How to Protect Your Lawn from Chinch Bug Damage

With our recent heat and lack of significant rainfall, we see a lot of drought stress in area lawns.

Drought stress is a severe problem in and of itself, but a far more significant and real threat to your lawn is chinch bugs which can cause considerable damage to St. Augustine lawns during our summer months (and they are easy to miss.)

Chinch bugs typically start near concrete, and their damage at first appears to be a dry spot in your lawn (which is easy to miss during a hot, dry summer like we are currently experiencing.)

If left untreated, this dry spot will spread, and your lawn will be in bad shape before you know it.

The good news is that chinch bugs are easy to control if you know you have a problem, and, in this video, we’ll show you everything you need to know to keep your lawn healthy.

Chinch bugs are easy to control once spotted, and in this video, I’ll tell you what we recommend.

If you have a lawn health problem, give us a call at 972-495-6990 or email Info@VillageGreen-Inc.com for more information. With 40+ years of experience in North Texas and hundreds of satisfied customers, we know we can help with your lawn and landscape needs.

Mid-Summer Lawn Update for North Texas

In this video, Ken shares an update on what we’ve been seeing in our lawn health customer’s lawns this summer. As you might imagine, we see a lot of drought stress in area lawns. We have received many calls from people wondering what is wrong with their yard and reports of other service providers saying there are fungal issues, chinch bugs, grubs, and even army worms.

Village Green has not seen any of that yet, mainly drought stress and rabbit urine damage (made worse if the lawn isn’t being watered correctly.) I think we’ll see chinch bugs eventually this summer. You can learn more about chinch bugs by watching the [640],shadow=true,start=,stop=.

Check Out Scott & Sue’s Low Maintenance Landscape

Scott and Sue wanted an easy-to-maintain landscape with nice color, which informed our plant selections. As you’ll see in this video tour, all the plants we used are low maintenance and easy to take care of – they don’t need to be trimmed much and are both heat and cold tolerant.

Thank you, Scott, and Sue, for allowing us to work with you on your landscape and allowing us to showcase our work.

Purple Winter Creeper – One of Best Plants to use in North Texas

We get many questions from customers on what our favorite plants to use in North Texas are. So we have recorded a “Best Plants for North Texas Series.”

Today we wanted to show you one of our favorite ground covers. Purple Winter Creeper is a plant we use in our landscapes because it does fine in the shade and sun. It also fills in nicely and tends to be healthier than the popular Asian Jasmine ground cover. Another benefit is that rabbits tend to leave this Purple Winter Creeper alone (they love to eat Asian Jasmine!) Finally, as the name implies, this plant turns a beautiful purple, which adds a nice extra pop of color during winter.
