Lawn Disease Control

Beat the fungus that thrives in Carolina heat and humidity.

Our hot, humid summers are perfect for lawn disease. Brown patch can tear through a fescue lawn in a single muggy week, and warm-season lawns get their own problems like large patch in the spring and fall.

The key is prevention: a well-timed fungicide program keeps disease from taking hold in the first place, backed by curative treatment and simple watering and mowing adjustments when something flares up.

What’s included

What you get

Brown patch protection

Preventive protection for fescue once summer nights hold above 60°F — that’s when brown patch gets going here, and getting ahead of it beats chasing the damage after it shows.

Fall disease prevention

Large patch and spring dead spot infect bermuda and zoysia in the fall, even though the damage doesn’t appear until spring — so we treat them preventively in the fall, before it’s too late to matter.

Curative treatment

Knock down an active outbreak — dollar spot, pythium, gray leaf spot, and the rest.

Cultural guidance

Straightforward advice on watering (early morning only) and mowing that keeps disease pressure down between treatments.

Why it matters

The payoff

One bad fungal outbreak can undo a whole season of care in days. Staying ahead of it keeps your lawn green and intact through the worst of the summer, and protects the investment you’ve put into it.
