Lawn Disease & Fungus Control in Mount Pleasant, TN

I see this happen every year across Mount Pleasant. You notice the grass thinning, you see those ugly brown patches spreading, and your first instinct is to turn the irrigation system up or drag the hose out. That is exactly what the fungus wants you to do. In our subtropical climate, the grass stays damp from the morning dew for twelve hours every night, and once the overnight temperatures stay above seventy-five degrees in June, your lawn becomes a breeding ground for disease. Adding more water to an already sick plant just acts like an incubator for spores, and because the water runs downhill, you are essentially spreading the infection to every healthy blade of grass in the lower parts of your yard. Most other companies in the area treat this as a secondary problem. They wait until the damage is already visible in July to tell you about it, and then they try to sell you a expensive curative treatment that only covers the symptoms. I do things differently. As a UT Certified Horticulturist, I know that if we wait until you can see the damage, it is already too late to prevent the stress. By starting our fungicide program in May, before the heat sets in, we stop the infection before it starts. When your lawn stops wasting energy fighting off a constant fungal assault, it suddenly has the strength to handle the other stresses of a Mount Pleasant summer. It becomes significantly more drought tolerant, it handles foot traffic from backyard barbecues much better, and it can survive the occasional mechanical stress of being mowed a bit too short. I do not offer a low-tier plan that excludes these treatments because I know that in this climate, fungal disease is not a matter of if, but when. It is the final stress factor that pushes a struggling lawn over the edge come mid-summer. Whether you are living in one of the traditional properties near the Rattle and Snap landmark or along the local roads leading out into the county, your lawn needs this layer of protection from the start. I include this coverage in every single plan, ensuring that we are following the label requirements precisely to keep your grass healthy throughout the entire season.
