Spiraling whiteflies or rugose spiraling whiteflies (Aleurodicus rugioperculatus) are an invasive species that were first introduced into South Florida around 2009 and rapidly became a serious problem in Palm Beach County disfiguring and killing many different species of palm trees and ornamental landscaping shrubs in West Palm Beach, Wellington, Palm Beach Gardens and Jupiter. Coconut Palm trees and White Bird of Paradise plants were especially hard hit. The spiraling white fly feeds by sucking out nutrients and water from the infected host plant causing major stress and stunted growth.
Rugose spiraling whiteflies also are a major problem because of the mess they create to pools, patios, outdoor furniture and other outside valuables by excreting what is called “honey dew”, which causes the rapid growth of a black mold which then covers everything in the infected area with a hard to remove layer of black soot. Pools beneath trees infected with spiraling white fly can become covered in a milky white “snow” and the honey dew will deplete chlorine and stain the decking. Ants and other pests are also attracted to the honey dew, which can be the start of a whole new problem.
Removing these nuisance pests before they cause too much damage is the answer. It is a lot cheaper to treat spiraling white flies than it is to replace your beautiful trees and shrubs and pressure clean all the black soot off your patios and driveways.

Is Lawn Pest Control Worth the Money in Palm Beach County?
Is professional lawn pest control worth the money in Palm Beach County? It really depends on your situation, but if you are paying for a monthly exterminator then why wouldn’t you want to eliminate the pest control problem before it came into your house in the first place? The best thing about lawn pest control is if when it is done right, it feels like a waste of money because you don’t see the insects or the damage they cause in the first place.
First of all, the ants and spiders that get into your home and cause you problems more than likely came into your home from your yard. When your lawn and ornamental landscaping is free of insects and pests, then there are limited ways for them to get inside where they bother you most.
Secondly, lawn pests cause millions of dollars of damage to sod grasses, landscaping plants and trees each year in Palm Beach County. Just one mature coconut palm tree costs more money to replace than it costs to treat your trees for spiraling whiteflies that can kill them.

Year Round Lawn Treatment & Pest Control Spraying South Florida
This is South Florida and lawn and landscape pests don’t take the winters off. Your lawn and ornamental landscaping will go through some changes during the South Florida seasons and St. Augustine sod grass does go into hibernation when it is consistently below 65 degrees, but for the most part they don’t stop growing. And the southern chinch bug, the pest that just loves to make a meal out of your St. Augustine sod grass, is active year-round in South Florida. They might prefer the sunny, warm weather of summer, but they can still cause major damage year-round.
Many Outdoor Lawn Pests are Active Year-Round in Palm Beach County Including:
Lawn fungus and the diseases caused by them are active year-round too. So while you may be used to trading in the gardening equipment for a snow shovel up north, in South Florida you need to keep your lawn treatment up year-round.
