Get Rid of Chinch Bugs in Your Lawn

Chinch bugs thrive in hot, dry weather that make Florida lawns especially vulnerable. They may be small, but they can cause serious damage to your lawn. These pests pierce grass blades and suck out the juices, leaving behind yellowing, thinning, and dying patches. Without professional treatment, chinch bugs can spread quickly and ruin large sections of turf.

​

At Liberty Lawn and Pest, we specialize in identifying, treating, and preventing chinch bug infestations to restore your lawn’s health and keep it looking green year-round.

Our Chinch Bug Treatment Process

​

• Identification and Inspection
  We confirm the presence of chinch bugs by inspecting damaged areas, checking thatch layers, and spotting the bugs themselves.

• Cultural Lawn Care Practices
  A healthy lawn is the best defense. We recommend proper watering, fertilization, mowing, and thatch reduction to minimize chinch bug activity.

• Insecticidal Treatments
  We use targeted treatments, including liquid sprays with proven active ingredients such as bifenthrin, imidacloprid, or permethrin, to eliminate chinch bug populations effectively.

• Biological Control
  In some cases, we may introduce beneficial nematodes or predatory insects that naturally attack chinch bugs.

• Soil Treatments
  For severe infestations, soil drenches penetrate deeper to control chinch bugs hiding in the soil and thatch layers.

• Monitoring and Follow-Up
  Because chinch bugs can return, we provide ongoing monitoring and follow-up treatments as needed. Our maintenance programs help ensure long-term protection.

• Customer Education
  We provide simple lawn care tips—like proper irrigation schedules and mowing practices—to help you maintain a healthy, pest-resistant lawn.
