Lawn Diseases

Most lawn diseases are caused by fungi and insects although grass species vary in their susceptibility to particular diseases.  Other factors affecting disease development include the overall health of the lawn, prevalence of certain diseases in our geographic area, weather and seasonal conditions, and lawn maintenance practices.

Although their causes, symptoms, and treatments may vary, basics such as proper mowing and watering can help bolster your lawn’s resistance to disease.
