Win the War on Grubs with Expert Solutions from Moyer for a Lush, Invincible Lawn

Do you know if you have a grub problem? You might not realize it because they live underground, just a few inches deep in the soil of your lawn. Grubs are the larvae of beetles like the Japanese beetle, who lay their eggs in your lawn. Grubs start to cause damage by feeding on the root system of your grass, leading to thinning grass, brown patches and a weakened lawn. They are also attracting other problematic pests and creatures like racoons, skunks and birds who add to the damage of your lawn as they seek out the grubs for food.

Because grub populations can grow as large as ten grubs per square foot of lawn, early detection and treatment are essential for the health of your lawn.

Spot the Difference

Grub

Timing is everything when it comes to effective grub control. Keep an eye on your yard starting in late summer. If you notice activity like an excessive number of birds feeding or brown patches starting to develop, it’s time to consult our professional lawn care team to determine if grubs are the cause of the issue. If you know your lawn is prone to a grub infestation, the best time to apply grub control measures is from late spring to early summer when female beetles lay their eggs. Treating for grubs during this time can prevent the eggs from hatching into damaging larvae, breaking the life cycle of these pests. If you’ve just noticed the signs that indicate you might have grubs, contact us immediately so we can determine next steps.

FAQ

What are grubs and how do I identify them?
Grubs are the larvae of certain types of beetles, often appearing as C-shaped white or off-white worms found beneath the surface of your lawn.

How do grubs damage my lawn?
Grubs feed on the roots of grass, which can cause brown patches and thinning grass. Severe infestations can cause entire sections of a lawn to be easily lifted up like a carpet.

When is the best time to treat for grubs?
The best time usually depends on the grub species and region, but generally, it’s ideal to treat during their early larval stages which often happens in late spring through summer.

What treatment options are available for grub control?
There are both chemical and natural treatments available. Common solutions include preventive insecticides, curative treatments, and beneficial nematodes.

Are the treatment products safe for my pets and children?
These products are gentle for use around children and pets but it’s best to keep them off the treated area until it has dried completely.

How often should I treat my lawn for grubs?
Preventative treatments are typically applied once a year, but if an active infestation is found, additional treatments may be necessary.

How can I prevent grub infestations in the future?
Regular lawn care, early detection, and preventative treatments can help keep grub populations in check.

Will getting rid of grubs also reduce other pests like moles and birds that feed on them?
While eliminating grubs might reduce the attraction for some animals, it might not fully deter them, as they can have varied diets.
