In Hixson, we frequently see damage from chinch bugs, armyworms, and white grubs. The first step is a proper diagnosis, as the treatment differs. For chinch bugs and armyworms, we use targeted insecticide applications. For grubs, which feed on grass roots, we apply preventative or curative treatments depending on the season. Our approach always includes assessing the overall lawn health to prevent future infestations.

Simply reseeding dead patches often doesn't address the underlying problem. First, we investigate the cause—compacted soil, pest damage, disease, or improper watering. We then prepare the area by aerating, amending the soil, and removing dead turf. Only after correcting the root issue do we reseed or install new sod with grass varieties suited for Hixson's conditions, ensuring the repair blends seamlessly and lasts.

Prevention is key. We recommend a proactive lawn care program that includes regular, deep watering (not frequent shallow watering), proper mowing height to encourage strong roots, and balanced fertilization to avoid excessive growth that attracts pests. We also offer seasonal inspections to catch early signs of trouble. A healthy, well-maintained lawn is your best defense against the common issues we see in our area.
