P&G Landscaping LLC Fungicide Program

Protect your lawn from fungus problems with the P&G Landscaping LLC Fungicide Program. Our Program consists of 3 to 5 applications of contact and systemic fungicides. The treatments are applied throughout the fungus season. These fungicide treatments, along with proper watering and mowing practices, will drastically reduce the possibility of damage being done to your turf by diseases.


Another benefit of the Preventative Fungicide Program over simply applying fungicides after the appearance of the disease is the reduction of the spread of the fungus throughout the lawn. Keep in mind that although fungicides will kill the fungus that is currently active in your lawn, they can only protect the lawn for a certain period of time.

Lawn Fungus Damage

P&G Landscaping LLC will determine the lawn fungus that is causing damage. These particular fungi that damage our lawns are parasitic and basically steal nutrients from grass and our plants, which causes the grass to decay, turn brown or in some cases die. When a fungal spore encounters a lawn condition in the right environmental conditions, a disease is likely to develop.
