Donelson is full of mature neighborhoods, wide lawns, and tree-lined streets, from homes around McGavock Pike and Lebanon Pike to the quiet pockets near Two Rivers and the Stones River Greenway. But as peaceful as the area feels, Donelson lawns deal with some serious pest pressure once warm weather arrives.
Armyworms tear through turf in late summer. Grubs hide beneath the soil and chew at the roots. Cinch bugs target sunny, stressed areas. Sod webworms feed quietly at night. And mosquitoes? They thrive in Donelson thanks to rivers, creeks, and all the lush, shady backyard spaces.
