Schertz soil, grass & climate

Schertz sits in Guadalupe and Bexar counties, with the I-35 corridor and Randolph Air Force Base. The area features heavy clay soils along the Guadalupe County line, with blackland clay that holds water and compacts easily. St. Augustine and Bermuda are most common, with Zoysia growing in popularity in newer subdivisions. These conditions mean your lawn needs treatments timed to Central Texas growing seasons — pre-emergent weed control in early spring, fertilization through the growing season, and fungal disease prevention in humid fall months.

The most common weeds we treat in Schertz lawns include crabgrass, dallisgrass, goosegrass, clover, henbit, Poa annua, nutsedge, and dollarweed. These weeds compete with your turf for water and nutrients, and many require both pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments to fully control. We target them at the right time of year for lasting results.

Common lawn pests in the Schertz area include fire ants, chinch bugs, white grubs, fall armyworms, sod webworms, fleas, and ticks. Chinch bugs damage St. Augustine grass in the heat of summer, while white grubs feed on grass roots below the surface. Fire ants are a year-round nuisance in Central Texas, and fall armyworms can devastate a lawn seemingly overnight. Our pest control programs target each of these at the right stage of their life cycle.

Lawn diseases like brown patch (large patch), gray leaf spot, and take-all root rot are also common in Central Texas, particularly during periods of high humidity or overwatering. Brown patch (also called large patch) appears as circular brown rings in St. Augustine and can spread quickly in cool, wet fall weather. Our team can diagnose and treat these issues before they cause lasting damage.
