Camelot Nursery & Landscaping | Licensed Landscaping in Gainesville, FL

In Gainesville, common lawn pests include chinch bugs, sod webworms, and armyworms, which can cause significant brown patches and thinning. At Camelot Nursery & Landscaping, we start with a thorough inspection to identify the specific pest. We then recommend and apply targeted, effective treatments to eliminate the infestation while promoting lawn recovery. We also advise on preventative cultural practices, like proper mowing and irrigation, to help your lawn resist future problems.

Lawn fungi, such as brown patch and dollar spot, thrive in Gainesville's humid conditions. Our experts diagnose the specific fungus by examining the pattern of damage and, if needed, can recommend lab analysis. Treatment involves applying the appropriate fungicide at the correct time and adjusting your lawn care routine. Crucially, we address the underlying conditions—like improving drainage, reducing thatch, and optimizing watering schedules—to create an environment where fungus struggles to return.
