Proactive grub control support from Lawn Doctor of Hartford-Manchester & Farmington-Simsbury can save your lawn from damage and protect you from expensive lawn restoration. Let’s discuss some key facts about these pests.
Where Do Grubs Come From?
These pests are the offspring of Japanese beetles. Grubs are larvae that live in your soil and eat the roots of your grass. With ongoing activity in your yard, they can weaken your root system and cause a variety of damage to your landscape.
How Do These Pests Hurt My Lawn?
As your roots get weaker and weaker due to all the nibbling from grubs, your lawn will lose its beautiful green color, become dry and stop growing properly. Also, grubs are a dense source of nutrition for many wild creatures, so you could experience additional lawn damage due to birds and other animals churning up your turf in search of a quick meal.
Signs That Indicate a Grub Infestation
Early action can save you time, energy, and money, so it’s good to be aware of the warning signs. Here are a few things to monitor:
- Thinning grass. Is your lawn growing sparsely with dead patches and spongy turf?
- Yellow grass. Has the color of your lawn shifted from green to yellow?
- Drought symptoms. Does your lawn always seem dry despite your attempts to keep it watered?
- Animal digging. Are wild animals regularly digging through your turf?
