Heat Stress Starts to Set In
By mid-June, temperatures across North Metro Atlanta can easily creep into the high 80s and 90s. That intense sun and heat can take a toll on your grass, especially if it's not properly watered or fertilized.
Warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia thrive in the heat, but even they can suffer from drought stress if the soil dries out. You may start to notice:
- Browning or thinning patches
- Grass that doesn’t spring back after walking on it
- Wilting blades during the hottest parts of the day

Summer Storms Can Bring More Than Just Rain
June also kicks off storm season in Georgia. Sudden downpours can be great for replenishing thirsty lawns, but they also bring challenges like:
- Soil erosion
- Fungal growth
- Fast-spreading weeds
- Pests like armyworms or grubs
Heavy rain can also wash away nutrients, leaving your lawn looking uneven or patchy. And if water starts pooling in low spots, it can suffocate grass roots and attract mosquitoes.

We keep your lawn healthy and resilient with a custom plan that includes core aeration (if needed), strategic fertilization, and targeted weed and pest control. We also help you identify drainage issues or trouble spots that could lead to long-term damage if left untreated.
Weeds and Pests Love June Weather
When your lawn is stressed, weeds and pests see an opportunity. Weeds like crabgrass, dandelions, and nutsedge thrive in the June heat and will take over quickly if your lawn isn’t properly treated.
Plus, common lawn pests like fire ants and grubs are more active this time of year and can quietly destroy turf from the roots up.
