This will leave behind an ugly shade of brown in place of the former healthy green.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Beetles are buzzing around at the level of grass blades.<\/strong>\u00a0Beetles and moths lay the eggs that generate grubs, and their presence in your grass is a major red flag that a grub infestation could be just around the corner.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dug up holes scattered across your yard.\u00a0<\/strong>Have mysterious holes started to appear on your landscape? These are likely the work of larger animals searching for grubs to snack on.
