Lawn Fungus Treatment

Protect Your Lawn From Disease and Restore Healthy, Green Growth

Fungal diseases can spread quickly and cause serious damage to lawns, especially during warm, humid weather or periods of heavy rain. Brown spots, thinning patches, and irregular discoloration are often signs that fungus is beginning to take hold. J. Andrews Landscaping provides professional lawn fungus treatment tailored to the Lake Norman climate. Our team identifies the problem, applies targeted treatments, and helps restore the health and appearance of your lawn.

Fast action makes all the difference when fungus appears.

What Causes Lawn Fungus

Several environmental factors create ideal conditions for fungal growth in our region. Your lawn may be especially prone to disease when:

  • Soil stays moist for long periods
  • Heat and humidity rise during summer
  • Grass is cut too short
  • Thatch or debris traps moisture
  • The lawn experiences stress from drought or poor nutrition
  • Watering is done late in the day

Once fungus begins to spread, professional treatment is the most effective way to stop it.

Common Lawn Diseases We Treat

The Lake Norman area sees several types of fungus that can quickly impact lawns. We commonly diagnose and treat:

  • Brown patch
  • Dollar spot
  • Rust fungus
  • Leaf spot
  • Large patch
  • Fairy ring
  • Pythium blight

Each type behaves differently and requires a specific treatment plan to prevent ongoing damage.

Signs Your Lawn May Have Fungus

Fungal problems often look similar to drought or nutrient stress, which is why professional identification is important. You may need treatment if you see:
  • Circular or irregular brown patches
  • Grass blades turning yellow or dark brown
  • Spots or lesions on individual blades
  • Thinning areas that continue to expand
  • Slimy or darkened patches after rain
  • Discoloration that spreads from morning dew
If the lawn looks worse each day, fungus is often the reason.
