Chinch Bug & Lawn Fungus Control in Manatee County, FL
The two things that quietly kill Florida lawns - chinch bugs and fungus - caught early and handled before they spread into brown, dead patches you cannot undo.
From $55/mo
We inspect for chinch bugs in the hot, sunny, water-stressed spots they love, watch for brown patch and large patch fungus through our humid, wet stretches, and scout for sod webworms and the damage they leave overnight. The moment we find an active problem we treat it, then put a plan in place to repair and re-thicken the damaged area and fix the watering or mowing that let it start.
Chinch bugs thrive in our heat and can turn a green lawn brown in a couple of weeks, while fungus takes hold in the humidity and overwatering that Florida summers bring. Both look like drought at first, so the wrong fix - more water - often makes it worse. Catching it early is the difference between a treatment and a re-sod.
It is for anyone seeing yellowing, thinning, or spreading brown patches, especially in St. Augustine or Floratam lawns in full sun.
Common questions
Chinch Bug & Lawn Pest Control, answered
My lawn has brown patches - is it dead?
Often not. Brown patches usually mean chinch bugs, fungus, sod webworms, or a watering issue - not a dead lawn. We inspect it, tell you what is actually going on, and treat and repair it before assuming anything needs replacing.
