Marcarl Posted June 3, 2011 #1 Posted June 3, 2011 Just discovered this in my backyard today,,,,, anybody know what could cause this?
warriorhoneybee Posted June 3, 2011 #2 Posted June 3, 2011 well i thought i saw the pics dated feb 11 but never the less i'd say one p_ss_d off dog!!!!!maybe two of them.
Midicat Posted June 3, 2011 #3 Posted June 3, 2011 Either that's where Charlie emptied his bladder ....or....bugs. Maybe grubs.
MiCarl Posted June 3, 2011 #4 Posted June 3, 2011 Dead grass will leave a spot like that in a picture every time.
Mariner Fan Posted June 3, 2011 #7 Posted June 3, 2011 I have spots like that all over my yard. Just ask my two dogs!
friesman Posted June 3, 2011 #9 Posted June 3, 2011 looks like a G1 85 been idling too long back there with the turn down Jardine exhausts cookin the grass. Brian
ragtop69gs Posted June 3, 2011 #10 Posted June 3, 2011 Looks like foot prints from Freebirds Pond Monster
Yammer Dan Posted June 3, 2011 #11 Posted June 3, 2011 Those 85's sure sound sweet with the Jardines..
E-Fishin-C Posted June 3, 2011 #13 Posted June 3, 2011 Sure Blame me !!!Not me!!!! My tent was facing the other way
hillrider Posted June 3, 2011 #16 Posted June 3, 2011 Git thyself to the local extension agent today. I had something like that a long time ago and it killed to whole yard.
barend Posted June 4, 2011 #19 Posted June 4, 2011 You want my professional opinion? No, not dogs, spots are too big and they aren't round, besides there is no evidence of dogs tracking back and forth along the fence line. Spots are too even in shape and seem to start/stop on the same plane which would indicate man made. MC exhaust would be a good possibility but they might be too close together. Do you use a commercial zero turn mower? Pump motors put out heat and have cooling fans on the belt pulley. The spots fall within the apparent mowing width shown on the pic, so a stopped but running mower would fit. Look to see if the "burn" is lighter or thinning on one side (i.e. less defined), which would definitely indicate heat. I see you spray your fence line to eliminate trimming, careless use of herbicide may have caused this, but not overnight and I'd have to go back to the symmetry which would make it improbable. A spill of something like a solvent of gasoline would cause this, but again, two slightly elongated spots even in size, side by side; not likely.
