Telltale Indicators of a Grub Infestation


Most homeowners are unaware they have a grub issue lurking beneath their lawns. Identifying the problem is the first step to resolving it. Since grubs spend most of their time underground, their damage often appears as patches of unhealthy or dying grass. There are a few indicators that point to a grub infestation. If you spot any of the following warning signs, it’s time to consider professional lawn grub control to prevent further damage. Below are some of the most common signs that grubs are present:

Telltale Indicators of a Grub Infestation

Beetles

Grubs are the immature stage of various beetles, including June bugs, masked chafer beetles, and Japanese beetles. Certain species, like the Japanese beetle, are invasive and lack natural predators to regulate their numbers. These beetles typically emerge from the soil between May and July, becoming more noticeable during this time. However, the timing can shift based on regional factors and weather patterns.

Dead Grass

Grub damage in your lawn often shows up in different ways, with dead grass being the most frequent issue. Grubs feed on roots and other organic matter below the surface. This disrupts the flow of nutrients and water to your grass, ultimately leading to its death.

Rolling Dead Grass

The best method for locating grubs is simple. If you think part of your lawn might be affected, try pulling up that area of grass. In cases of severe grub damage, the grass will lift easily, much like peeling back a carpet. As you do this, you’ll probably notice a few grubs visible in the soil beneath.

Preventative Treatments Compared to Curative Treatments

Grub control typically falls into two categories: preventative and curative. Preventative treatments target grubs in their early stages, stopping them before they hatch or become active enough to harm your lawn. Curative treatments, however, are designed to tackle existing infestations, eliminating grubs that have matured and are actively feeding on your grass. For most homeowners dealing with grub issues, the best approach is a program that integrates both methods at different points throughout the year to align with the grubs' lifecycle.

    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.

Our Customers’ Frequent Grub Control Questions

Grub control can be a bit tricky to figure out unless you’re a seasoned expert in lawn care. While our team is always ready and willing to help with questions or to check your yard for grubs, Lawn Pride of Rockwall-Wylie has put together answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about grubs:

  • Grubs are beetle larvae that develop underground. Beetles deposit their eggs in the soil, which then hatch into larvae. These larvae later transform into pupae, eventually emerging as adult beetles. In their grub stage, they begin as tiny worms and grow into inch-long creatures resembling worms. Grubs typically grow in dense groups, meaning if you spot one in your yard, there’s a good chance many more are nearby.
