Brown patch is a turf disease that commonly affects lawns in Texas. It is caused by Rhizoctonia solani, a fungus that naturally exists in the soil and becomes active when temperatures are warm and humidity is high. That's why you'll often see this disease affecting lawns in mid to late summer. This disease can be identified by brown patches forming on your lawn. The patches can range from a few inches to several feet in diameter and will continue to spread if not treated, causing significant damage to your turf.

If you think your lawn has brown patch, call a professional lawn care company.
