Armyworms

Lawn care companies all over Northeast Ohio are receiving calls and emails about Armyworms (Spodoptera frugiperda, family Noctuidae) and are causing substantial injury to turfgrass. These pesky larvae are not typically found in our area. However, this season’s weather has brought them to Northeast Ohio.

Armyworms Can Ruin Your Lawn

Home lawn recovery also involves watering to keep the crowns hydrated as well as fall fertilizer applications to support the regrowth of the blades. Fortunately, your fertilizer applications will help with this by slowly releasing nitrogen to support turfgrass growth over a longer period.

End The Battle With Armyworms

If you think you may have armyworms in your lawn, you can spot test the area. Mix a large pitcher of both dish soap and warm water and pour over a couple of affected areas. Wait about 5 minutes and observe if you see any Armyworms coming to the surface.
