Nematodes are a growing but often undetected pest problem in turfgrass throughout the United States, especially on low-mowed greens or other areas under stress. Nematodes often enhance root diseases confounding diagnosis and control. Nematode assays can help determine the type of nematode present and whether they are a concern. If current symptoms are validated with high nematode, curative applications of Indemnify should be made immediately. For courses with a documented history of nematode damage, consider the following:
