Grub Control
White
grubs are the larvae stage of a variety of adult
beetles. They live underneath grass and feed on
the root system. If left alone, they will
destroy a patch of grass at a time until there
is nothing left. It may take a while to kill
your whole lawn, but they will continue to
multiply each year, feeding more and more.
Furthermore, they will attract animals such as
moles and skunks who like to feed on them.
If you can pull your grass up like a carpet,
you have grub damage. Since they eat the roots
of the grass, it becomes detached from the soil
below and will start to lift up easily. If you
peel it up a little, you will see the grubs
below. After the roots of the grass are gone,
you will start to see spots in your lawn turning
yellow or brown.
We recommend a yearly application for most
lawns. Even if you do not notice damage, this is
a very important preventative maintenance that
should be performed. Grubs cause a lot of damage
to a lot of lawns. Don't let yours be next.
