- Moths in the lawn indicate a possible outbreak of sod webworm, armyworm or cutworm and here are the ways to identify them and choose a product to apply. In fact, this year, 2020, they are worse than I have seen in a long time.

What about the battery sprayer? Please and thank you
pleeease do a video on Take All Patch fungus
over the years...we've usually gone with granular apps when we go for "preventative" modes of action, and go with wettable/liquid spray when treating in "curative" modes of action looking for "quick knock down" of lawn/landscape pests... what is the applicator's comfort zone? these chemicals are quite safe and effective when used correctly....
Thanks for the video - what is the ingredient list for the Bio-Advance granules you show? I can find the product at many stores, but can't see what ingredients are in the product.
Need to add a video for lawn recovery after sod webworms damage and insecticide sprayed. Thank you.
I concur
I love how you're absolutely CRAZY for your lawn and everything grass related...I love it!
Allyn, you’re a genius. I just caught up on a few of your recent postings. I’m in Florida just south of you. I always catch up on tips for Pro Vista which I put in last year. The series of applying three different products with three different application methods is exactly what folks need. Homeowners need options. This series provides that and they were extremely helpful. Your instructions keep getting better all the time. Thank you !
This has been a part of the lawn care I have neglected last season, but this year I am ready to spray just waiting for some sunny day here in PNW.. Thanks for the video.
Just enjoyed the mow, added picture to my yard mastery app journal. I was just thinking what are these months and you just loaded this video 🤙🧠🌊... Thanks Al
good stuff! thank you for using the app too!
I knew I liked you for some reason, nice hat! - A Montanan living in Texas and subscribing to your warm season grass care routine.
literally just found the same damage in my lawn today! Great timing! Great Video as always Allyn!
Time to spray and pray! 👊
Gooooood Sunday tubers!😎👊🍺
good call on promoting "Brian's lawn" he's a couple miles up the highway from us...Brian's the kind of person we would've hired for our company, knowing he would branch out on his own sooner than later, but he would be the positive influence for everybody else in the company we all need... So I follow Brian more for the motivation than the knowledge...although old dogs need to find new tricks too! I've been around in the "green Industry" for too long, lol...40 years, and find that you and guys like Brian make it easier for the lay person to understand...therefore our customers and our new employees can benefit from the info you've put out on YT! thanx to The lawn Care Nut for the educational info... to all that want to DIY, follow the label's direction completely, to avoid the dreaded "due to over exposure" problems that come with handling the "ides" of lawn and landscape care, there are absolutely NO SHORT CUTS! retired owner, Aspen Lawn-Scape
This was a great informative video.
“Evil larval children.” Priceless! 🤣
Brian is a badass, I’m just a home owner and I still follow his stuff.
yeah he is a super motivating dude for sure!
Great video Allyn perfect timing too.
Thanks brother! 👊
Awesome video this is what i emailed you about a few weeks ago this really helped alot thanks man see you in the lawn!!!
awesome, glad it helped you !
Thanks so much for all of this wonderful information. Sod worms have completely destroyed my lawn.
Fabulous video. No kidding. FABULOUS!!!!!
Thank you lawn Care nut coming from Lowell Indiana I get the web worms every year just soon as I start my lawn mower the birds are on top of my fence waiting for the moths thanks for the great video keep up the good work
You know what's interesting about that? The first photo I showed of damage after lawns come out of dormancy - in the video clip from 2012 - those lawns are in Lowell. 👊
Thanks for your great advice and explaining instructions... great music & video too !!!
thank you! glad you liked it!
Very informative video. Thanks a lot
Love the Florida beach clouds. Great video.
yeah, super puffy.
The music 🎶 at the end is good stuff! 👍🏼
Great videos...And GREAT outro music!
I don’t know what that song at the end it but it’s got me movin’
me too!
Great info as always. Sprayed and prayed with Bifen 2 weeks ago after seeing those moths flying around . Round two soon. Think I'm going with granular next.
it's good to switch things up so you don't get bored lol 👊
Always wondered wth those moths were doing... thanks for explaining!
Thoughts on doing a video talking about "what to wear while enjoying the mow in 100 degree temps 🥵" ? Had to stop and take "a couple two tree" breaks today due to the heat...
Thank you very great info.
Nice plug for Brian... been subscribed to him for a while! BTW, I admire your ability to reach into a lawn and find the one blade of grass with bird poop on it. 😅
😂😂😂
Thank you for addressing the spray vs granular. I cant pump the sprays.
