I love this video but what about those folks that have dogs in their backyard like I do (inside / outside). Every time I would let them in flies come in like there's no tomorrow.
I started watching your videos about 3 years ago after I got my first home. It’s very typical for people to see the marketing and go with it and not read what’s in it. Your videos are the reason I’ve read the label on every product I use or recommend. Thanks for all of the content Allyn!
Great, and useful info LCN. I, for one, have been one who has purchased lawn-care product based solely on bag image. No longer! Thank you.
Thanks to you LCN, with this video and other past videos, I now "read" bags and labels in the store. Before LCN, I looked at the pictures on the front and in the shopping cart it went.
Nice !!
Thanks for the helpful tips. Just laid down my second app of Bug B-Gon. Definitely had sod web worm and grubs present. Also, thanks for mentioning Hydretain. I am going to give it a try. Just ordered a few 15 lb bags. Can't wait to add another sweet smell of success to my lawn!!! Thanks Allyn.
Allyn love that you have the Label pdf at the bottom of each Granule Product on your site!!!!!! Awesome!!!!!
I saw the Bio Charken on the Yard Mastery App and bought a couple of bags this morning. It looks like it’s going to be a great addition to my program. I figured once the video drops it’s going to be gone. Thanks for bringing us DIYers more and more advanced products!
It's an excellent amendment for sure, glad you got some, thanks Matt!
Very informative. I have been guilty of falling for the marketing. I definitely look a little deeper now. Learning more every day! Thx Allyn!
Great video! I did learn a few things and you reminded me to check for insects on a brown spot I have in my lawn 😊
We appreciate you breaking that down for us! 👍
You know your a LCN Jr when your literally watching a LCN video, and get a notification of a new video.. 😄. I watch LCN like it's a tv show. Thanks for all your great videos, my St Augustine is the best on the block, dominating with Flagship, and Stress blend, my secret weapons. 😁
hoorah!! thanks bro!
Thanks Allyn for the video.. I did learn “two or tree” things. 😁 will definitely be looking at the labels more closely. Always learn something new from your videos. Keep it up. 👍
awesome thank you Chris!
Great information Allyn as always. 👍🏻
Great video man! Very helpful!
Just purchased the Hydretain. It's coming tomorrow, and I can't wait. I have also purchased the 7-0-0 Green Effect to add to my bio-stim pack. My lawn will be double dark very soon.
nice! that 7-0-0 is a true secret weapon!
Two reasons why I watch your videos and listen to your podcast, one is for content, the second one is for the music.
Hi from Palm Harbor! Who knew? Thanks for this video. I'm about to get medieval on these little buggers!
Love videos when you go to the store and check out store bought products in person. 👊🏼
They are fun. Keeps me on my toes to learn new things.
I'm gonna head on down to Lowe's right now to read all the labels before I forget them fancy chemicals. Thank you, Allyn!!
The one thing I've noticed in your videos is how you trim your lawn along driveway and sidewalks. Most people make sharp cuts into lawn along drive and sidewalks but yours looks very natural.
Another excellent video with great information. Heading out tomorrow to pick up BioAdvanced Grub Killer plus to ensure I don’t have an issue
Good insight, thank you!
Hey Allyn, I've been subscribed to you forever but I've never had the grass type you work worth, until now. I have beautiful KBG and I was wondering in your very early videos was that KBG in your yard? I was hoping I can use all that info to help me with my current KBG yard. It will be as if I'm watching them all over again for the first time lol.
Thanks a lot!
Allen I wanted to mention something here. Now I know why you’ve always mentioned to mow regular! Found another tip mowing my lawn I wanted to bring up here. I’ve worked out of town for quite sometime and had some professionals mowing my lawn twice a week. I have a cool season lawn here in Kentucky. To make this short I finally got back to mowing my own lawn back home so I cancelled my professional grass cutting service. I’m now back to mowing my own lawn and enjoying he mow however I have a Turf type tall fescue lawn but while mowing I’m always using investigative research. Looking at my lawn at the same time enjoying the mow! I found I have a few small patches of wild Bermudagrass in my lawn and have been treating it with ORNAMEC with Aqua Zorb. Keeps my fescue looking good while I have some on stand by to spot treat the Bermudagrass as I see it. Always checking while mowing just a tip thanks for the fantastic videos
I Have St Augustine with wild Bermuda. I Thought there were no coverage for wild Bermuda.
I love your videos. I did put bio advance grub control at the grub rate here in Minnesota at the end of May but I am still seeing those moths. Do I need to be concerned? Or reapply? I would love if someone could answer this!!
Hahaha, loved the Roxbury ending.
