Recognizing signs of such damage early enough to do something about it is a must. Here are the red flags we recommend that local homeowners look out for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Changes in turf color (for the worse).\u00a0<\/strong>When your turf starts to shift in color to a more vibrant green, you have something to celebrate. However, when its hue changes\u00a0towards\u00a0brown, you have a problem. In many cases, grubs\u00a0are the cause of\u00a0grass turning brown in irregularly shaped patches.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unusual discrepancies in texture.\u00a0<\/strong>The work of grubs\u00a0can also affect how your lawn feels when you walk on it. If some areas have a normal firmness while others seem soft and squishy, grubs have probably begun\u00a0to weaken\u00a0your lawn&#8217;s root systems in certain spots.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Surges in the population of buzzing beetles.\u00a0<\/strong>When you know that beetles are responsible for producing grubs, you will understand why increases in their population\u00a0are a cause for concern.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sections of grass easily peel away from the soil.\u00a0<\/strong>When grubs have completely eaten through sections of\u00a0grass roots, the grass blades will have no anchor holding them down. Thus, you&#8217;ll be able to peel up these swaths of turf as if they were pieces of carpet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>We Can Diagnose and Treat Your Grub Problem in Bartow<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to wait until you notice the above signs to get started with grub control.
