The chinch bug is a small insect that causes dead patches in your lawn by eating the grass at the base of the stem. To test for chinch bugs, place a large hollowed can halfway into the ground and fill it with water. If you have chinch bugs they will float to the top. Establishing a healthy lawn particularly a lawn that includes clover is the easiest, cheapest, and most environmentally sensible way to avoid chinch bug infestation.
