Turf Insect Damage inflicted on Your Lawns

Have you noticed that lots of lawns (particularly in Sydney, Australia where I live) are suffering serious lawn damage as a result of Lawn Foraging Insects?

We are posting this blog because a some of our clients are experiencing set backs with their lawns at present, and we thought it best to let you know that any set backs that you may be experiencing with your lawn at present is likely to be a result of Insect damage.

Some people think that maybe it's just a bit of heat stress and try to fix the problem with extra watering.

However, the best thing to do is to attack the problem head on with an insecticide that targets Lawn Feeding Insects.

These insects include:
  • Couch Fly, Couch Grass Mite, Curl Grub and Black Beetle attacking Couch Turf grasses
  • Curl Grub, Black Beetle, Bill Bug and so on that attack all range of turf grasses including couch, kikuyu, buffalo, zoysia etc
In keeping with Lawn Green's minimal spraying approach (think Dry Lawn Care Method), we use a Granular Insecticide that is bullet proof in its control of Lawn Insects.

The benefits of using the Granular Insecticide as opposed to the Liquid ones are as follows:
  • safer for customers because of the granular approach - it only has to be watered in afterwards to activate the insecticide
  • safer for us because it is a granular product
  • gives you control over insects for longer periods - depending on quantity applied to lawns
  • the granular insecticide is really effective because it is not photo degradable (that is, it does not break down in sunlight - whereas the liquid insecticides lose their potency due to breaking down in sunlight
Anyway, if you need help with fixing your Lawn Insect Damage problems please call Lawn Green immediately on 1300 55 74 72.
