Snow Mold

The record snowfall from this past winter is still haunting us with many lawns being affected by snow mold. This lawn disease causes irregular, tan, matted areas to form - usually in areas where snow cover was heaviest. You might notice a pinkish or greyish tinge to the affected areas. This would indicate you have either pink snow mold or gray snow mold. In either case, lightly raking these areas usually is enough for the grass to recover and fill in.
