Grub Control in Lafayette, Kokomo, and Muncie

Many homeowners have grub problems in their lawns that they don't know about, and the only way to solve this issue is to identify them first. Grubs live underground for the majority of the calendar year, so a grub infestation may just look like unhealthy grass above the soil. We've listed a few common signs of grub infestations. If any of the following infestation signs appear on your lawn, you need Lawn Pride of Lafayette, Kokomo, and Muncie’s lawn grub control services to eliminate your grub problem and protect your property against grubs getting out of hand. The following are some common signs your lawn has grubs living in it:

• Dead Grass – Grub damage in your lawn may show up in many forms. However, dead grass is the most common indicator of a grub infestation. Grubs primarily eat underground organic material, such as your grass roots. This root and material consumption cuts off your grass’s main source of nutrients and water and causes it to die.
• Beetles – Grubs are simply larval forms of Japanese Beetles, masked chafer beetles, June bugs, and other beetles. Some beetles are invasive species without natural predators to control their populations, such as Japanese Beetles. These insects typically come out from their underground homes between May and July and make themselves visible. However, the exact time they emerge can vary by weather conditions and your property's location.
• Rolling Dead Grass – This is the most reliable way to identify grubs in your yard. If you suspect grubs have invaded a section of your lawn, try to lift the grass in that section. Extensive grub infestations will let you easily roll that grass section like rolling up a piece of carpeting. You will probably be able to see a few grubs in your soil when you do this.
