Lawn Disease Control
What Our Disease Control Service Includes
Lawn diseases can weaken your turf by suffocating blades with fungal growth or disrupting nutrient uptake—leading to thinning, discoloration, and bare patches. Some of the most common issues we tackle include:
-
Red Thread, showing as pink or reddish threads on blades
-
Fusarium Patch (or Microdochium Patch), forming yellow or brown circular spots in cool, damp weather
-
Rust, with orange spore dust that can stain when disturbed
-
Leaf Spot, appearing as small brown or yellow lesions
-
Dollar Spot, creating small straw-coloured circles under humid conditions
