We provide customized solutions to deal with poor growth, disease, weeds, pests, and more.<\/p>\n<p>To help you understand the wide range of threats that can impact your lawn, we&#8217;d like to go over some key definitions. Here are some terms you may hear our professionals talk\u00a0about after they&#8217;ve analyzed your lawn.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Essential Lawn Care Terms<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Invasive Plants. <\/strong>A plant that is not native to your ecosystem. Otherwise known as &#8216;weeds,&#8217; these plants can spread quickly and disrupt the health of your lawn by stealing vital resources.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grub. <\/strong>Larvae of Japanese beetles commonly live on lawns and feed off\u00a0turfgrass roots. This can lead to poor health conditions for your lawn if not properly treated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brown Patch. <\/strong>A disease that occurs in the summer due to the fungus Rhizoctonia solan and causes ugly brown areas to develop on your lawn.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nutrient Deficiency. <\/strong>When soil testing reveals that your soil is lacking certain nutrients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Compaction. <\/strong>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.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thatch. <\/strong>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.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Residential Lawn Care in Madison Backed By Our Guarantee<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With our expert service covered by our satisfaction guarantee, Lawn Doctor of Madison can solve a wide variety of important lawn care issues.
