Not caused by the above. I have one section of my lawn that has some and it seemed to start soon after I moved in. I was having an addition put onto the lanai and some lumber was stored on that section of the yard for several weeks. When the lumber was removed I first noticed the runners. This happens to be the driest section of my yard. Was not brought by lawn service as I did my own with a new mower. Soil is sandy and the zoysia in that area is weakest in the whole yard. I keep at it every year but have not been able to get rid of it
