Have you thought about how you’re going to protect your lawn from grubs?

How Grubs Harm Your Lawn

Why is grub control so important for your lawn?

Beetles lay eggs in late spring to early summer, and those eggs hatch into grubs in June and July. This is the critical developmental window when grubs are small, just starting to feed, and most vulnerable to control efforts.

Grubs munch on grassroots, which can lead to loose, spongey soil and dead patches as turf loses root support. It can also Attract wildlife digging for larvae (e.g. skunks, raccoons, birds), causing further lawn damage.

Ever So Green treatments strike at the heart of grub activity, preventing root damage that leads to spongy turf and brown spots.

Is Your Lawn Grub-Infested?

Have you noticed signs of grubs in your lawn? Maybe you’ve noticed the grass feels a little spongy, or you’re finding brown patches where the grass was once green. 

Grubs are a huge problem through the summer in Michigan. When you’re beginning to prep your lawn for warmer weather, there are a few things you can do to make sure grubs won’t be an issue later on.

  1. Look for dry patches in early spring to mid-summer that signals grubs have developed into adults. Grubs regularly eat grass roots, so grass and soil damage will be noticeable. 
  2. Additionally, you may notice spongy spots or gives a little as you walk on it. This could be indicative of an infestation. 
  3. Finally, if you’ve noticed more creatures feasting on your lawn, that’s a pretty sure sign that you have grubs. Look out for an increase of birds, raccoons, skunks, or moles.

  • Do you maintain a schedule? You want to know whether the service you’re interested in has a set schedule, or if you’ll have to create your own. You might also ask if the same crew will take care of your lawn each service, or if there’s a rotating crew.
  • Do you provide other services as well? If you’re looking for a specialist, it’s important to know if they truly have the experts in their field, or if they’re wearing many hats.
