The best way to get rid of red thread is proper fertilization, mowing, and
irrigation of the turf. There are plenty of fungicides available that

will
control and prevent it, but they will not cure it completley. You can use

any
of the following:

Thiophanate-methyl- sold as clearys 3336, also as scotts lawn fungus

control.

Mancozeb- cleary's protect or mancozeb flowable.

Propiconazole- also known as banner maxx. also sold as simply "garden
fungicide" by ferti-lome.

Again, chemicals are your last resort, and proer cultural practices are

always
the best way to keep fungus away.
