Tell your FIL to go buy an F250. It's a problem solver. You have to continue on here too? lol

i used to work for a turf company and to me it looks like army worms or grubs but probly army worms. If its an armadillo u will be able to tell they make lil holes in ur grass while looking and digging for worms. But if it is army worms they do work more in the evening and some early mornings better get em before they take over the whole lawn. im like 99% sure that u can go to a local feed store and get a chemical called Tempo it should take care of your problem. Thanks for the information, I will pass it on.

I have a Texas Dept of Agriculture ornamental and turf pesticide liscence. I specialize in turf care. If it were army worms you would know it because they would be very visable and crawling everywhere. This looks like chinch bug damage. Chinch bugs are a sucking insect. Most chinch bugs are resistant to over the counter incesticides. You will need to get something they are not resistent to such as a product that has bifenthrin in it or trichlorfon. You can get these insecticides at a John Deere/Lesco store. You will need to put it out at the 1st sign of chinch bugs ususlly in June or July and a repeat application 3 weeks later. In your case the damage is already done.

But yes, by all means treat it ASAP to stop the damage. Learn how to identify Chinch bugs as well so you will be ready for them next year.

Is there any chance he could have concrete under the spots that are turning brown. I have seen that happen.
