Common Lawn Problems

Lawn diseases usually appear as circular dead or dying spots in the lawn.
A few serious fungal diseases can affect home bermudagrass turfs. Spring dead spot, brown patch and dollar spot are among them. Bermuda decline (root rot) is another disease that occurs in poorly drained soil.
Spring dead spot starts as circular spots about 6 inches wide and can grow to 2 or more feet in diameter. It begins in the fall, but the damage will not appear until the spring. It is a problem on lawns where high amounts of nitrogen were used throughout the year and especially in the fall. Thatch build-up only worsens the problem. Avoid high nitrogen applications in the fall or late summer.
Some of the more serious pests that feed on Bermuda grass are armyworms, cutworms, sod webworms, and white grubs also chinch bugs seem to be very active this year (2023).
Bermudagrass mites and mealybugs can be a problem by piercing the grass and sucking out the plant juices. This can stress or thin the grass, but usually will not kill it. During the summer, when the grass is actively growing, it can easily handle small numbers of these insects.
If you believe your lawn is not performing well in the summer heat there is a good chance it will be insects doing the damage. Please give us a call so we can come out and access the damage.

Bermuda in general is NOT considered a shade tolerant grass. In most cases all grasses will thin out over time in heavier shade environments. Most Bermuda varieties start having some issues with shade once the full sunlight time drops below 70%.
