I have a white mold (or something-could be a fungus) on my soil underneath the grass. Seems to be all over the front yard. Had snow mold this year-first time ever-and I don't know if this is caused by that or if it is something different. Would like to know how to fix this without digging up the entire front yard.

Expert Response
I would not dig up your lawn. I would aerify, seed and fertilize to repair the lawn.
The fungus was likely the result of late fall fertilization and snow cover. Avoid fertilizing in the late fall (October and November) in your location.
