Unfortunately, many factors can disturb this root system, including pests such as grubs. These tiny pests are the larvae of beetles and roam around in the soil, eating plant roots as they go. Protecting your yard from their activity is a must, and it&#8217;s as easy as getting started with grub control treatments from our local team serving the Mableton area.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Red Flags Signaling a Need for Grub Control<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!--{cke_protected}%3Cmeta%20name%3D%22uuid%22%20content%3D%22uuid5EHP0ptJSn89%22%20%2F%3E--><\/p>\n<p>Curious to know if there are any warning signs you can look out for to learn whether grubs are active beneath the surface of your landscape? Grubs leave several signs in their wake. Some of the more noticeable ones include the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A\u00a0soft, squishy feeling underfoot.\u00a0<\/strong>When you walk across your lawn, does it all have an even texture, or are some spots bouncy or soft when you step on them? Squishy areas that feel almost like fresh sod are often spots where grubs have eaten away at and destabilized the grass roots below.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Color changes to your turf.\u00a0<\/strong>In addition to damaging root architecture, grubs can also harm grass by cutting off its source of nutrients and hydration. Your lawn will start to die off in brown, faded patches when grubs have done their work underground.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Evidence of other animals on your lawn.\u00a0<\/strong>The heightened presence of other animals in your yard, such as birds and raccoons, can also signal that grubs are hiding in the soil. These animals are known predators of grubs and may leave behind holes after digging around for their next meal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grass that can be peeled away from the soil.\u00a0<\/strong>When grubs have severed grassroots, you may even be able to pull up sections of grass from the ground in intact layers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>We Can Diagnose and Treat Your Grub Problem in Mableton<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to handle the task of figuring out whether you have a grub problem all on your own.
