We offer grub control lawn treatments to customers throughout the Hot Springs, Arkadelphia, Malvern, Hot Springs Village, and Glenwood, AR areas. With them, we can get these damaging pests under control.
Lawn Treatment from Lawn Doctor of Hot Springs: How Grub Control Works
Grubs are simply a larval form of scarab beetles, such as Japanese beetles and June bugs. While they’re tiny in size – not much more than an inch in length – they can cause big-time damage in your lawn. That’s because they feed on grass roots. As a result, over time, they can actually kill off portions of your lawn thanks to their eating habits.
Beyond areas of dead grass scattered across your lawn, you can tell you have a grub problem if:
- Your lawn feels spongy when you walk over it.
- Your lawn is thinning despite adequate water and fertilization.
- Small animals, like skunks and birds, are suddenly digging up your lawn because they feed on grubs.
- Patches of your lawn are easily pulled up or rolled back like carpet due to lack of grass roots.
When you’ve got grubs, our grub control lawn treatments provide the answer. Not only can we reduce populations in your lawn with a curative application, but also provide residual long-lasting protection going forward with our preventative treatments. These stop grubs, which are active from mid-August through November, from populating your lawn in the first place and damaging your lawn. This is the best approach to grub control since, once the damage is done, restoration services can cost you hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
