White grubs can be a particular problem for your turf. They can quickly turn a flourishing lawn into one that’s patchy and thinning, causing significant damage to the roots in the process. Let’s take a look at what you should know about grubs and grub control.
Understanding Grub Control in Bernardsville
It’s hard to know if you need expert treatment if you don’t know what to look for. When in doubt, homeowners in Bernardsville can always ask our team for input. That said, here are a few details to know about grubs:
- What do they look like? White grubs have brown heads and white bodies. They typically grow to about 1″ in length, although they can be a little smaller or bigger depending on their maturity. You’ll notice that they’re thick and soft and that they curl into their famous C-shape if you disturb them.
- How do they cause damage? Grubs feast on the soil, looking for organic matter and robbing your grass of rich nutrients in the process. But that’s not all. They also commonly eat grass roots, which can cause long-lasting harm to your grass plants and overall lawn.
- What are signs to watch out for? For homeowners in Bernardsville, there are a few potential signs of grubs. First and most obviously, you may find them when digging around your garden or lawn. Brown and patchy areas of grass can be another sign. You may also notice that areas of your lawn are getting unusually soft.
