Check lawn for sod webworms.  They damage turf by chewing on grass. Webworms are active at night. Treat effected areas and a 3-5 buffer around activity with Dylox or Bifenthrin

Hey, I like your post. Got any tips for getting rid of weeds and keeping them out? How do you get the best healthy St. Augustine lawn also?

Update! I sent my soil for a test to the University of Florida. It was interesting to say the least. I am now fertilizing my yard with a 15-0-15 fertilizer and only using half of what Scott's Bonus-S says to use on their bags and my grass is doing better than it ever has.

I'm now on a quest to conquer the weeds that are still in a battle with the St. Augustine.
