The Hidden Threat of Red Thread (And Why It’s So Common in Connecticut Lawns)
Your lawn looks thin, patchy, and a little… pink?
If you’ve noticed red or pinkish fibers threading through your grass, you’re likely dealing with Red Thread, a lawn disease that thrives in Fairfield, New Haven and Litchfield during Connecticut’s wet spring and fall seasons.
It’s easy to mistake it for poor lawn care or dry spots, but Red Thread is a real fungal problem.
We know how frustrating it is to chase symptoms without solving the root cause. At Pro Turf, we help homeowners understand what’s really going on under the surface, and how to fix it.
Here’s our 3-step plan to stop Red Thread:
- Soil Testing – Red Thread often thrives in nitrogen-poor soil. We test and adjust your nutrient levels.
- Targeted Lawn Treatments – We use a custom blend of fertilizers and fungicides that cut off the disease without harming your turf.
- Seasonal Strategy – Prevention is key. We set your lawn up to stay disease-free year-round.
Red Thread may be common in Connecticut, but it’s not unbeatable.You deserve a lawn you’re proud of, and we’re here to help you get it back.
