Healthy Tree Program

To help trees grow strong and live long, our Healthy Tree Program works to give them all the nutrients they need. We feed your tree with macronutrients (e.g., nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) as well as micronutrients (e.g., iron, boron, manganese) to round out what your soil alone can’t provide. Your tree will also be treated with a systemic insecticide to protect it against damaging insects like aphids and leafhoppers.

We are proud to have a certified arborist on our team, so if you have any questions about the trees on your property, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. We’re always happy to come out and talk with you during a free consultation.

Fertilizer and Applications

Fall is a great time to give plants and trees all of the micronutrients they need. Our fertilization applications help stimulate healthy root development, as well as new growth and color for your foliage in the spring. We can apply fertilizer to shrubs and any evergreen, deciduous, or fruit trees.

Dormant Oil Application
Scale, mites, and aphids can wreak havoc on our landscaping. We help control them by using an organic-based mineral oil to protect shrubs and trees from the first onslaught. It works to smother hibernating eggs, so your yard can get a healthy start to the spring season.

Systemic Insecticide Application
This soil injection travels up through the plant system to provide season-long control from top to bottom. We use this application for aphids, Japanese beetles, bronze birch borers, leaf beetles, leafhoppers, and mealybugs—just to name a few.

Spider Mite Application Ornamentals that are struggling with spider mites require a separate treatment. The deep root injection alone won’t stop these pests, but a specialized formula can do the trick.

Pest & Weed Management

We’ll tackle those pests at every turn.

Quarterly Pest Control

Keeping pests in check is simple when you have a quarterly routine. Let our crew help solve what’s bothering you. Our standard pest control services cover all of your top concerns, including ants, earwigs, spiders, and various other crawly insects.

Every one of our pest control applicators is licensed through the state of Idaho. This means they have all of the necessary training and continuing education credits to safely apply insecticides for your property. If you have questions about our credentials, please feel free to give us a call.

Interior/Exterior Spider Barrier

Our interior and exterior spider barrier applications help keep your property on spider-lockdown. As we work through your perimeter, we also take care to clear out cobwebs from tucked away corners and doorways—just as an extra precaution.

Billbug and Grub Control

Lawns struggle to grow when they’re dealing with billbugs and grubs. These pests eat the grass roots beneath the thatch, which can cause your lawn to brown and die. Early detection and treatment work to prevent larger problems. When we can confine the issue early on, your lawn should be able to bounce back and thrive.

Fertilization Services & Weed Control

Give your lawn and landscaping what they need to thrive.

Our Lawn Care Program

Spring: Starter Fertilizer

Broadleaf weed control and starter fertilizer stimulate healthy root development for the new growing season. We also apply pre-emergent to prevent weed grasses from cropping up.

Early Summer: Balance

Another combination of slow-release, granular fertilization—plus broadleaf and pre-emergent weed control—extends your crabgrass maintenance for the start of summer. This also helps build turf.

Summer: Nourishment

When the summer stress starts to hit, we want to give extra nourishment to our lawns. This can prevent burnouts and encourage new growth and color. We also spot-treat broadleaf weeds, as needed.

Fall: Hardiness and Color

Ending the growing season with a final fertilization works to thicken the grass and strengthen the roots for winter hardiness. This will help to put your lawn to bed for the long winter.

Tree/Shrub Fertilizer Application

Your lawn isn’t the only thing that can benefit from fertilization. Trees, shrubs, and flowerbeds need nourishment beyond sunshine and water to stay healthy. Call us out for a consultation. We’ll walk your property and discuss the best course of action for all of your landscaping.

Shrub Bed Weed Control

When your property needs a little extra attention, our weed control services can come to the rescue. In addition to lawn care, we can also conduct weed control in your flowerbeds, ornamental mulch beds, and around tree rings.

At the Boise Lawn Company, we value professionalism. That’s why everyone on our application crew is licensed through the state of Idaho. This means they have all of the necessary training and continuing education to safely apply herbicides for your property’s landscaping. Please feel free to give us a call if you have questions about our credentials.

Soil Testing

The more you know about your soil, the better all of your landscaping will be. Checking the soil composition of clay, loam, and sand helps us determine the best planting and watering conditions for your property. We can also review the mineral content for any deficiencies, and then balance out your soil with customized fertilization.
