EVERYONE needs to be on the look out for armyworms in your lawn right now!
It's looking like this is going to be a bad year for armyworms as we have had over twenty calls about them in the last 24 hours…so they are here and active RIGHT NOW.
Armyworms emerge when the temperatures are right to FEED ON YOUR LAWN. Whether bermuda or st. augustine... if they go untreated, they will destroy a lawn in a matter of days.
Armyworms are easy to identify, they are a caterpillar with green and/or brown stripes that grown to about an inch long.
If you have armyworms, you need to get a bifenthrin application down yourself or by a professional ASAP. You can find bifenthrin products in most garden centers.
If you don't have armyworms right now, make sure you stay on the look out for the next 10 days or so. They can literally show up overnight, so do not assume you are in the clear if you do not see them right now!
Check your lawn!
