Wow, I wish I would have seen this last year. I had no idea what armyworms even were. Your information was most helpful! I used Spectracide - couldn't find a lawn person in the area who was familiar with them and didn't have the preventative and/or the killer. So that's all I could find - had to do it myself but it worked!!
Have had early morning and late afternoon robins on my yard almost daily for months now. No grass damage that I can tell, and it looks like they only have earthworms in their beaks. I’ll probably put this down to be safe, though. Also, I found common Bermuda in my sod somehow so I pulled it out. Is it normal for sod to contain some common Bermuda? Quite annoying.
Hi Doc, Do you have any experience with bermuda grass mites? I think I may have a few areas infected by them. My bermuda is clumping/changing color. Can you share any treatments or experience you have please. I don't know what to do and afraid of it getting worse.
I have worms but they are not army worms. They look like fishing worms and they form tiny mounds that look like beads of dirt similar to mole crickets. I've poured soapy water over the mounds and in minutes the worms appear. I use Talstar to get rid of the mole crickets. Will Talstar work on these worms. Thanks Doc, my Tifway looks great since I have been following your calendar.
Always love your vids Doc. I've learned so much and I have one of the better lawns in my neighborhood. I'm in Newnan, Ga. by the way. I even have a couple of my neighbors watching you now as they admire the 27K sq. ft. green ocean I have ;) So for army worms double kill in or around July if detected? But for grubs double kill in the spring and fall correct? If one has to treat for army worms inbetween but also for grubs later would that be too much product in one year? Just curious.
New to NC. lived on West Coast before. My lawn has areas in my grass where it raised and almost looks like something in tunneling below and grass dies. Is this Army worms or something else. Thanks. Love the channel
DOC, commented about a week ago about my bermuda yard on the house I just bought. You told me to spray weeds, fertilize lawn, and then put out light pre emergent. I have ordered everything. It's on the way. Can I do all of this same day or should I wait a bit between all steps? Your help is greatly appreciated
thank you for this video ...at this time i still think It is still outlawed in my state to use that chemical, because the birds swarm in to eat the poisoned worms,, and the golf course i worked with ended up with a bunch of dead birds , maby they learned new math since 1991?
Hey Doc. So i just did my soil test and waiting for results. Its been raining a good amount here in NC but my soil in my entire lawn has a slippery algae on the top layer of the soil. Any experience with this. I put down a fungicide about a month ago. Im thinking about doing a bayer algae spray but im going to wait for the soil results. You think this could be due to low nitrogen or maybe low phosphorus. I might have to go with a power rake to rake it off the soil. Any help with this?
What are leaf suckers Doc ?
Thank you Doc you are always such an amazing help! I should have my 40lb bag of PGF complete any day now can’t wait to try it out. Have a great day.
Can you do a video on the maintenance of New Sod? Or a calendar for newly laid sod?
Ouch, we have a cat that roams our fenced in back yard. What to do?
Is this process good for all types grass? I have St. Augustine…
Pgf complete is not sold in California. Is grow power the same?

What do you recommend for killing gophers and moles?
Thanks Doc,that's a very good information.
I'm going to do the soapy water and see if any army worms pop out of my grass.👍
What state are you living? I live in southern California. I have a paspalum lawn. Will this work?

1st!! Thank you so much for the video Doc!! Learned a lot

Thanks Doc for your video’s been learning a lot (New Home owner)
I was wondering if the double kill is safe for bees?
Right on time Doc!! Thanks!!
Great advice doc 👍👍

Did some research and it's probably Voles :(
Hey Doc! I have Army Worms... I ordered Duocide and PGF complete.. can I put them down together?
Sorry, I meant grubs, not army worms..

I also got the DuoCide for insects. Can I apply that to the lawn when I do all these other steps. Just don't want to over do it at first.
Thanks. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Good info. Thx Doc
You couldn’t have picked a prettier backdrop with the new fence.

Thanks Doc :-)
Permethrin is/was used in bug dope for people, DEET was the good one.
Permethrin and DEET are not the same products.
Very off topic, but why are you growing out the beard? Not judging just curious.🤔😂
I do the chicken feed and I get flys like crazy afterwards :)
Woof
