Grubs are beetle larvae that have the destructive habit of chewing up turf roots. As a result, when these pests are in your soil, you can expect your lawn to experience many negative effects. With our professional grub control services, Lawn Doctor of Dunwoody, Duluth, & Norcross offers comprehensive support to address this issue and defend your turf.
Given the damage these pests can cause, it is always helpful to catch the infestation in its early stages. To help you detect grub activity as early as possible, let’s look at five potential warning signs.
Signs That Grubs Are Living in Your Soil
These little white larvae have curly bodies and spend their time living within your soil. During this phase of their existence, your turf roots will be their only form of sustenance, so a grub infestation is highly incompatible with a healthy lawn. Here are five ways to detect their presence:
- Loss of green color. Has your turf suffered a decline in aesthetic appeal? Has that once lush green grass turned yellow or brown?
- Odd conditions. Does your lawn feel spongy? Can you roll up your turf like carpet?
- Beetle activity. Are beetles constantly hovering above your turf?
- Animal scavenging. Are birds and other animals spending time around your yard? Have you noticed any small holes in your turf?
- Dry conditions. Do you often water your turf only to see constantly dry conditions?
Our Professional Grub Control in Norcross
Paying attention to the warning signs listed above can help you stop these pests in the early stages. However, you do not need to confirm their presence before moving forward with our treatment. As part of our grub control service, Lawn Doctor of Dunwoody, Duluth, & Norcross can provide preventative solutions that disrupt beetle reproduction before grubs are squirming around in your soil.
On the other hand, if we arrive at your yard after the infestation has taken hold, we can provide fast-acting grub control to eliminate the threat. After that, we’ll analyze the full scope of the damage and devise a detailed plan to restore your lawn.