Allyn, thanks for another great video. I would like to see more on mole crickets. I have a problem with them, centipede lawn, located near Myrtle beach SC
I used beneficial nematodes for our mole cricket problem (also near MB, SC). The beneficial nematodes don't kill the mole crickets they kill their food which cause the mole crickets to leave (or die from starvation - I don't really care which, all I want is them gone).
Applied grainular Spectracide insect killer last month. Used the grainular as I have more experience with it over liquid, but your the difference is so obvious as you showed on your test. Might need to spray liquid next time.
I miss your podcasts!
Good stuff man. I like to spray for sod webworm just as the sun is going down or dusk in the morning, Hit them while they are out.
That's a very good strategy for sure. 🤘👊
Great video Allyn! So many folks in my lawn groups deal with these fellas. They are my enemy. Two things I saw- your bird poop may be bird poop, but look in that area next time and try to find a couple more for me. That appears to be what we call window feeding, where an insect eats through one side the leaf and leaves a 'window,' converse to hole feeding that is more common. Two, SW eggs are laid in flat clusters on the leaf are are clear/creamy white. They later turn an amber color. The twitter photos provided looks like dried frass. In really bad outbreak areas you get a dusty appearance through the entire area from dried grass particles. Cheers!
Lambda and gamma cyhalothrin are basically the same in case anyone is wondering. Your timing couldn't be any better. Thanks for yet another great video. Dropped that silver bag 3 days ago. As a side note those yard mastery plugs are the best looking parts of my lawn. Have no idea what they do them, but it works. 😎
steroids in the soil lol 🤘
@@Thelawncarenut ahhhh they're pumping iron 😂 .
Thanks for the great info yet again. My ears perked up toward the beginning when you said, "Thats some wild Bermuda but don't worry about that. I can take care of that later." My south Florida St Aug gets this from the neighbor's crappy lawn and from what I've read it cant be controlled with herbicides. Curious as to your method. Thanks
That back lawn there is a new type of St Aug called "ProVista" and it is glyphosate tolerant - here is some info czcams.com/video/XkY42ObbXFc/video.html I highly recommend if the problem gets bad, resod with ProVista. It's also what we put in over at the Freedom Factory.
Milo brings in Moths, I had them in the hopper when i used my spreader. Lawn still looks good man!
I've never heard that one before.
Great video Allyn. Thanks for reminding me I needed to order some Bifen a week ago...🤣
time to spray and pray bro!
Love the Mike Myers “Simon” homage!
Nice Salsa music in the end brother🕺🏻🕺🏻🇵🇷✊🏽😁. Talstar is great stuff, mixed with a little permethrin every 21 days on the lawn and bugs will be rioting🐞🕷🦗🦟🐛next door!
hoorah! I love salsa music!
Wow thank you very much for you time to make this great video. Zlata Montgomery
Great video Mr Nut. In a few shots I thought you were running a sandal shop out of your garage.
I do have an over abundance of flips 😂😂😂
We also have them here in the uk. Funny really as never seen huge damage.. or so I thought! This year the lawns are suffering quite a bit. We dont have many pesticides left as such nowadays so irs down to other methods
I have been using Bifin IT For the last 6 years. I never have any problems with pests. Great stuff.
Agreed, cheap and effective.
Is it good for 90 days in the lawn after you spray it?
With all the rain here in SC we are seeing fungus gnat's. So few people know how to deal with them.
Allyn very interesting comment you made at the end that some lawn care business owners get good tips from you and apply it in there day to day and even train their employees. This is a question now don’t they have to be licensed to be applying any type of chemicals to customer properties? I just know here in Florida you would need a L&O license to apply to customer properties. I’m a 20+ year GHP CPO in florida. Thanks for your continued videos it’s a learning time that I really love. Oh and missed your mow today booo lol 😆. Have a great coming up week.
yes for sure they have to work under someone who is licensed here in Florida but they can still learn from my vids. I don't give them the license to spray, just the thinking and the why behind it.
Great video and I like the detail! I’ve used several of these for my moth infestation. I’m in Bradenton FL and this is the first time I’ve had any issues with moths. Glad I’m getting to it early. I’ve put down a liquid application plus the granular. Have not noticed any effect with these damn moths. I have treated my lawn about a month ago with the complete granular and hopefully that will kill off the larve. I got some Bifen 7.9% and will put that down on Saturday. If there’s anything else I need to be doing please share! I was wondering if the moths originated from me watering my lawn daily because of the fertilizer/insecticide I put down. Hummm….Thanks!
