Win the Turf Wars Against 3 Common Turf Grass Problems

As a commercial property manager, you understand how vital maintaining landscaping is for overall visual appeal. You also know how common turf problems make that mission more difficult than it needs to be. Monarch Landscape Companies is here with landscape maintenance tips to help you overcome common grass issues and bring out the best in your exterior property. 

Weeds

Nothing ruins the look and feel of commercial landscape designs like unsightly weeds sprouting from the ground. Rather than deal with weeds when they leech nutrients and water, put a stop to the problem before it happens. We can help you explore your options for post-emergent herbicides, and we suggest you use them during the weed-growing season.

With this tip, you must first identify the weed you seek to root out. The way you treat annual weeds differs from the approach you take with perennial weeds. Not sure what kind you have? Let us help you identify it and protect your grass. 

Turf Grass Disease

Depending on your turf grass, it may be susceptible to specific grass diseases. If you aren't sure whether disease plagues your property, look for dead grass, barren patches and browning. You may even notice signs of slime mold. To address grass disease, you must establish a proper fertilization and feeding schedule. This is another issue that our professional landscape technicians can help you with. You must identify the specific disease, so you develop the right solution that delivers results.

Insect Infestation

Another essential reason to property identity turf diseases is to you don't mistake an insect infestation for indications of disease. Fire ants, grub worms and chinch bugs are a few of the insects that may lay siege to your landscape and all the hard work you put into it. If you have St. Augustine grass as part of your landscape and notice dead and browning grass, it may be the work of chinch bugs rather than disease.

We can help you identify which insects threaten the health of your landscape and formulate an effective remedy. Insect control chemicals can help you regain control of your landscape, but you don't want to cause unnecessary harm or endure avoidable risks to your grass.
