Did you know that grubs can chew up your turf roots and cause significant damage to your lawn? With expert grub control throughout the Saint Cloud area, Lawn Doctor of St. Cloud-Kissimmee provides the comprehensive solutions you need to combat this common threat. To get started, let’s look at three signs that grubs may be lurking within your soil.
Signs That Grubs Are Living in Your Soil
Grubs are tiny larvae that emerge from beetle eggs. These pests have a very straightforward existence during this phase of their life cycle. They will inhabit the depths of your soil and exclusively eat the roots of your turf. This can lead to a variety of lawn care problems, including:
- Turf damage. You may notice that your turf has become spongy and dry. Also, in some cases, you will even be able to pull up sections of your turf as if they were strips of carpet.
- Aesthetic decline. Another common sign of grub activity is if your lawn starts to turn yellow or brown. Your turf will also thin out, creating an ugly and patchy lawn.
- Animal activity. On top of all the direct damage caused by grubs, they also draw attention from wild animals. This often leads to further turf harm as these critters dig through your lawn to access the easy meal hiding in your soil. Common grub-eating animals include birds, raccoons, skunks, moles, and others.
