    Gray Leaf Spot in Georgia Turfgrass: Identification and Control

    In the state of Georgia, gray leaf spot primarily affects St. Augustinegrass and is particularly chronic and damaging in the coastal area of the state. This publication contains important information on the biology of the causal agent, detailed descriptions and photos of the disease symptoms, information on conditions favoring the disease, as well as cultural, genetic, and chemical methods of control. The publication is intended for turfgrass professionals, consultants, county faculty, homeowners, and the general public.

    Southern Chinch Bug: Biology and Management in Turfgrass

    The southern chinch bug is a serious insect pest of turfgrass, especially St. Augustinegrass, in Georgia. Bermudagrass, centipedegrass, and zoysiagrass are also attacked by southern chinch bug. Affected turfgrass can form yellow to brown patches that are sometimes mistaken as indicators of disease or drought stress. Populations of southern chinch bug can build up at the edges of these patches at over 100 individuals per square foot, which can kill the affected grass. The development of southern chinch bug in the grass can easily go unnoticed because of their small size and dark-gray color, which blends in with thatch. This resource summarizes the biology, lifecycle and management options available for southern chinch bug in Georgia.
