Pythium Blight Attacks Salt Lake Lawns
Kennewick, WA (PRWEB) July 14, 2017 -- The current high-humid overnight temperatures in the Salt Lake Valley provide perfect growing conditions for Pythium blight lawn disease. Pythium blight is a fungus that can kill lawns in as little as 24 hours.
Dead spots and white mold are indicators of the disease. If a homeowner suspects the lawn is infected, they should call a lawn care professional right away as immediate treatment is recommended to protect the lawn.
There are steps that homeowners can take to limit the risk of Pythium blight attacks. According to Nicole Barrett, Senske Services Salt Lake City Branch Manager, “limit watering to early morning hours and make sure the lawn dries out between water cycles.”
Barrett also recommends limiting watering to 3 to 4 times a week and to avoid mowing when the lawn is damp or wet.