Wish you'd have posted this yesterday. I just sprayed down triazicide RTU hose sprayer for fleas. We just sprayed down the house with some aerosol stuff, all over the fabric, bathed the dog and cat, and then I sprayed down the back yard. I hope it lasts...... I dont have some major infestation or anything, Just wanted to nip it in the bud before it became a problem.
Great video. Very helpful. Can you spay hydretain together with spoon juice
During the Summer I use Scott's SummerGuard, GrubEx and DiseaseEX. This triple header formula along with use of Hydretain and mowing high keeps my Midwest lawn green.
When are you doing a pod cast ? I've enjoyed all of them . Thank you
hopefully today!
Great video!
Thanks for the info!
I also look to see if it may kill beneficial insects. Most are ok for earthworms, but most can be toxic to bees.
Thanks for all the info Allyn!
agreed, always have to use these in balance. Thanks bro!
Which products are safe for birds, bees, and your pets?
I recently had my lawn sodded (not sure if that's a word) with ProVista and I am curious if you are throwing down on new sod. Other than watering do you have recommendations- other than fungicide? Thanks for the awesome videos!
Hey Alan I enjoy your comments I've been a long time strawberries probably about 3 years now I live in Tampa I'm my Augustine grass is turning t like a line color real bright green what is my problem and what do I need to fix it.
Thanks for the info Allyn......I think I have the Bio advanced complete.......Dang it!!!!
Morning Allyn, I need some advice if you would. My daughter is building a house in KY that won't be ready to move in until October. That seems to late to seed a lawn, but I'm concerned that any rains will erode the back filled dirt. I'm thinking about annual rye, just to get some roots, but concerned that is to late as well. Any thoughts. Thanks for any input you have.
I looked at the active ingredient in Cutter for mosquito control and found it was Lambda-Cyhalothrin. You've brought up Bifen I/T in other videos for mosquito and ant control. If you're focus is nuisance pests which is a better option or should we rotate?
Allyn, if I use the BioAdvanced preventative bag next year and apply it in March/April, I'll get 2-3 months of protection for common damage/nuisance bugs; however will this not be as effective if I apply it again 2-3 months later (sometime in the summer) for additional protection? You mentioned to apply this product early in the season, just curious if this still works if I apply a 2nd app later in the season (summer/fall).
Very helpful
All organic lawn guy here, trying three kinds of nematodes this year for insect control. No easy way to monitor success but will see how bad the buggers are next season. Been using BtG for grubs and that has definitely worked up here in the transition zone.
Curious how this is going to work out for you. August means army worms down here in the south, and I have read that beneficial nematodes help prevent the infestation from happening. Unfortunately I didnt get ahead of it this year, so I will have to resort to chemicals again.
Any success?
That ending 🙌🏼
Hello lawn Care - Just put down new St Augs Sod hear in Florida ,-- the landscaper says this type of sod is susceptible to scabies pest , any feedback on this ? Or how soon after installation should one lay down a pest control ?
Good stuff! I wish I had waited to buy my Hydretain!!
Allyn, I have KBG, rye, fescue mix. I have been battling poa. Have you tried or used ETHOFUMESATE 4SC or Nortron® SC Herbicide?
Great video. Dylox is the most efficacious treatment for controlling the moles food population I have used.
I got distracted by the slow hand movement at 6:25. Excellent info as usual.
I know the chinch bugs are heading my way in N. Texas. I already have some liquid apps to throw down in the next few days, but this helps for the longer term as well. I’ll be reading the label details fir sure!
What products is good for Dillbugs? I'm in the South East Coastal GA. I have used Dominion 2l and Grubex. Both product work on Dillbugs and grub control. Can you recommend other products.
Starship Troopers are also great at getting rid of bugs and pest.
yes they are and now I need to go watch it again because it's awesome!
God, I love that movie.
Do your part!
The video was very informative and I learned a lot, but....part of me was hoping for a video of you and Brett in chicken costumes doing a promo for Biocharken!🤣
Don't give them any ideas 😂🤣😂🤣
😁😁😁😂😂😂
To control mosquitoes I use Talstar from the Do My Own website. I mix 1 oz per gallon and spray a fine mist around the perimeter of my yard as well as trees, shrubs and mulch beds. The active ingredient is bifenthrin and I spray an application about once per month. I would recommend this stuff. I was out on the deck until sunset last night and had zero mosquitoes. 👍
Not a fan of bifenthrin. Have had zero/poor results. Sprayed like you and was worthless.
@@shanew7361 Bummer. I've been using it for years with fabulous results.
Awesome video lcn
Thanks bro !
