There are many complicated issues that can affect your lawn. Without the right nutrients and reliable protection from outside threats, your lawn simply will not grow the way you want. With our residential lawn care service, Lawn Doctor of Madison works hard to make sure every lawn gets the attention it needs. We provide customized solutions to deal with poor growth, disease, weeds, pests, and more.
To help you understand the wide range of threats that can impact your lawn, we’d like to go over some key definitions. Here are some terms you may hear our professionals talk about after they’ve analyzed your lawn.
Essential Lawn Care Terms
- Invasive Plants. A plant that is not native to your ecosystem. Otherwise known as ‘weeds,’ these plants can spread quickly and disrupt the health of your lawn by stealing vital resources.
- Grub. Larvae of Japanese beetles commonly live on lawns and feed off turfgrass roots. This can lead to poor health conditions for your lawn if not properly treated.
- Brown Patch. A disease that occurs in the summer due to the fungus Rhizoctonia solan and causes ugly brown areas to develop on your lawn.
- Nutrient Deficiency. When soil testing reveals that your soil is lacking certain nutrients.
- Compaction. When your soil becomes too dense due to foot traffic or heavy rainfall. This can become a serious issue, as it will constrict airflow and prevent nutrients from traveling to your roots.
- Thatch. The layer of dead and living plant matter that exists on your lawn, between your soil and grass. Thatch can host insects and diseases, so when this layer grows too large, it can become a threat to the health of your lawn.
