With their ability to chew up your turf roots and ruin your beautiful green landscape, grubs are a major threat. However, with our professional grub control service throughout Southampton, Lawn Doctor of The Hamptons can deliver the fast-acting treatments you need to stop these destructive beetle larvae.
To limit the damage, we always encourage our clients to monitor their yards for warning signs and take action right away. To begin, let’s discuss five key indicators of a grub infestation.
Signs of a Current Grub Infestation
Grubs are simply Japanese beetles in their larva stage, so the first sign of a grub infestation is usually the presence of beetles hovering around your lawn. Once these tiny pests invade your soil and begin munching on your turf, you can notice their presence due to the following effects:
- Bland color. Grubs will often turn a green lawn into a yellow or brown eyesore.
- Sparse growth. Grubs cause your root system to weaken, leading to poor growth.
- Dry conditions. Despite consistent watering, your lawn may develop symptoms that mirror those of a drought.
- Odd texture. Your turf may develop a spongy texture.
- Animal scavenging. Another major problem caused by an active grub infestation is that these creatures draw the attention of birds and other wild animals. These wild critters will then cause additional harm to your turf by digging around to get an easy meal.
