Effective Grub Control Solutions by Premier Landscape & Maintenance

Grub worms are a common menace in lawns across Boone, NC, feeding on grass roots and causing significant damage to the turf. These pests, which are the larval form of various beetles such as June bugs and Japanese beetles, can wreak havoc on your lawn if not controlled properly. Premier Landscape & Maintenance provides expert grub control services to protect your lawn and maintain its beauty and health throughout the year.

Understanding Lawn Grubs and Their Impact

Lawn grubs typically feed on the organic materials in the soil, particularly the roots of the grass. This feeding results in weakening the grass, causing it to turn brown and die over time.

The life cycle of these pests varies; for instance, Japanese beetles have a three-year cycle, while Scarab Beetles complete their cycle in just one year. The cycle includes egg-laying in the soil during summer, with larvae hatching and feeding through the fall, growing into pupae in winter, and emerging as adult beetles in summer.

Identifying Grub Damage

As the warmer months bring your lawn back to life, it’s crucial to watch for unusual brown patches that could indicate grub activity from the previous fall. A simple way to check for grubs is to lift a section of brown grass. If the turf comes up easily with no roots attached, it’s likely that grubs have been at work. Additionally, if your lawn feels spongy underfoot, this could also be a sign of a grub infestation.

A healthy lawn can tolerate a small number of grubs, but an excessive amount can be devastating. Inspecting your lawn in late summer by digging up a small section can reveal the presence of grubs. Generally, finding five or fewer grubs per square foot is manageable, but any more than that, especially over ten, demands immediate treatment to prevent further damage.
