Yes, agree with you there. But can anyone tell me what this black stuff is and how to kill it?
Help with Black Fungus or Mold in Bermuda
First post here! I love working in my bermuda lawn, but I do have one trouble spot that I would like to bring back to life. It is in a shady, damp location so it will always be a battle, but I do not want to give up. A black fungus or mold has taken over one part of my yard. When it dries out, the top layer scales up a bit.
I recently applied Caravan G (azoxystrobin), but a very heavy rain following the application could have washed it away. I am including a link to a video so that you have a visual of the problem. I would appreciate all the help I can get in order to get the bermuda to spread back into this part of the lawn.

I just wanted to come back and say thanks for all of your helpful comments. I now believe that the black stuff is algae and i'm considering my options. However, perhaps I do not tackle it until I understand what I want to do in those areas to maintain a long-term solution. Thank you for the suggestions on a bermuda type that can thrive in the shade as that is my desired outcome.
