Home Lawn Problems & Solutions for ND
H1553 (Revised) Home Lawn Problems and Solutions for North Dakota Alan Zuk, Assistant Professor, Department of Plant Sciences Janet Knodel, Extension Entomologist, Department of Entomology Ron Smith, Professor Emeritus, Department of Plant Sciences Contents 2 Introduction 3 Weed Problems in Lawns 3 Broadleaf Weeds 7 Perennial Grassy Weeds 8 Annual Grassy Weeds 10 General Nonchemical Control of Lawn Weeds 11 Using Herbicides to Control Weeds 12 Turfgrass Diseases North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND 23 Turfgrass lnsects 31 Additional References Reviewed and reprinted August 2017 hile an attractive lawn can complement an equally attractive landscaping with trees and shrubs, one that is unkempt and Wweedy will be a major distraction. Indeed, a good looking lawn is as important to the total landscape picture as a shined pair of dress shoes is to formal attire. The two just naturally go together. In response to the many inquiries about home lawn care and problems, the intent of this NDSU Extension publication is to assist the homeowner first in identifying these problems and, secondly, providing advice on actions they can take to solve these problems. Our initial emphasis will be to adjust or modify cultural practices to minimize or, in some cases, eliminate the pest. We also provide options for chemical use in case the problem has not been solved. Each author has contributed to this publication based on his or her expertise: Alan Zuk on typical diseases observed on home lawns, Janet Knodel on insect problems; and Ron Smith in dealing with distractive weeds. In surveying the retail market, we noted the wide availability of combination products, with herbicides and fertilizer being the most common. -
