Army Worm Invasion

When my figs were ripening I would get out early before the Texas heat got to triple digits to pick them. That’s when I noticed hundreds of little caterpillar-type worms all over my driveway and patio. I queried my neighbors who, after checking their own yards, said we had been invaded by army worms! Army worms like Bermuda grass and that’s what many of us have in our yards. They can destroy a lawn in a matter of days. I was wishing for a huge flock of birds to fly in and eat them all, but that didn’t happen. So, I called my yard guy and asked him to get rid of only the worms, not every other living thing in my yard!
