In the U.S., chinch bugs are most problematic in Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Texas, and Oklahoma. Chinch bugs are often seen damaging grasses similar to St. Augustine, Zoysia, and Bermuda.
Chinch bugs suck on the juices of the grass they prey on, releasing a toxin that eventually kills grass and causes the turf to develop brownish spots.
Chinch bugs normally grow to about 1/5 of an inch long, and are often black with white wings.
You may also see chinch bugs in their early stage, after they’re still yellow in color. They’ll begin to change to a reddish color soon after. During this time, Chinch bugs are in the nymph stage.
Chinch bugs do damage both in the nymph and adult stages, and must therefore be dealt with. There are natural pest management choices that you can utilize to control chinch bugs.
