What is happening to my lawn?

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Jul 21, 2014Try picking up the dead spot. If it come up most likely its grubs. They eat the roots causing the grass to die off. The result is the grass simply lays on the top of the soil and without the roots it can be picked up like it was freshly laid sod.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Jul 27, 2014Could you have fertilized the lawn and perhaps over did it on those spots? That will cause burn on the grass also. @Douglas Hunt perhaps you can assist on this?Helpful Reply

Pandalana Williams on Jun 04, 2016Is it just near the walkway? If so, it is too hot and maybe too shallow there. I had the same problem. I am in the process of digging out a section of my grass along the walkway and making a planting bed with a row of azaleas with hostas in from to line the walkway.Helpful Reply
