Then I take it you are in the business? I've been involved in `lawncare'
for over 40 years in a number of settings, myself, and am firmly
convinced that most lawn ailments (like many of their human counterparts)
will `cure' themselves with time and patience. I've seldom seen sod where
one couldn't find a few grubs if one tried.

I'm talking about grub -damage-, like in dead turf. If you think
that will cure itself, you're nuts!
