Effective Lawn Pest, Disease, and Weed Control for a Healthy Lawn

Protect your turf from damaging grubs, fungal diseases, and invasive weeds with our expert treatment services across Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, and Woodford.

Common Lawn Pests in South East Queensland

Lawn pests such as grubs and armyworms can cause significant damage by feeding on grass roots and blades, leading to thinning, brown patches, and turf death if untreated.

  • White Grubs: These larvae feed on grassroots and cause turf to lift and die. Early detection and treatment are essential.
  • Armyworms: Caterpillars that can rapidly defoliate lawns, especially in warmer months.
  • Other Insects: Lawn moths, billbugs, and other pests can also affect turf health.

Common Lawn Diseases

Fungal diseases thrive in humid and wet conditions common in Brisbane and Sunshine Coast regions:

  • Brown Patch: Circular patches of dead or discoloured grass caused by fungi in hot, wet weather.
  • Dollar Spot: Small, silver dollar-sized spots that merge to damage lawns, common during cooler, damp seasons.
  • Red Thread: Whitish or pinkish threads appear on grass blades, weakening turf.
  • Pythium Blight: Rapid turf death in hot, wet conditions, often near irrigation zones.
