Is your lawn looking patchy, discoloured, or off in some way? When lawn disease strikes, your lawn can undergo extensive damage in a short period of time, so it’s important to act quickly to identify the disease and control it before it spreads across your property.
Diseases often originate from stressful weather conditions or incorrect cultural practices (such as excessive watering or improper mowing). Fungal diseases thrive in warm, moist environments.
Most lawn diseases, including brown patch, dollar spot, and leaf blight, are fungal diseases, meaning the symptoms are caused by fungi in the soil. Bacteria and other microscopic organisms can also be the culprit.
With so many varying symptoms and possible causes of damage (including the potential of insect damage), it takes an expert eye to correctly diagnose the issue and develop a custom treatment plan.
Early professional treatment is crucial to effective control, allowing your lawn to bounce back to health. Your trained and certified technician will also advise you on watering and mowing practices to prevent the spread and avoid future problems.
Depending on the size and the scope of the disease, you may need to repair heavily damaged areas with sod or the appropriate grass seed. Act fast to avoid excessive damage.
Some lawn diseases are more common than others on certain types of grass or in certain geographic areas.
However, as lawn fungus treatment experts, the most common ones we see include:
Each disease needs a customized plan to rid it from your yard and keep it away for good.
A thick, healthy, well-maintained lawn is the best line of defense. Here’s how you can adjust your beneficial cultural practices to reduce the spread of lawn disease:
Yellow grass is one of the most common signs of poor lawn health. It could be a sign you have pests like grubs and chinch bugs. It could also be a sign of simple drought damage. And, of course, it could signal lawn disease.
Some minor lawn issues may fade with better weather, but most fungal diseases will spread and worsen without professional treatment. The safest option is to have your lawn diagnosed and treated quickly.
The best prevention is proper lawn care: mowing at the right height, watering early in the morning, and fertilizing regularly. A thick, healthy lawn is naturally more resistant to disease.
If you’re not sure what is causing brown or yellow patches on your lawn, start by finding the Weed Man in your area.
This is my first year using a lawn service company for my weeds. I was skeptical at first but whatever they did to my lawn worked. The advice they gave me about what I could do to help keep the lawn looking great from watering to length of cut really helped. I had several people comment on how great it looked. I called in a few times with questions about my lawn care. By far the best customer service people I've dealt with in a long time. Great people. Highly recommend.

This team is great. What appears to be a quick come and gone application, is from experience and a good eye. The moss control and fertilizer application has greatly improved the rich green colour. The aeration and overseeding has filled in those mole hills from last year's damage. Tegjot has requested a second weed control spray to get that pesky buttercup under control. Nearly 20 year of neglect is a work in progress, but already looks so much better.. Thank you.
