As you think about how to improve your lawn’s health, it’s crucial to consider the potential damage of external threats. This means that in addition to caring for your turf, you may also need to protect it by getting started with grub control treatments. Grubs can sever grass roots from the blades aboveground, and they can do major damage to a beautiful lawn, leaving it soft, spongy, and brown. To avoid having a grub infestation on your hands, simply sign up for our preventative grub control program at Lawn Doctor of Tupelo-Corinth-Jackson.
Understanding How to Deal With Grubs
Want to learn more about preventing grub-related damage with our help? Here are some of the things our technicians want you to know:
- The best time to start grub control treatments. It’s important to avoid waiting until you have already noticed grubs in your soil to reach out for grub prevention treatments. In fact, these treatments are most effective when applied in the spring or early summer, as this enables us to target grubs before they set out to feed on plant roots. Of course, we can also neutralize any existing grubs with these treatments.
- The origins of these critters. Once you understand why grubs are appearing on your lawn in the first place, you can be more vigilant about prevention. These worm-like creatures are actually an immature form of the beetle, known as larvae. If you see June bugs, Japanese beetles, or similar creatures on your lawn, you can bet that grub prevention is necessary.
- The extent of the damage that grubs can do. You don’t want to underestimate how much influence grubs can have on your turf’s health. Since they eat plant roots, they can wreak havoc on turfgrass, severing it from its life source and causing it to die off in patches. If you see any signs of damage before you have the chance to get started with grub control, you can count on us to provide health-boosting treatments that will bring your lawn back to baseline.
