Grub Control
Grubs are the white or off-white larvae of Japanese Beetles and June Bugs. These ¼” to 1 ½” long bugs work under the surface destroying turf’s roots. So, by the time you see signs of grubs, much of the damage has already been done. As few as six grubs per square foot can cause quite a bit of damage in your lawn. They can be one of the most destructive lawn pests unless they are detected early and treated properly.
How do you know grubs have been at work?
Here are some of the signs:
- Turf begins to wilt and turn brown, creating dead spots throughout the lawn.
- Lawn easily rolls up like a carpet in damaged areas because of the root damage.
- Skunks and raccoons are digging up your yard looking for grubs, one of their favorite snacks.