Great 👍 and very informative video 📹 as always. I normally use both Granular and liquid. For the liquid Insecticide is it better to spray in the morning, or in the evening? I've done both, and have seen the sod web worms in the morning, but the majority of other insects in the evening
I did the bioadvanced complete insect killer a week and four days ago, bought three bags for my area since I have about 20,000sq ft of lawn. I followed the instructions as it states on the bag, now I have more moths flying around my grass!!
I had the same problem with my lawn. I'm going to buy a bird house and hopefully the bird that moves in will take care of the moths!
Kenji great idea! I did another spray on hose treatment the day after I posted that video and I still have moths!! I have no idea if they’re flying over from our neighbors who don’t do anything to care for their lawns. Is that even possible ? If so, I’m screwed!!
Pushing hard for that Costa sunglasses sponsorship!
😂😂😂🤘
Hi there, I'm a new subscriber. I really love your channel. Thank you for the excellent content! I was wondering if you have any advice for getting rid of wolf spiders? Where I live there are literally HUNDREDS of them!
Bifenthrin that I showed here will kill them pretty quick.
Always enjoy your videos. I just started seriously taking care of the lawn. Do you have any tips for getting rid of moss? I'm in Zone 8B with a very rainy climate.
It's tough for sure. Biggest thing is to dry up any area where water stands and get rid of trees that block sunlight. Iron treatments can help too.
Great info. I have problems with the moths also and didn't know what products to use on the lawn, so this video is very helpful. Will Bifen harm the lawn?
won't harm the turf so you are good to go anytime you are ready.
A product I’ve discovered to prevent the stage of larvae to worm, coregan.
I spray Bifen for the skeeters all summer long. Spray it under the leaves of shrubs, under tables, chairs.. any UNDER surface within 50 ft of my sitting areas outside gets sprayed. It reduces them by 80% or more for nearly 3 weeks.
agreed, I do that too. spray it all over everything lol
@@Thelawncarenut it's like Frank's Red Hot Sauce.. "I put that ____ on everything!"
I've been using Scott's GrubEx now for several years in late Spring and have had pretty good success. I still see those "dive bombing birds" that fly all around when I mow here in Minnesota (sparrows ????) and see a few moths here and there, but I haven't had any lawn damage. My Japanese Beetle infestation has really declined since I started using GrubEx. I just worry that I might be taking out earthworms or other good soil bugs or bacteria, etc...
For those who want something milder and won’t hurt the good bugs there is Spinosad and Bacillus Thuringiensis
sounds like a party!
@@Thelawncarenut sound like a 70's duo
The first time I spread granular Triazicide, I ended up with poison-smelling, brown, powdery residue on my shoes and pant legs after I was finished. I could smell the poison on my shoes months later. Now, I use zip-up overshoes and coveralls.
These army worms, here in Tulsa, destroyed my entire beautiful yard in 3 days. Starting over this fall. I sprayed with my leftover diazinon. It's a freak year for us.
Kudos to the Simon intro.
Next video we learn how to "execute" our bug control strategy. I see what you did there. : )
😂😂😂
Had an infestation of Eastern Tent Caterpillars and sprayed down some Talstar Pro. 6 hours later....not one on my house. Haven’t had any problems with any insects inside nor outside the house.
for sure! it works great on all the bugs!
I found that if you turn the water on 1/3 to 1/2 the bottle will cover 4500sf.
Yup, I'm going to have nightmares tonight again.
let's hope not! 😂
First
Awesome music ending
gotta get that blood pumping!
Today being the first day of fall and I’m in Utah and plan to dethatch, aerate, level with sand, overseed and starter fert within the next week or two. I’ve got moths, nats and tiny flys all over my lawn. Should I treat for them before or after my overseeding project? Thank you in advance.
LCN should link up with smarter everyday and make a video.
If we've had sod webworm damage in the past do you recommend applying insect control every year preemptively? Or wait until we see evidence of activity? They seem to do damage quickly.
Just threw some insecticide down yesterday for this very reason. Went with a granular though cause it was on clearance. $5 for the bag.
good find!
dude that's so cheap holy crap. At walmart? or home depot? or Lowes?