I’m starting to see some chewed up grass blades in my lawn! Sod web worms have been an issue in my st aug before!
yes they are very active right now in my area too
All I know is I live in south Texas . Got sick of paying truegreen to screw my yard up. Started following your channel and my yard is in full blown domination mode. Even after the freeze. Took a lot of work. But knock on wood , it’s kickin asss. Milo, prodemine, image, flagship, Scott’s desease x, seven bug killer, a little bit of RGS and lots of water. Thanks.
Nice !!!!
I agree most don't know what they're doing. It's hard to find companies with educated employees. Every year I tell myself this is the year I fire them and the idea of storing and spraying and purchasing all the tools and the required space isn't appealing.
Between you and I... Can i apply termidor/taurus SC to the lawn? I know its not labeled for lawns but people still do it.. is there any negative side effects to doing this?
I'm not one to break the label. I have plenty of good alternatives that are labeled for the target pests I'm facing.
Have you ever used Talstar? I put it down for fire ants this year in upstate SC and it’s worked great. However, I don’t know what all pests it covers or for how long.
Having trouble with red spider mites... have you ever had them on your property?
I used the spectracide this year and it didnt work very well. I'll try the bioadvance next time.
LCN, ever check on the lawn at you old house in St Petersburg? Anyway thanks for another great video!!
I need to drive by there for sure.
Having a heck of a time killing spider mites. Using bifenthrin granulas and liquid. 3 application still going strong any advice?
I'm in Ohio and a lot of areas around me have been reporting army worm infestations. Is this something I should be proactive on and apply a treatment now? If so what would you recommend?
I am looking to kill/control fleas and ticks for protection of my family (including my Australian Shepherd). Any knowledge about what is the best option and how often I would need to apply? Grub control would be a nice side effect, although not a necessity.
When are you coming out with a video about your new backpack sprayer?
Great video 🇺🇲👌💥
thank you!
I’m surprised you haven’t done anything on moles, voles, groundhogs, gophers, ect. That invade lawns. Moles especially love my yard because how much I water more then other lawns so my soil is nice soft for them.I know not much to do except traps and stuff but still a problem, just curious to see if you run into that a lot down there too? Stay frosty my friend!
Have tons of moles here
@@Alex.AL_26 have you used anything with success? I just been using a cheap trap that’s been working the best once I find a tunnel they keep using.
@@strongisland7015 even though I have seen a ton of them, I have not seen much if any damage in the lawn so I really have not bothered trying to put anything down. I have a thick healthy lawn so any tunnels they make or minor damage is usually gone within a week.
@@Alex.AL_26 ok that’s a good thing for you. Keep me posted!
Will you cover moles and voles please?
Allan, do you sell weed control for St.Augustine, floratam grass. I purchased 2 different weed killers for st Augustine grass and applied one on half and the other type on the other half. One killed everything and the other almost killed. That’s when I learned what type St Augustine grass I had. Which they do not sell weed control for Floratam St Augustine grass. Yet, they only sell floratam grass. Is there such a weed killer?
Hey Nancy - thats a tough lesson to learn for sure - I have a complete guide to weed control that I think will help you, it's free here drive.google.com/file/d/1rptIJRQuCMEhh0V124lcpDyzoPQLGNk0/view
LOL....Little Night at the Roxbury there at the end.
had to let it out!
Dude I see white flies big time. I've sprayed some liquids and they don't go away... but I have some granular grub control that I guess I better put down now. Down here in Florida, If you have ants, you must have Bahia grass. I don't...I have Floritam and Palmetto grass. I'm trying to figure out which one is better and I like the best.
bahia overall is a little thinner and doesn't create a dense canopy which does allow more room for ants to invade. Floratam can help keep them out for sure.
I live close to you and put down that same grub stuff today.
Good call
When do you stop using insect control for nuisance pests or can you use these year round? TY
My Weed Issue, the legal kind :-) I can't kill my weeds. I'm using 'Southern Atrazine Weed Killer for St Augustine Grass' in South Eastern North Carolina. What are you using ??? Tks ..
Here in Georgia we are getting ready to kick in to the fire ant season (August to late September).
oh yeah, us too in FL - they are popping up more and more
Cletus needs some pink flamingo stickers for his new boat. He calls it the pink flamingo.
I'm going to stick a couple out on the infield and see how long it takes him to notice them.
What about Sevendust will it kill everything in its tracks
If you put down the 24 hour Grub Killer, should you also put down the season long preventative at the same time?
If the target is grubs, no. Preventative is spring and corrective (24 hour) is late summer or fall.
