Know the Signs
Brown Patches May Point to Lawn Insects
Lawn insect damage can resemble drought stress or other turf problems. Chinch bugs often affect sunny St. Augustine lawns, mole crickets can leave spongy soil and thinning grass, and sod webworms may create ragged blades or small brown patches. Early identification helps determine whether treatment, soil care, plugging, or sod renovation is appropriate.
