American Grass is getting dead white patches.

I had my old lawn dug up and refilled with new dirt and manure about 5 months ago. I got the so called american grass put instead of the korean grass that was on it. The grass filled up nicely within 3 months. a month ago a few dead patches started showing up. There are now a lot more of them showing up throughout the month. I have put the so called "taimak" pesticide to kill the worms underground around 2 months ago. Also another problem is that there are bumps all over the lawn where the dirt has settled. I would appreciate any feedback on the problems and if it would help I could take some pictures and post them here. I currently have a big bag of dirt and manure mix sitting if possible to level the lawn and also a huge canister of the "taimak" pesticide.

I got a video of the garden with the patches

Any help would be appreciated.

First of all never mix manure in lawn as it developes weeds.secondly feed your lawn with foliar NPK with micro nutients after each mowing.check for termites.if termites are there use BAYERS REGENT.

How exactly would I be able to check for termites? There is a huge patch where ants have dug up some hills. The big black ants and the small ants. Is there a place where I can obtain the Foliar NPK?

Can not find Bayer Regent anywhere. The guy we buy from is saying it is sold in Hyderabad for farms. He was trying to sell me another pesticide, ( Stedee Pronil-ST) saying it is better than that.
