HASLET, RIGHT NOW
What Is Biting in Haslet This Month
Haslet is one of the fastest-growing towns in north Tarrant County and nearly all of it is new construction. Disturbed soil is exactly what fire ants colonize first, so Haslet gives us more fire ant calls per household than anywhere else we work, followed closely by chinch bugs in builder-installed St. Augustine.
New Construction and Disturbed Soil
When a subdivision goes in, the grading destroys the existing ant ecology and fire ants move into the vacuum before anything else re-establishes. That is why a three-year-old Haslet yard can have more mounds than a fifty-year-old Fort Worth yard. It settles down over time, but the first several years need broadcast bait.
Builder Turf and Young Lawns
The St. Augustine and Bermuda that builders lay is young, thin and shallow-rooted for the first couple of seasons. Chinch bugs find that turf easily, and because the damage looks exactly like the drought stress a new lawn also has, it gets misdiagnosed constantly. If your new Haslet lawn has brown patches that more water does not fix, do the float test before you buy more water.
