Our neighbors to the west and our BrightView team has raised the alarm about armyworms appearing in our immediate area, destroying lawns virtually overnight. Here’s a note from our BrightView team:
Armyworms are establishing a strong presence in the Dublin area. I was out in your neighborhood and saw a few spots that may be affected already. I found armyworms in Weybridge West so I wanted to alert you of the possibility of them affecting your neighborhood as well. We can treat and kill them and the sooner we react the better. Once they have killed areas in the turf, that area will have to be aerated and seeded.
The Weybridge Board is working to authorize a treatment for armyworms as soon as possible, for a minor additional expense that will not increase dues or create any additional fees for residents.
