Ficus hedges are a popular choice in Palm Beach County because they are dense, fast growing and offer privacy. But in 2007 the invasive species ficus whitefly, or whitefly Singhiella simplex, made its way into South Florida and has since caused massive damage to ornamental landscaping, especially on the island of Palm Beach. Ficus whitefly infestation causes defoliation of the host plant by siphoning off essential nutrients in the sap of the plant. Left untreated, the Ficus hedges will eventually die. Our logo contains a lady bug, which is one of the few natural predators whiteflies have.
It should also be noted that Whiteflies are becoming immune to the natural and chemical pesticide products that lawn fertilization and pest control companies have been using, making us have to try and stay ahead of the game with new and different products recommended by the University of Florida.
Keep in mind, some HOAs and towns will fine you for not controlling Ficus whiteflies to limit their ability to spread to neighboring shrubs in the areas.
Our company has trained pesticide professionals that have been treating West Palm Beach, Palm beach Gardens and Jupiter, Florida’s ornamental landscaping plants for ficus white flies and other pests for decades and have the expertise to get the job done right the first time at a price you can afford.
