Licensed Pesticide Application Services – Greater Victoria & South Vancouver Island

When pests invade your landscape, they don’t just harm plants—they disrupt the health, appearance, and function of your entire outdoor space. Left untreated, infestations can kill hedges, deform trees, ruin garden beds, and create stress for property owners.

At Ascent Yard Care, we offer licensed pesticide application services backed by plant diagnostics, precision treatments, and full regulatory compliance. We help clients across Greater Victoria and the South Island protect their landscapes from destructive pests—safely, legally, and effectively.

We’re not just here to spray. We’re here to identify the problem, solve it correctly, and help your landscape recover.

Why Licensed Pesticide Application Matters

In British Columbia, most pest control products—especially for outdoor use—can only be applied by licensed professionals. Using the wrong product, dose, or application method can:

• Damage non-target plants
• Harm pollinators and soil biology
• Create runoff risks to water systems
• Lead to fines or regulatory violations
• Simply fail to solve the problem

We are fully licensed under the BC Integrated Pest Management Act, with training in safe use, targeting, environmental protection, and product handling. That means you get results without risk.

Our Process – Diagnose, Treat, Protect

1. On-Site Assessment

We start by evaluating symptoms: yellowing leaves, distorted growth, chewed foliage, dieback, or visible pests. We identify the issue through physical inspection and plant health analysis—not guesswork.

2. Prescription-Based Treatment

We apply a targeted pesticide solution, based on species, life cycle, and site conditions. All treatments are selective, minimal, and applied only where needed.

We use:

• Insecticides (aphids, beetles, caterpillars, scale, whiteflies, weevils, etc.)
• Miticides (for spider mites and other difficult pests)
• Fungicides (for leaf spot, mildew, rust, root rot, etc.)
• Tree and hedge treatments (e.g., boxwood blight, lace bug, cedar flagging)
• Lawn pest and disease control (grubs, chinch bugs, lawn fungus)

3. Follow-Up Recommendations

We provide a clear summary of what was done, what to expect next, and how to reduce recurrence through proper watering, pruning, soil improvement, or plant replacement.

Where Pesticide Application Is Most Needed

• Hedge infestations (spider mites, boxwood pests, fungal blights)
• Garden beds with aphids, mildew, or beetle activity
• Fruit trees affected by fungal disease or leaf curl
• Lawns with chinch bugs, rust, or fungal patch
• New plantings under stress from pests in disturbed soil
• Strata and commercial properties where uniform plant health is expected
