Default Half inch holes and little dirt mound in Zoysia lawn
I have several dead or dying patches in my Zoysia lawn. I've noticed areas of 1/2 inch diameter holes in various areas with little mounds of dirt.

I've lifted up several patches of sod and it appears whatever it is is eating the root system.

What insect is causing this and what is the best treatment?
