Lawn
|
| Frances from the USA | "... a lawn which has died for no apparent reason. When we dug up some of the soil, there were many brown/tan coloured pupae and caterpillars. Could these be the cause of the grass dying? We now have a weedy soil area instead of a lawn." It sounds like
you have grubs 'yuk' we had the same experience. I heard it takes
a good 5 years to kill the grubs. Soon after my
husband had figured out what the problem was he was told to use
a lawn ferterlizer that had a weed/'bug' killer in it. The grass
did grow back fairly quickly but he fertlized the lawn quite often
for a few years...(following the directions on the bag). Check out
any nursery for further direction. Good luck, there is hope!. |
