  • These hungry pests devour grass roots, severing the plant's vital link to nutrients and water. This often results in circular patches of turf turning brown and dying, even if you water them regularly. If certain areas of your lawn seem unresponsive to standard care, it's wise to consider whether grubs are the culprits.

  • Grubs are actually the larval stage of various beetles, such as the common June bug or the destructive Japanese beetle. An unusual surge in adult beetles during late spring or early summer could signal that they've deposited eggs in your grass. These eggs will eventually hatch and develop into grubs.

  • A reliable method for checking for grubs involves trying to pull back sections of compromised grass. In cases of significant infestation, the turf will peel away with surprising ease, much like lifting a carpet, because the roots beneath have been extensively consumed. If you then observe worm-like creatures or pale larvae in the exposed soil, you've pinpointed your grub issue.

How Do Preventing & Controlling Grubs Differ?

If left untreated, grubs can cause significant harm to your lawn and garden. The key to effective grub management is knowing the difference between preventative and curative treatments. Grub prevention is designed to stop an infestation before it begins. We apply these treatments in late spring or early summer, depending on weather conditions, before the grub eggs hatch. This method kills the larvae before they can feed on your lawn's roots, acting as the best first line of defense for a healthy yard. On the other hand, grub control is for active infestations. These solutions are meant to eliminate grubs that have already hatched and are actively feeding. We typically apply these curative treatments in late summer or early fall when the grubs are larger and the damage becomes visible. At Lawn Pride of Bloomfield, we recommend combining both strategies to align with the grub life cycle and provide year-round protection.

The Difference Between Grub Prevention and Grub Control

Grubs can cause serious damage to your lawn or garden if left unchecked. Understanding the difference between preventative measures and curative treatments is key to managing grubs effectively. Knowing when and how to use each approach can help maintain a healthier lawn or garden.

Grub Prevention

Prevention is designed to stop problems before they start. Preventative treatments are applied to your lawn before grub eggs hatch, typically during late spring or early summer (depending on weather conditions). These treatments kill larvae before they start feeding on your lawn, making them the first line of defense for maintaining healthy grass.

Grub Control

Control treatments are for active infestations. Curative solutions effectively target grubs that have already hatched and grown. These treatments are typically applied later in the summer or early fall when grubs are larger and actively causing damage. At Lawn Pride of West Bloomfield, we recommend combining both approaches to align with the life cycle of grubs, ensuring year-round protection.

    Lawn Pride is extremely attentive to each lawn’s needs. They’re extremely thorough and I’ve recommended them to several friends. My lawn looks like a commercial, and they’ve nurtured new seed and sod into a healthy yard, while stressing the maintenance. Highly recommended.

    They always let me know what they were doing with each application and what I should and shouldn’t do for the next week (e.g. don’t mow the lawn for 2 days, etc.) Any time I have called with a question, I received an immediate response.
