The st aug in my yard is starting to turn yellow. I'm guessing it's just too wet from all the rain. Any products I can put down?

Too wet. Put down some milorganite. Can't go wrong with that.

I would spray with a fungicide mixed with an insecticide in case you have sod webworms problems in addition to fungal,issues due to rain.

You need to do this asap, it will stop the fungus but what has already yellowed may or may not make it, it definitely will not turn green again this year. Some will have gone dormant and recover in the spring.

I have not found this to be as common as it would seem from all the online discussions but it is possible.

Webworm is coming back again this year and depending on where you live, is very like your culprit. My FIL already has several dead patches on his lawn and i noticed a lot of moths flying up when cutting grass over the weekend. Spray some insecticide immediately and get ahead of it.
