Brown Patch is a disease that affects all southern turfgrasses and may attack even the best kept lawns. True to its name, it is characterized by light brown patches that may appear as circular patches of dead grass ranging from a few inches to several feet. Brown Patch is most common during periods of high humidity when temperatures range from 75 to 90 degrees.
How Reduce Brown Patch infections on your lawn by following these tips:
- Avoid prolonged periods of turf wetness by ensuring good drainage.
- Remove excess thatch.
- Avoid evening and late-night watering.
- Water your lawn in the early morning.
Periodic check-ups and continued professional care will help reduce the presence of disease on your lawn. If the condition of your lawn does not improve, Lawn Doctor may need to take additional steps to help rectify the problem such as our Fungicide Preventative Program done 3 times a year during the peak season for Brown Patch Disease.
