With expert grub control services for properties throughout Yukon, Lawn Doctor of Edmond-OKC provides critical relief from these destructive yard pests. As part of our comprehensive support, let’s start by going over some useful facts about grubs.
What are Grubs?
These pests are the offspring that result from Japanese beetle eggs. When these eggs hatch in your yard, grubs will linger in your soil, nibbling on the roots of your turf. Over time, this can lead to deteriorating conditions throughout your lawn ecosystem, including poor growth, bland color, and dry conditions.
How Do These Pests Hurt My Lawn?
In addition to the harm these pests cause directly by chewing on your turf roots and weakening your lawn ecosystem, they also bring additional problems due to their status on the food chain. Grubs are a nutritious source of calories for birds and other wild animals, and to get to these tasty snacks, these creatures will need to dig up your turf and soil.
Warning Signs of a Grub Infestation
A grub infestation is something you should strive to avoid, and our expert service includes proactive remedies to prevent those beetle eggs from ending up in your yard in the first place. However, this isn’t always possible, so it’s important to understand the warning signs of an active infestation. Here’s how you can spot the effects of grubs:
- Turf color. With prolonged grub activity, your lawn will turn from green to yellow.
- Drought symptoms. These pests can cause your lawn to suffer similar symptoms to a drought, so if your lawn is constantly dry despite consistent watering, grubs are likely the culprit.
- Animal behavior. If you see pencil-shaped holes in your turf or witness animals or birds digging around, this is a clear sign that your soil is rich with these white larvae.
