Lawn Disease & Fungus Control in Ashlyn, Fairview, TN

Most Ashlyn homeowners I talk to think their grass is dying from heat or drought when those brown patches appear in mid-summer. They see the damage, assume the lawn is thirsty, and turn the irrigation up. This is a mistake. In Fairview, our subtropical humidity means grass sits in dew for up to 12 hours every night. Adding more water just increases moisture on the plant, which spikes spore production and spreads the infection downhill. What you are actually seeing is fungal disease, and watering more only makes it worse.

I do not offer low-tier plans that skip fungicides. Many companies sell a cheap service and then wait for your lawn to fail so they can charge you double for a curative treatment. I find that unethical. Because I am a UT Certified Horticulturist, I follow the label, and the label says to apply preventively. My standard of care includes fungicides in every plan from the start. I begin preventative applications in May, whereas most companies wait until the damage is already visible in June. By removing the stress of disease, your lawn has more resources to handle the heavy clay soils and summer heat we deal with in Williamson County. I focus on keeping the disease population controllable so you never have to deal with fungicide-resistant strains that can ruin your turf for good.
