Ground Services We provide a variety of solutions if insects are becoming more than just a nuisance. Bug Shield offers protection from the foundation up to keep insects out while Surface Feeding Insect Control offers protection from turf-destroying pest like chinch bugs or army worms.

Insects can be beneficial to the lawn, or they can systematically destroy it in as little as a week and render the lawn unresponsive to watering and fertilizing. It is important to know the signs of damage and take action immediately to ensure your lawns health.

Ants
Report
Ants There are a variety of ant species throughout Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. Although they can be very beneficial to the environment and your lawn (the will forage for insects and their eggs - including termites! They also turn and aerate soil and some species even pollinate plants). With all the benefits ants bring, they can also pose a problem to the lawn and even the home if they are able to establish a colony within a structure.
Earwigs
Report
Earwigs They are easily identified by the pinches attached to the rear of this insect (which is mainly used for catching prey and defense). Some species do no damage to the landscape while other species can damage seedlings, flowers and soft fruit plants. The damage can be noted by small notches chewed through the leaf or into the plant material. They are active night hunters of insect eggs, soft bodied insects and mites among other things (as well as plants, depending on species).
Japanese Beetles
Report
Japanese Beetles They can defoliate a tree within a matter of a few weeks (or sooner if the infestation is heavy). We have seen booms of beetle population in areas that previously had no problem. Although the damage looks severe, the tree or shrub usually makes a full recovery by the following year - but if damage continues to occur year after year then the tree or shrub's health may decline and experience die-back.

The feeding leaves the leaves with a lace-like pattern and looks unsightly. On top of the damage these pest do, they also lay eggs which later hatch to be grub larvae and can devastate turf-grass by feeding on the root of grass.

Fantastic company that truly cares about their customers. Technicians are friendly, knowledgeable and efficient at what they do. The ladies in the office are so helpful whenever we've had any questions. We would highly recommend Ground Services!

3 years ago we couldn't walk in our yard. Rock hard and thin grass, he asked we be patient as he planned services. First cut of this year and I can't believe how thick and green the grass is. Thank you GSI for giving us a yard we're proud of and be reasonably priced so we can afford it. Service: Weed control

Our grass looks amazing compared to last year without GSI! My 15-year old even mentioned it! We could not be happier with our lawn fertilization services! Highly recommended!

Have used GSI for years. Thanks to them, I always have one of the nicest yards in the neighborhood. There have been times when weeds appear, and they have been right out to address them. This 5 star is long overdue. Thank you for all you do!

Have always seen the GSI trucks driving in the area or seen their workers out doing what they do. I was always impressed with how well dressed and professional they looked- as compared to passing by some other company on someone's property with a beat up pick up truck, a trailer with mediocre equipment and a couple of guys in neon hoodies servicing similar areas.

Talk about sketchy. That to say the professional and clean look also extends to their services. Having had personal experience with multiple employees of Grounds Services and the owner himself, I'm confident that you really can't find quality and personal experience as good as this. Gave 5 stars because Google doesn't offer the option of a perfect 10.
