Protect Your Lawn from Subsurface Threats

Grub control services are specialized lawn care treatments aimed at managing and preventing infestations of lawn grubs. Lawn grubs, also known as white grubs, are the larvae of various types of beetles. They live beneath the surface of your lawn, feeding on the roots of grass and other plants, causing significant damage over time. The primary goal of grub control services is to eradicate these destructive pests before they have a chance to harm your lawn. The process typically involves the application of specific pesticides designed to target grubs without causing harm to your grass or the surrounding environment.

Grub control is a two-step process. The first step is a preventative treatment in late spring or early summer.. This treatment targets the newly hatched, above-ground grubs that start feeding on your lawn's roots. The second step is a curative treatment, applied five weeks later, when grubs are more mature and cause the most damage as they feed on the grass roots. After the second treatment, 95% of our customers do not see any further grub damage but if they do, we will continue treatment at no additional cost.  

In essence, grub control services are essential to comprehensive lawn care. By proactively treating your lawn for grubs, you can prevent extensive damage and keep your lawn looking healthy and vibrant.

Grub control is FREE when you sign up for our suggested lawn care service plan and it comes with a warranty.

How Often Should I Treat My Lawn for Grubs?

The frequency of grub treatment depends on whether you're trying to prevent or control an existing infestation:

  • Preventative: Apply grub control in late spring or early summer. One application with a product containing chlorantraniliprole can be effective for the season.
  • Curative: If you already have grubs, you may need to apply a product with carbaryl or trichlorfon in the spring or fall. Depending on the severity of the infestation, you may need to apply every 2 weeks until the grubs are under control.

In some cases, especially if you've had grub problems in the past, you may need to use grub control for two or three seasons in a row.

Recognizing the Signs of a Grub Infestation

A grub infestation can cause significant damage to your lawn before it's even noticeable. However, if you know what signs to look for, you can catch the problem early and prevent extensive damage. 

Here are some indicators that your lawn might be suffering from a grub infestation:

  • Unexplained Brown Patches: Grubs feed on the roots of your grass, causing it to turn brown and die. If you notice unexplained brown patches in your lawn that don't improve with watering, it could be due to grubs.
  • Spongy or Thin Grass: As grubs eat away at the roots of your grass, the turf may start to feel spongy underfoot. Over time, the grass may also appear thinner than usual.
  • Increased Bird Activity: Birds love to eat grubs. If you notice an increase in bird activity on your lawn, it could be a sign that you have a grub problem.
  • Visible Grubs are white or cream-colored larvae that curl into a C-shape when disturbed. They can often be found just beneath the surface of the soil. If you see these in your lawn, it's a clear sign of an infestation.
  • Easy-to-Pull Turf: Grubs sever the roots of the grass, making it easy to pull up. If you can pull back sections of your lawn like a carpet, revealing grubs underneath, you have a grub problem.

If you notice any of these signs, it's crucial to seek professional help immediately. A grub infestation can quickly devastate a lawn if left untreated. Grub control services from professionals like Mountain West Pest Control can effectively eradicate the infestation and help restore your lawn to health.
