Here’s what lawn care looks like in Westwood:

Best Grass Types for Westwood

Westwood’s four-season climate makes cool-season grasses the top choice for lawns. Here are the best types of grasses for Westwood:

• Kentucky Bluegrass: This grass variety is a favorite for its deep blue-green color and dense growth. It's resilient and recovers well from damage.
• Perennial Ryegrass: Perennial ryegrass offers a fine texture and excellent wear resistance, making it perfect for high-traffic areas in Westwood.
• Fescues: This group includes varieties like creeping red, chewings, tall, and hard fescues, valued for their shade tolerance and low maintenance requirements.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow your lawn once weekly when spring and fall colors flourish, and turf grows. As the summer sun beats down from July through August, ease off to mowing your lawn every other week.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Westwood

In Westwood's picturesque landscapes, tiny invaders and hidden diseases can challenge lawn care. Our pros can help you get rid of them with their expertise. Be on the lookout for the following pests:

• Japanese Beetles: These beetles feed on grass and garden plants. They're particularly active in the summer and can cause significant damage if not controlled.
• Billbugs: These beetles and their larvae kill grass from the inside out.
• Brown Patch: This fungal foe thrives in the summer humidity, casting circular patches of withered grass.
• Fairy Ring: More whimsical in name than in nature, this fungal disease forms dark green circles that can eventually kill the grass, leaving behind a cursed Westwood lawn.
