Cutworms
These grubby-looking, plain insects are typically identified by curling up when disturbed, resembling a “C” shape.
Cutworms have various species, ranging in color from brown or black to pink or white.
Cutworms Can Ruin Your Lawn
Cutworms can be very destructive insects, particularly on golf courses and other highly maintained turf areas. They feed on several kinds of grass, but most commonly on Kentucky Bluegrass and Bentgrass. Cutworm-damaged spots look like smaller round dead areas and can persist for several weeks.
Say Goodbye to Cutworms
Grass damage can occur at any time from late May through growing season, but is most obvious in June through August when temperatures are highest and cool season grasses are not growing fast.