Always add as much Chicago accent as possible, much appreciated!!!
Over bye dare !
@@Thelawncarenut excellent
"Yo, pump it!"
.....lol
Can I use the grub killer now on st Augastine
Just put my hydro down Allen . Thanks again my lawn is looking sexy . Pure domination
Hoorah!
I used to have an ant infestation every summer, they would be in the kitchen and car. But they would seemingly randomly dissapear. It took me a few seasons to realize the granules I was putting down for the ticks was also killing the ants.
Are the bigbox products good or is it better to get it from professional outlets
It varies but for the most part, stuff from the store will work just fine. however, the pro formulations are actually cheaper in the long run, you just have to invest more up front.
Hey Allyn, you showed all granule products, is that because you prefer to do your applications that way or because you believe granules are more effective at pest control? (Vs. a liquid app)
excellent question! I actually prefer liquid because I think it works faster/better. I just grabbed granular in this case because that is by far what sells most at the big box stores.
@@Thelawncarenut ok, cool. I prefer liquid apps too, this is great info, I just discovered a ton of ants partying it up in my front lawn so I'm going to war with them.
I learned three things - Do not fall for marketing gimmicks, read the labels, and I am not a chemist. 😉
ha ha! me too!
Are these safe on all types of grass? Some in the south say not safe on Bermuda or floritam.
These are ok for all grasses. Excellent question!
I need my 5-0-0!! When's she coming back into stock?
Soon I hope
What are your thoughts on nematodes? I used them for the first time this spring to help fight grubs. Positive results so far!
For what it’s worth, that’s all I’ve used for the past 5 or 6 years, both in spring and fall, and have had nothing but positive results. The hardest part of using nematodes is that you do not see any ‘tangible’ product going onto your lawns and all you can hear in the back of your mind is the hysterically-laughing store clerk saying, “Well, there goes another sucker who dropped +/- $30 on ‘invisible’ product🤣
Allyn Haynes New Balances rock my socks!
those NBs are so comfy!!
How do you get rid of rabbits. I'm currently using a high powered air rifle but I'd like to find something that will deter them
What about the liquid options? Just attaching to hose end.
Or granular is the way to go on these?
liquid works great. I just grabbed granular options for this video. For me, I actually prefer liquid.
@@Thelawncarenut Perfect. I use the liquid so I was just asking to see if I should change over but I'll stick to liquid. Thank you! 🙏
That Empire Zoysia is looking good in the backgound!
thanks! I llove that stuff
@@Thelawncarenut Just cut mine down to .5" and it is getting THICK! It'll be choking out the Torpedo soon enough.
@@redtwin1968 I need to commit to that myself and see how fast I can get the torpedo to back down. It's gotten pretty bad this year
Should have bought the Ortho BugClear instead of the Scott’s Grub-X! And now I have to make them pass customs in Costa Rica!
I don’t even bother with the insecticides from the big box stores, the commercial ones are way easier to understand what insect they target and are far more concentrated and work much better.
Any brand recommendations?
I'm going to apply the Bioadvanced Complete Insect Killer ready-to-spray. It works on surface and below soil bugs. I realize that after application, there should be no rain within 24 hours (as the product label states). I'm wondering if the product needs to be watered in at any point in order to get down into the soil. Anyone have experience using this product?
Thank you, Allyn. As always you bring it every time. Rain's coming here on Long Island so I'll be dropping The Stress Blend. Thanks again, for all you've given us.
perfect timing for some good rain in the heat of summer! thanks bro!
So I put down a mixture of different insecticides around the house and turf. Cypermethrin, imidacloprid, bifen. Do you worry about earthworms like I do? Or is it just me? We spray all of these things down, but from what I've read, the natural tillers of our precious turf soil are greatly affected by them. I'm just a dumbass, but I like to take these kinds of things into consideration, what are your thoughts?
Please try Toro front wheel drive mower for a video I hate front wheel drive
The labels for a lot of these insect control products are also deceiving though because there’s different app rates based on the types of insects you’re trying to control. So the bag will say, covers 10,000 sq ft, but for what you want to try and treat, you have to look over the label thoroughly. I’ve learned the skill of label reading from you though Sir, so thank you for that. Can we get some rain please! 🙏🏼
exactly my friend! you know how to navigate. Also I think we do have some rain coming - Denis was talking about some event over bye Jacksonville that was supposed to come across to hit us. You hear about that?
@@Thelawncarenut meteorologists have the most job security out of any profession that I know of, other than doctors. So we’ll see what happens with the weather event. At least you’re getting your beach weather. 👍🏼
That zoysia is looking 👌🏻
thanks bruh!