@@lifeisgood070 Lowe's.. bought a few bags of it.
What time of the day is best to spray liquid
What do you do about fire ant mounds without killing your hard earned grass?
3:53 Nice Mike Myers SNL reference -- bum-looker.
🤘👊
For my lawn here in Northwest Indiana, the grass blades turn brown. I'm thinking whatever i've got is eating the roots. Thoughts?
What rate do you recommend when using Bifen? Per 1k? And how often at your advised rate? Thank you!
Huh. I got some bifenthrin a month ago to do perimeter general spray like you showed last year. And the moths scattered as i sprayed. Maybe i got that problem too.
just extend it out on the lawn - all good! It's a very versatile insect control for sure.
Should you do applications like this as a prevention instead of finding a culprit insect?
any weed killers that are safe for your shrubs in flower beds ?
I been following you for years now.Would you ever come to Houston. Help Englishmen out on his lawn
Never been there - seems like it may be hotter there than here lol
What sand is good for Florida st.augustine lawn to add to level mason sand or white sand?
I thought about getting onto the lawn care business. But not mowing, just weed and feed spray truck or core aerator service. Any advice?
After my last few mows i have noticed the next day there would be a good amount of pupa on my garage floor near my mowing shoes. Any ideas there??
AllynI know this video is a little older but I overseeded my tall fescue in Indiana, and I'm seeing moths flying around and little.mounds of loose dirt. Is it safe to follow by this strategy within a week or so of overseeding? Thanks, John
That old music though
Hey L.CN in the video you said something about wild bermuda and taking care of it.. any chance you could do a video on that?? I have it in my lawn and have tried in vain to eject it
I have a grass in back called ProVista czcams.com/video/XkY42ObbXFc/video.html. it is glyphosate tolerant and that kills bermuda that invades.
@@Thelawncarenut Thank you for the reply.. Looks like i'll be ordering some of that grass the wild bermuda has done a number on my St Aug and looks like poop
Hey can I throw diseased grasses in compost? What temp kills diseases?
Do you ever fish in the pond behind your house? If so you should make a video of it cause I notice your pfg gear
I don't fish back there but my neighbor does and he regularly pulls 6lb bass out of that pond.
The Lawn Care Nut Nice I love fishing and my yard keep the extremely Educational videos coming 👍
Can you treat brand new sod ?? I just got it installed 5 days ago 😢😢
I’m new to Florida. We just added a Florida room. The adult moth just showed up on the long blades of grass in our yard. We live rural so I don’t care about them being on the law. What I do care about is the adults are in droves inside my Florida room. Can anyone tell me, can they cause damage in there?
If I pump spray Bifen, will it kill the moths or just the larva and worms?
Come on Allyn! Show us your interpretive dance version!
😂😂😂
I put down some Bifen l/p granules about 1.5-2 weeks ago. I hadn’t watched your video then and didn’t know I needed the liquid too. I saw more moths yesterday and did Bifen I/t liquid last night and this morning I still see some moths. Do I wait the 5-6 days before doing the liquid again or should I do the liquid again every time I see the adult moths? Or does the liquid take a day or two to kill the adults? Sorry for so many questions.
I was going to order The Bayer Bio, even had it my cart was intending on returning the Spectricide that is still in my trunk. Then I read the reviews on the Lowes site made by others who used the Bio.. only 50% recommended it and someone said it increased the population of grubs..
When do the moths quit- I live in tallahassee and i am still seeing moths and damage from sod webworms. Also concerned about using chemicals because i have a well and pets.
can I put it down heavy or more often, like every week or so if it rains?
Then in the morning the grass gets all slimy and then just dies in huge patches
How fast does it work? I sprayed the Bifen last night and found 12 worms alive and well this morning. When can I spray again?
Woooo wooo woo how do you “take care of wild Bermuda”????
That grass back there is ProVista so it is glyphosate tolerant and I use that to kill the bermuda that invades.
The Lawn Care Nut that’s what I thought because that’s all that kills that
@@Thelawncarenut Have you tried Prograss to suppress wild bermudagrass in St Augustine?
Allyn, you got any recommendations for tapeworms?😏😉😁
haha, maybe put a piece of sharp cheddar on your tongue and see if he comes up to get it, then grab him with a pair tongues. 😜
What can I use in place of Bifen I/T, I can’t get it in NY?
How long does the Bifenthrin 7.9 control sod webworms in the lawn?
