How to Identify & Treat Fairy Ring Lawn Disease
Mushrooms occur naturally in lawns across Texas, especially when we’ve had a spell of wet weather. This lawn disease is called a fairy ring. Most of the time, homeowners can’t stand the sight of these mushrooms in their lawns, so they choose to rake them up, knock them over or plow through them with their mower.
What Is Fairy Ring Lawn Disease?
What Damage Does Fairy Ring Cause to a Lawn
Sometimes, the fungus’ mycelia gets so dense that water has difficulty flowing through the soil, which causes the grass inside the fairy ring to turn brown and die. The mycelia can also deplete the soil’s nutrients, leaving less for the grass to use. Several fungal lawn diseases are associated with fairy rings, which is bad news for your lawn.
