These destructive pests can cause significant damage by feeding on the roots of your grass, leading to dead patches, thinning turf, and even attracting other animals that dig up your lawn. Our Grub Control Services are designed to protect your lawn from these harmful pests, ensuring your yard remains lush, green, and thriving all year long.
Grub Control
At Spring Valley Lawn and Snow, we understand that a healthy lawn begins with strong roots, and nothing threatens your lawn’s health like grubs.
What Are Grubs?
Grubs are the larvae of various species of beetles, such as Japanese beetles, June bugs, and chafers. These small, C-shaped creatures live in the soil, where they feed on the roots of grass and other plants. While grubs are in their larval stage, they can cause severe damage to lawns by munching away at the grass’s root system.
Typically, grubs are active in late summer through early fall, when they are feeding the most and growing in size. They continue to damage the lawn until they pupate and emerge as adult beetles
How Grubs Can Destroy Your Grass
Grubs can be a significant threat to the health and appearance of your lawn. Here’s how they cause damage:
Root Damage:
As grubs feed on the roots of grass, they disrupt the grass’s ability to take in water and nutrients. Without healthy roots, grass begins to wilt and die. Over time, affected areas will become brown, dry, and patchy.
Turf Weakening:
Grubs weaken the entire lawn by destroying the root system, leaving the turf vulnerable to drought, disease, and other pests. The affected areas become soft and spongy underfoot because the roots no longer anchor the grass in place.
Increased Animal Activity:
Grubs are a favorite food of animals like raccoons, skunks, and birds. When these pests detect the presence of grubs in your lawn, they will begin to dig up your yard in search of a meal. This additional damage can result in unsightly holes and further destruction of your lawn.
Spread of Damage:
Once grubs have infested an area, they will continue to feed on the roots and can easily spread to other parts of your lawn. If left untreated, grub damage can quickly become widespread, leading to large areas of dead grass that may require expensive lawn repair.
