grubs now?

10 years ago

My lawn is tall turf fescue/KBG/rye. It was very healthy and looked great until 2 weeks ago. Now some areas are turning yellow and dying. Can grubs be around now? Or sod webworm. I see no evidence of it. I have irrigation, and have not over watered. Some shady areas are turning too. Any advice? Zone 6.Indiana Thanks

Grubs are not feeding now (they are late summer), any you see are already "full" and getting ready to come out and play.

Can't help you on the other question.

Thanks. But what about the dying grass? Could it be a fungus? It is just in a isolated area. I don't see any signs, like webs..Is there any type of insects besides grubs, that can cause this dying out.
