I had the same problem and thought it was too much sun or not enough water, but we were told it's fungus. Call a lawn service to fertilize and treat lawn and it will look great again soon.

Hi I'm Garry,

I advise you to do a google search on Bahia Lawn, treat it yourself instead of calling a lawn pro to do it as you would save some money and at the same time have the ability to treat it if it happens again in the future, at the same time you would learn all you don't know about Bahia lawn incase of other troubles you might have with the lawn.

I'm sure if you do a google search you will find several sites with the information you need, you would become more educated on the subject and at the same time save some money that you could put towards your kids education, or even donate it to the children's hospital as a good deed.

Money is a gift from god, just like food, the ability to have children and the ability to fall in love.

waste not.

Because what goes up must come down and in that fact there will come the day you die if you are alive.
You will have to face god with the bad and god deeds in your life.

Something so small like spending money on your lawn you can turn into a big deal by turning it into a good deed as you put the money towards your children or donating it to someone that needs it.

Money and children are the decoration of our life.
Treat them well and they will treat you even better in the future!

As long as you remember.. what goes up must come down.

Simply wishing you the best in life,

Either it's fungus or too much watering. Contact your local lawn service for advice,
the key here is that you see it in both your lawn and the neighbors. So, you can elimate watering problems. That is unless, you both water identically the same, very doubtful. The second guess is too dry. We have had Lot's of rain here, so that's doubtful. You should determine how far your yellow spots are from your neighbors. Are they close together or some distance apart. ( more than 100 feet) Bahia grass is the best grass for Fla. lawns as it needs little or no fertilizer, little water, and is resistant to just about all bugs. That is why you see it planted along the highways and local govt. buildings.
Put a small amount of soapy water in a small can, push it into the area just outside the yellow spots and see if critters float to the top, or go running. If not, pull up a small patch of green, just outside the yellow and look at the roots. Do not use the yellow area because if it's bugs they have already moved on the greener lawn for better chomping. There are so many possibles, but the interesting fact is that both you and your neighbor have the same thing. Any overhanging trees? Any recent construction
Anyone using a lawn service that sprayed something on a windy day? Let us know what you find out, or email me directly. I live in the Daytona Beach area so if you are close I can help out.
