Identifying & Treating
Lawn Diseases
The Three Components of Lawn Diseases Are:
- The Pathogen – The organism that infects the host and causes damage.
- The Environment – Environmental conditions, like high temperatures and low moisture that favor pathogen development or reduce the health and vigor of the lawn.
- The Host – A grass variety or species that are susceptible to that pathogen.
What To Look For In Your Lawn:
Spots on leaves, brown patches, or areas of dead grass may look like damage caused by disease, but they do not immediately indicate that there is a disease present in the lawn. Lawnmowers with dull blades, mowing too short (scalping), lawn-damaging insects, a poorly calibrated irrigation system, or a lack of irrigation can also cause symptoms in your lawn that may be confused with lawn disease. A lack of proper irrigation is the most common cause of stress to the lawn in the hot summer, leading to lawn disease.
Lawn Disease Treatments:
- Fungicide application (possible two) 14 to 21 days apart
- Maintaining lawn mowing height at 3” to 3.5” in the heat of the summer
- Identifying stress factors (irrigation, proper fertilization, or compaction)
