Lawn Care Services in Orlando & Central Florida

Orlando lawns have to survive blazing sun, sandy soil, frequent rain, and constant pressure from weeds and insects. That’s a lot to ask of any turf. Gato Lawn & Pest Control designs custom lawn care programs that help St. Augustine, zoysia, and Bermuda lawns stay thick, green, and resilient—even in the toughest parts of the Central Florida growing season.

Instead of throwing the same fertilizer and weed spray at every yard, we look at your grass type, soil conditions, shade patterns, irrigation, and pest history, then build a plan that gives your lawn what it actually needs.

The Gato Annual Lawn Care Program

The Gato Annual Lawn Care Program offers a simple and effective solution for year round lawn care. You’ll receive monthly lawn treatments that include lawn fertilizer, weed control and lawn feeding insect control to protect against chinch bugs, sod webworms, army worms, grub worms, mole crickets, fleas and fire ants as well as lawn and shrub disease control. With the Gato Annual Lawn Care Program, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your lawn is protected by expert technicians dedicated to maintaining a healthy and pest-free lawn.

What Makes Orlando Lawns Different

Most lawns in the Orlando area grow in sandy, fast-draining soils that don’t hold nutrients for long. Add in daily summer storms, irrigation overspray, and mowing habits, and it’s easy to end up with:
1

Thin, patchy turf

2

Persistent weeds in bare areas

3

Brown or yellow sections from disease or insects

4

High water bills without the results you want

Gato’s lawn care strategy focuses on balancing nutrients, water, and growth so grass can outcompete weeds and recover quickly from stress.

What’s Included in Gato’s Lawn Care Program

Your specific plan may include:

Custom fertilization

Balanced formulas for your grass type, timed around seasonal growth patterns

Weed control

Pre-emergent barriers to stop many weeds before they sprout, plus post-emergent treatments for problem areas

Insect management

Monitoring and targeted treatment for chinch bugs, armyworms, grubs, and other lawn-damaging pests

Disease monitoring

Identification and management of fungal problems such as brown patch and dollar spot

Cultural recommendations

Guidance on mowing height, watering frequency, and other habits that directly affect lawn health

We’re not just treating problems; we’re coaching you on simple changes that can dramatically improve your lawn’s performance.

Seasonal Lawn Care in Central Florida

Central Florida lawns never truly “go dormant”—they simply grow more slowly at certain times. Gato sequences treatments to match:

Spring
Green-up, early weed pressure, pre-emergent control

Summer
Peak growth, insect activity, and fungal stress

Fall
Recovery from summer and preparation for cooler nights

Winter
Root development and underlying health, even when growth slows

By aligning treatments with the season, your lawn gets what it needs at the right time.

Lawn Care – FAQs

What does Gato Lawn & Pest Control include in its lawn care services for Orlando homes?

Gato Lawn & Pest Control’s lawn care program for Orlando and Central Florida homes typically includes custom fertilization, weed control, insect and disease monitoring, and practical advice on mowing and watering. Each lawn plan is tailored to your grass type, soil, and property conditions.

How often does Gato treat my lawn in Central Florida’s climate?

Most Orlando-area lawns benefit from regularly scheduled treatments throughout the year. Gato Lawn & Pest Control sets up a service frequency based on your turf type, weed and insect pressure, and goals for your lawn, rather than just following a one-size-fits-all schedule.

Can Gato help my lawn recover from bare spots and thinning grass?

Yes. Gato Lawn & Pest Control can diagnose why your lawn is thinning—whether from shade, insects, disease, or soil issues—and build a plan to help it recover. This may include targeted treatments, nutrient adjustments, and recommendations for reseeding or resodding in the worst areas.

Are Gato’s lawn treatments safe for children and pets?

Gato uses lawn care products that are appropriate for residential properties and applies them according to label directions. We’ll explain any short re-entry periods after treatment and provide guidance so kids and pets can safely enjoy the yard.

How long will it take to see a difference in my lawn after Gato starts service?

You may notice improvements in color and weed reduction within the first few visits, especially as existing weeds are controlled and new growth fills in. Heavily stressed or neglected lawns can take several months of consistent care to fully turn around. Gato focuses on long-term improvement rather than quick but temporary cosmetic fixes.

Does Gato Lawn & Pest Control handle both lawn care and pest control for Orlando homes?

Yes. Gato Lawn & Pest Control can manage your lawn care and general pest control together, along with shrubs, trees, palms, and mosquito services. This integrated approach helps your lawn and home receive coordinated care from a single trusted provider.
