As innocuous as grubs may appear at first glance, these known pests can do unfortunate damage to your turf if left to their own devices. To find peace of mind, get started with strategic grub control treatments as early as possible. With Lawn Doctor of Dunwoody, Duluth, & Norcross treating your lawn, you won’t have to worry about a surprise grub infestation.
Why Grubs Must Be Stopped Early
A basic understanding of the life cycle of grubs is crucial to knowing how to stop them from doing damage. These tiny bugs, which are actually the larval form of the beetle, emerge from the eggs that beetles have laid in your soil. Once they’ve matured, eating plenty of grassroots in the process, they can then lay their own eggs. This perpetuates the cycle of grub infestations and heightens the risk of damage to your turf. By taking early action, you can stop new generations of grubs from taking hold and give your yard essential protection.
The reason grubs are so pernicious is that they eat away at the roots of plants, particularly the turfgrass roots found in your soil. By munching on the part of your lawn that is hiding underground, these critters essentially sever root systems from turf, leaving it to die off in ugly brown patches. If you ever notice that your turf feels soft or spongy underfoot, or you have spotted areas that are starting to turn brown, you can guess that grub damage is well underway.
