Ryder Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Army worm have been striking lawns on the lower North Shore. I treated 3 neighbouring properties last week. If your lawn is looking a bit brown, short and weeds really standing out, you may have them. A moth lays the eggs.that grow into caterpillars. Look for chewed leaves and small green droppings below in the thatch. If you have them you need to spray with Baythroid as directed or you won't have a lawn over winter.
