Why Alpine homes get lawn pests

The sandy loam and clay that surrounds Alpine is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what lawn pests need to thrive. The coastal plain and rolling hills adds harborage, and the humid subtropical climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Atlantic, the Delaware River, and lakes see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

Prevention tips for Alpine homeowners

• Water deeply and less often to grow deep roots.
• Keep the grass at the right height for the season.
• Aerate the lawn to reduce the thatch.
• Avoid over-fertilizing.
