Product Information

Since your lawn grass grows outside, you don’t always have full control over how much water it receives. For instance, during long periods of rain, plus an improper water drainage caused by poor landscape grading, your lawn is the proper environment for the development of harmful fungal pathogens. The fungal diseases of lawns are caused by several different fungus-like organisms and pathogens such as Pythium aphanidermatum, Rhizoctonia solani, Clarireedia homoeocarpa, Microdochium nivale, Magnaporthe poae or Ophiosphaerella korrae. Laundry soap gets rid of mushrooms and other fungi by destroying the hyphae so that mycelium can’t grow. However, it’s better to use a gentle dish soap rather than a powerful laundry detergent, since the latter will cause more noticeable damage to your desired turfgrass. On the other side of the coin, you have Insecticidal soap that doesn’t contain any of these surfactants. Insecticidal soaps use a combination of natural oils and fats along with an alkali (commonly sodium hydroxide). The downside is they don’t kill fungi and will just ruin your lawn’s natural ecosystem by killing helpful insects.

A beautiful lawn represents for most of us more than a patch of grass. It’s a way of showing off in front of our neighbors and friends and a sign that we are hardworking people. Spectracide Immunox Fungus Plus can prevent and control a large spectrum of grass diseases caused by fungi. Plant spacing is more important.

Entry of Fungus Heritage Granular Fungicide is more designed toward industrial usage and for large lawn areas of parks, athletic fields, recreational zones, or green fields around residential places.

These are, which I consider, some of the best and most effective fungicides for lawns. How to apply the fungicide?

In some cases, a general fungicide will do the job. Yet, since we want to make sure that the fungicide we choose will not do more harm than good, I advise you to only use fungicides that explicitly mention that can be used for lawns or turfs.Healthy lawns need approximately an inch of water weekly, but the sooner the grass dries up after watering, the less chance it has of developing lawn fungus. By watering early in the morning, your lawn has the entire day to dry. Sharpen your mower blades. This fungus overwinters on debris and infected leaves so remove them from the field. There are different chemical or plant fungicides available in the market. The name is indicating disease. Powdery mildew is actually a symptom associated with fungus. There is some closely related fungus known as powdery mildew fungus. So fungus affecting hibiscus may not be the same effecting phlox.
