We recommend using a Soil Test Kit or taking a sample of your soil to your local cooperative extension so your soil can be analyzed to determine what nutrients your soil is lacking. The healthiest, hardiest lawns are fertilized 2-4 times per year, fall, summer, early spring and late spring.
A Bayer 3 in 1 insecticide could be used at the same time as a fertilizer however we would recommend consulting with your Master Gardener for their recommendations.
