Lawn Disease & Fungus Control in Richvale, Fairview, TN

Most Richvale homeowners think their grass is dying from heat or drought when those brown patches show up in July. They respond by turning up the irrigation, but that actually makes the problem worse. In Middle Tennessee, our subtropical humidity means grass sits in dew for up to 12 hours a night. That constant moisture, combined with summer temperatures, creates the perfect environment for fungal disease. When you water more, you increase spore production and spread the infection downhill through your yard.

I do not believe in "tiered" service plans where fungicides are an optional add-on. Many companies sell a cheap base plan without fungicides, wait for your lawn to die, and then try to charge you double to fix the damage. I find that unethical. The label for these products directs us to apply them preventively, and that is exactly how I operate. I start my fungicide applications in May, well before the damage begins. By managing the disease early, your lawn doesn't have to waste its energy fighting fungus. This leaves more resources for the grass to handle heat, foot traffic from summer BBQs, and occasional irrigation skips. I include fungicides in every single plan I provide because in Fairview, it is not a matter of if you will get fungus, it is a matter of when.
