Here’s what lawn care looks like in Sulphur:

Best Grass Types for Sulphur

Sulphur’s mild climate and zero snowfall make it an ideal place to grow warm-season grasses. Here are some popular varieties our pros recommend:

• Bermudagrass: Known for its heat tolerance, this grass type tolerates drought and foot traffic, developing a dense turf.
• St. Augustine: This warm-season variety has a lush appearance. It also exhibits good shade tolerance and performs well in humidity.
• Zoysiagrass: This grass offers good drought resistance, heat tolerance, and a dense appearance. Meyer Zoysia or Emerald Zoysia are well-suited for the area. 
• Centipedegrass: A low-maintenance option, this variety is well-adapted to Louisiana’s acidic soils.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow weekly spring through early fall growing season and reduce the mowing frequency to every 10-14 days or as needed in the fall.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Sulphur

Damp lawns resulting from Sulphur’s monsoons attract a variety of lawn pests and diseases. Our pros will protect your lawn against:

• Chinch Bugs: When it's hot and balmy, chinch bugs will make their way to grass blades and suck the sap out of them, turning them yellow and brown.
• Grubs: These beetle larvae feed on grass roots and create brown patches of dead grass. 
• Brown Patch: A fungal disease, it leaves circular, brown patches in hot and humid weather.
• Rust: Another fungal disease, it appears as rust-colored or orange residue on grass blades.
