Preventative Fungicides

Preventative Fungicides

We Offer Curative Fungicides
Fescue lawns are susceptible to a fungus in the spring and summer called Brown Patch.  When we have moisture and humidity in the overnight hours the fungus can spread quickly and damage or kill fescue turf.  An effective way to stop the fungus is to apply a fungicide before it occurs.  Preventative fungicides last 30 days.  Applications should take place May-Aug to protect your lawn.  We also offer curative fungicides but it is much easier to prevent than cure.  Call our office today to get on our regular fungicide treatment schedule!

ASK JOE THE LANDSCAPER
Joe Morris is QCLL agronomic guru.  Once a month he answers FAQ sent in by QCLL Customers.  To submit your question for Joe, just email him at info@queencitylawn.com and he will be glad to give you his expert advice.

QCLL Customer:  Is fungicide 100% effective in preventing brown patch?
Joe the Landscaper: Nothing is 100% effective in preventing fungus.  However the success rate is over 90%.  We are so confident that if you get brown patch while you are on our 4 month preventative fungicide program, we will apply curative fungicides to stop the fungus at no additional charge to you.

QCLL Customer:  Is the mosquito control program harmful to me or my pets?
Joe the Landscaper: As with all our products, the products in our mosquito control program are EPA approved.  There are no known harmful chemicals to humans or pets.  I have a wife, 2 children, and 2 dogs and have used these products at my house for over 10 years.  The only thing that I have noticed is the lack of mosquitoes.  Please call the office to inquire.
