🚨 Armyworms are on the move! 🚨

Local news is reporting increased sightings in our area, and these pests can destroy lawns almost overnight.

If you notice patches of grass that look brown, chewed, or thinning quickly, it could be armyworms at work. 🐛

Check out this article from Fox 2 St. Louis for more info, and keep an eye on your lawn! Early detection is the key to stopping major damage.

📞 Midwest Turf Management is here to help—call us if you think you might have armyworms.

Armyworms don’t always make it to the St. Louis region but when they do, the damage can be significant and costly.

🌱 Why do w**ds pop up between treatments? 🌱

Even with regular herbicide applications, new w**ds can still germinate between visits. Most w**d control products target what’s already there—but seeds in the soil can sprout anytime conditions are right.

Rain, heat, and sunlight can all encourage new growth in just days. That’s why we schedule routine applications and offer service calls as needed to keep your lawn looking its best. 💪🌿

📅 Consistent care = consistent results!

🌾 Why Won’t This Grass Die?! 😤

If you've been battling Bermudagrass in your lawn, you're not alone!

Bermuda is one of the most aggressive and stubborn grasses out there. It spreads by underground roots and above-ground runners, making it incredibly hard to eliminate—especially from fescue lawns. Even when it looks dead, it's often just waiting to bounce back.

💡 Unfortunately, there’s no quick fix. Total elimination usually requires multiple treatments, persistence, and patience over the course of years—sometimes even a full lawn renovation.

If you’re tired of fighting it, we can help you manage Bermuda with a healthy overseeding and fertilization plan this fall. 💪🌱

🌱 W**ds Popping Up? It’s Not Just You!

🌦️ This summer’s wild weather across the St. Louis metro area has made it tough for pre-emergent lawn treatments to hold their ground. Here's why:

✅ Soil temps spiked early, triggering w**d growth before treatment
✅ Heavy rain or dry spells threw off herbicide timing
✅ Fluctuating weather stretched w**d germination windows
✅ Turf stress opened up gaps—hello crabgrass!

💡 Want to fix it for next season?
💧 Water in treatments with ½ inch within a few days
🌿 Boost turf thickness with mowing, fertilizing & overseeding

🌾 Got a Weird, Bright Green W**d Taking Over Your Lawn? It might be Nutsedge — and it's no joke! 😤

Nutsedge (a.k.a. “nutgrass”) is not your typical w**d. It grows faster than your grass, thrives in wet soil, and spreads underground with sneaky little tubers that make it nearly impossible to pull out. 😱

👎 It’s hard to kill.
👎 It laughs at regular w**d killer.
👎 And yes... it will come back stronger if you just mow it.

✅ But the good news? We know how to fight it.

At MTM, we use professional-grade treatments specifically designed for stubborn w**ds like yellow and purple nutsedge — common invaders in the Southern Illinois and Metro East St. Louis area.

📆 Now is the perfect time to take action while it’s actively growing.

📲 Call us today or message us to schedule a free lawn assessment. Let’s get your lawn back to thick, green, and w**d-free! 💪🌱
