Lawn Turf Disease

Proper Lawn Maintenance

• Mow at the recommended height for your grass type
• Regularly dethatch and aerate the soil
• Fertilize according to soil test recommendations
• Water deeply and infrequently to promote deep-root growth
  Improve Drainage
• Address low-lying areas or areas with poor drainage
• Install drainage systems or modify the landscape to prevent standing water
  Choose Disease-Resistant Varieties
• Research and select grass varieties known for their resistance to common lawn diseases in your region
  Maintain Proper Sanitation
• Remove and dispose of diseased plant material promptly
• Clean and disinfect lawn equipment regularly
• Avoid walking on wet grass to prevent the spreading pathogens

By implementing these preventive measures, you can create an environment that is less conducive to the development and spread of lawn turf diseases.
