Aphid Control in Katy
Family-Owned Grounds Care in Katy Since 1983
Aphids are small, soft-bodied insects that pierce plant tissue and drain sap, leaving crape myrtles, roses, and other ornamental plantings stressed and struggling. In Katy’s warm, humid summers, a modest aphid population can multiply into a damaging infestation within weeks. Aphid treatment is folded into our Ornamental grounds care program, so affected plants get a proper inspection and an individualized plan rather than a generic spray.
We’ve served residents across Katy, Sugar Land, Houston, and the surrounding area since 1983. Our technicians are licensed, insured, and continuously trained on current treatment methods and EPA-registered products.
Call (281) 205-3592 to schedule a free aphid inspection for your Katy property. A member of our team can walk you through what we find and what we recommend.
Recognizing an Aphid Problem in Your Landscape
Aphid damage isn’t always obvious at first glance. The clearest early signs are curling or yellowing leaves and stunted tender new growth on susceptible plants. Look closer and you’ll often find a sticky residue on leaves and stems. That’s honeydew, a byproduct aphids excrete as they feed. Left unaddressed, honeydew develops into black sooty mold that blocks sunlight from the leaf surface and compounds the plant stress already caused by feeding.
Ants are another indicator worth noting. They actively tend aphid colonies to harvest honeydew, protecting the aphids from natural predators in the process. In Texas yards, aphids commonly target roses, crape myrtle, hibiscus, pecans, oaks, oleanders, vegetables, and bedding plants. They’re typically host-specific, meaning an infestation usually stays confined to a particular plant type rather than jumping indiscriminately across your landscape.
