Soils Alive — Our Story

From early in his career, Michael Bosco has embraced the ideals of providing safe and effective services for his customers.  He grew up playing an integral role in a family owned structural pest control business in the Dallas, Texas area.  Later, Michael’s interests grew to include the science behind soil & plant health and organic agricultural practices.  He expanded his service offerings to customers to include lawn and landscape fertilization programs.

Upon earning a degree in plant and soil science in the mid-1990s, and sensing a change in the needs of lawn care customers, Michael became interested in safer methods and alternatives to chemical fertilization.  In 1996, he began converting all his chemical fertilization programs to organic.  The change was met with steady and growing interest among customers.  With the new found popularity of his unique organic services and applications offering, the idea was born – in 1997 Michael began operating under the name Soils Alive, LLC, embracing and practicing lawn care and treatment through all-organic methods and practices.

During a decade of service, Soils Alive has grown dramatically, gaining a devoted following among customers through our industry-leading organic applications, the guaranteed results of our Soil-building Program and our commitment to the satisfaction of all Soils Alive customers.  Soils Alive continues to lead our industry in the advancement of organic and all-natural fertilization methods and applications.  We have expanded beyond the Dallas - Fort Worth area to include operations in the Houston and Austin, Texas.

Soils Alive embraces the idea that a healthy lawn comes from healthy soil that is alive and dense with the organisms and nutrients that nature intended.  Feeding the soil with natural and safe nutrient-dense applications will give one’s lawn and landscape the best defense it needs to stay green, stave off the effects of drought and fight common insect and disease issues often encountered in other chemically-treated lawns.
