Lawn disease control
Stop Evansville lawn disease before brown spots spread.
High heat and humidity can turn a healthy-looking lawn into a patchwork of fungal damage. Matt’s Turf’s proactive three-application program is designed to protect turf before disease gets momentum.
Destroy those brown spots
Prevention is easier than trying to cure an active outbreak.
Do you have a beautiful lawn but cannot understand why it is plagued with brown spots when heat and humidity are high? The solution may be our disease-control program. We offer a proactive treatment program to help protect your lawn from fungus, including brown spot, before it damages the turf.
When it comes to lawn disease, the old saying holds true: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
Mid-May
The first application establishes protection as warmer, wetter disease conditions begin to build.
Mid-June
A second application reinforces the program as heat and humidity increase.
Mid-July
The third application carries protection through a core summer disease window.
Reduce disease pressure
Three cultural practices make the treatment work smarter.
Feed the lawn regularly
Nutrient deficiencies can weaken grass plants, and that is where our program can help. A nourished lawn is better able to fend off disease. To make feeding simple, sign up for our disease program and get exactly what your lawn needs, right when it is time to apply it, delivered to your doorstep.
If you need to water, water properly
Many diseases infect lawns when the grass blades are wet. Water only when needed, and water deeply so you can go longer between sessions. Morning watering between 4 and 6 a.m. is best because blades have time to dry during the day. Especially avoid late-day or nighttime watering, when grass can remain wet all night and encourage leaf disease.
Mow regularly—the taller, the better
Mowing too short weakens the grass plant and makes it more susceptible to infection. Most grass types should be mowed with a high setting of four inches or more. Mow often enough that no more than one-third of the blade height is removed at one time.
Local feedback
