Fertilizer?

No I am not talking about the stuff that comes out of a politician's mouth in Washington DC, although I did see a rant this week that reminded me that some of the people in DC enjoy their TV time a wee bit too much. I am talking about the stuff we throw on our grass.

I was listening to a local radio program, it is on Saturday mornings and they were discussing what to do, when the heat cranks up for your lawn. We all know that the mid 90s will return, sometime, but they said we really need to look at our lawns, daily. Why? Because with the rain, the heat and the organisms, there are changes every day in our lawns.

The mentioned a chinch bug control called Arena, see more here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znEUMzXLIjw , which works well and controls the Chinch bug, which can decimate a St. Augustine lawn in a short amount of time. I'd never heard of it, I was amazed of what it can do. Very little cost for controlling these nuisances and control for 2-3 months. Let me know how it works for you.
