whitefly in South Florida

If you plants are wilting and dying, there is a chance they have been infested with the dreaded Ficus Whitefly. This has been happening to ficus trees and hedges in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties, Florida. This was discovered to be the fig (ficus) whitefly, Singhiella simplex, and is a new US continental pest. Whiteflies are small, winged insects. These insects generally feed on the bottomside of leaves with their “needle-like” mouthparts. Whiteflies can seriously harm host plants by drinking juices from them causing stunging, wilting, yellowing, leaf drop, or even death.

Unfortunately, the leaves from the infected ficus trees begin to turn yellow before the leaves are dropped from the plant. A to Z Environmental Tip: Ficus trees missing leaves are one of the most obvious symptoms of a whitefly infestation.

It is highly recommended that you call A to Z Environmental Services for whitefly pest control. Call today to get a quote for the site (landscape, hedge, large tree, container, production, etc), the size and number of trees, and the surrounding environment before initiating the procedures to control this pest.

Horse Basics with South Florida Shavings

Horses are one of the most lovable pets to own. As A Matter Of Fact, they are very similar to people with their defined personalities. However, taking care of your horse is a great duty and your horse must be cared for properly to it healthy and happy. To offer the proper level of attention for your horse, you can think of it as being a child of about 4 years old because this is equivalent to their level of mental capacity.

The number one thing that you will want for your horse is a stable/home. This could be a stable or a paddock. If you do not have somewhere big enough for your horse to live at your house, you may want to look into agistment or a place that rents out stables or land for horses to live. You will need to maintain your horse’s home sanitized by taking out his droppings everyday for stables and weekly for pasture. Pine shavings are widely recommended in stables. Pine Shavings are cost effective, fresh scented and eco-friendly.

There are also numerous daily duties that you will make as an owner. The first is feeding your horse. If you have your horse in a stable, you will need to feed it grains and chaff, as well as hay and make the stable comfy for it by providing sawdust or pine shavings for bedding. Horses also need large amounts of fresh clean drinking water.

Your horse will demand to be warmed frequently and just as people horses require to have regular medical exams from a vet, even if they are not sick, to verify that they are safe. If you have any fears about your horse or what to give it or how much, your vet will also be able to help you.

Pest Control in South Florida - Ticks

A to Z Environmental Services offers specialized services to remove pests such as ticks and fleas from your residence, business or yard! Don't allow these dangerous parasites into your house or home!

Ticks are blood-feeding parasites that are generally found in tall grass and shrubs where they simply wait to attach themselves to a passing host. They do this by inserting their cutting mandibles and feeding tube into skin.

The only method of transportation for ticks is physical contact. They do not jump or fly, although they may drop from their location and fall onto a host. Some ticks may stalk the host from ground level, emerging from cracks or crevices located in the woods or even inside a home or kennel, where infestations of "seed ticks" (the six-legged stage of newborn ticks) can attack in numbers up to 3,000 at a time.

Mature ticks are easier to see and can be removed with care. Frequent grooming and chemicals for pest control may control the spread of seed ticks and adults.

The summer months in Florida are particularly warm which are when the tick population is over crowded.
