As the summer heat wave continues to scorch our lawns, it's not just the sun beating down on our outdoor spaces – it's also the chinch bugs. These pests are wreaking havoc on lawns across Texas, and if left unchecked, can cause significant damage to your beautiful landscape. At Evergreen Lawn and Landscape, we're here to help you protect your lawn from these unwanted guests and ensure it remains healthy and thriving.

 

 

What are Chinch Bugs?

 

Chinch bugs are small, sucking insects that feed on the sap of grasses, causing yellowing or stippling of the leaves. They're particularly attracted to warm weather and can be found in large numbers on hot days. If you've noticed patches of yellow or dying grass in your lawn, it may be a sign of a chinch bug infestation.

 

Why are Chinch Bugs a Problem?

 

Chinch bugs can cause significant damage to your lawn, leading to:

 

  • Yellowing or dying grass

  • Thinning turf

  • Increased susceptibility to disease and pests

  • Reduced aesthetic appeal

 

If left untreated, chinch bugs can also spread disease and create an environment conducive to other pests, like ants and white grubs.
