South Deep Creek Landscaping - Winston Salem's Licensed Landscaping Services

In our area, you'll often see irregular brown patches, yellow rings, or a powdery or slimy substance on grass blades, especially during humid periods. The first step is to correctly identify the specific fungus, as treatments vary. We recommend contacting us for a free diagnosis. Our expert team can assess your lawn and apply targeted fungicides, while also advising on proper watering and mowing practices to prevent future outbreaks.

This is a common question for Winston Salem lawns. Insect damage, like from grubs or chinch bugs, often causes grass to wilt, turn brown, and pull up easily from the soil, as roots are eaten. Fungal disease typically shows as spots, rings, or patterns on the blades themselves. A professional inspection is the best way to be sure. At South Deep Creek, we perform thorough checks to pinpoint the exact cause—whether insect or disease—and apply the precise, effective treatment needed.

Prevention is key in Winston Salem. We focus on building a strong, healthy lawn that naturally resists pests and disease. Our core recommendations include deep, infrequent watering in the morning, mowing at the proper height for your grass type, and implementing a seasonal fertilization and aeration schedule. We also provide preventative fungicide and insect control applications timed to our local climate cycles, stopping problems before they start and saving you time and money in the long run.
