Hey /an/. There are thousands of these little fucks eating grass on my lawn. Are they bad or should I just let em be?

Apparently they are called armyworms and there are an abnormal amount of them, and this is the first time I've seen them here in 4 years.
>Spodoptera exigua
Kill them with fire.
Or kill them with pesticide. They are a pest species. If you have a garden you'll want to treat it.

Pesticides are not really effective against them apparently.
Good luck OP.
Maybe a rock garden would look nice instead? lmao

I think I had a bunch on them here once, nearly stripped my Dogwood tree.
7 Dust worked.
