We speculate that clayey, mineral-rich, Macrotermes soil attracts herbivores (Maduakor and others 1995) that create the necessary disturbance which in turn affects the lawn-bunch balance by favoring the grazing tolerant lawn grass species.
And a few weeks before that, madam was laughing pointedly along with a comedian who suggested Americans were finally being woken up to climate change because it was affecting their lawns.
In a field experiment, we studied how termite-modified soil affects the occurrence of lawn and bunch grasses under natural field conditions.

Indoor sources may also be important components of individual exposure to air toxics and may be affected by emissions regulations (e.g., lawn and garden equipment in attached garages) (U.S. EPA 2007a; Weisel et al. 2002).
"Agriculture and lawns will almost certainly be profoundly affected by then," Holthaus told me.
