What are Grubs?\u00a0<\/em><\/h2>\n

Grubs are curly white larvae that remain hidden in your soil. They are the offspring of Japanese beetles, and their presence in your yard is problematic because they eat turf roots.<\/p>\n

How Do Grubs Damage My Turf?<\/h2>\n

With their tendency to nibble on turf roots, grubs can cause the quality of your lawn to suffer. An ongoing infestation will produce bland, yellowish grass with dry conditions and sparse growth. Grubs will also draw the attention of birds and other animals looking for an easy meal, which often means further turf damage due to these creatures digging around.<\/p>\n

What are The Signs of a Grub Infestation?<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Grub activity can lead to conditions similar to drought, so if you consistently water your lawn but the area remains dry and bland, you may have a grub infestation. To confirm the problem, you can simply take a look at your soil and see if there are any tiny white worms squirming about.<\/p>\n
