Sod webworms can damage otherwise healthy lawns by feeding on grass blades close to the soil surface. As activity increases, affected areas may become thin, brown, or irregular and can sometimes resemble drought stress or other lawn problems.
Lawn Doctor provides professional sod webworm control and lawn pest services throughout Coral Springs, Sunrise, Pembroke Pines, and surrounding South Florida communities. Our team can inspect your lawn for signs of activity and recommend treatment based on the condition of the turf and the extent of the problem.
What Are Sod Webworms?
Sod webworms are the larval stage of small lawn moths. The larvae live near the soil surface and feed on grass blades. The adult moths themselves do not damage turf, but their presence can indicate that eggs or larvae may be present in the lawn.
Signs of Sod Webworm Damage
Common signs can include thinning turf, irregular brown patches, grass that appears closely clipped, and increased bird activity in affected areas. Damage may expand when webworm populations are active and lawn conditions favor continued feeding.
Why Sod Webworms Can Be a Problem in South Florida
South Florida lawns experience extended warm weather and long growing seasons. These conditions can support lawn insect activity for much of the year, making regular inspection important when unexplained turf damage appears.
Professional Sod Webworm Treatment
A professional inspection can help distinguish sod webworm damage from drought stress, disease, nutrient problems, or other lawn pests. When webworms are identified, treatment can be targeted to active areas while the lawn receives the care needed to recover.
Helping Your Lawn Recover
After pest activity is addressed, appropriate irrigation, fertilization, mowing, and ongoing lawn care can help damaged turf recover and fill back in.
