What Are Grubs?


Grubs are beetle larvae that mature underground. Beetles lay their eggs within the soil, which then hatch into larvae. The larvae later transform into pupae, eventually emerging from the ground as adult beetles. In their grub stage, they grow into inch-long creatures resembling worms. They typically grow in dense groups. If you spot one in your yard, there’s a good chance many more are nearby. Controlling grubs in lawns can be challenging. Fortunately, Lawn Pride of Savannah is here to help put your grub problem to an end.

Common Signs of a Grub Infestation

Most homeowners are unaware they have a grub issue lurking beneath their lawns. Identifying the culprit is the most effective way to resolve the issue. Grubs spend most of their time underground, so their damage often appears as unhealthy or dying grass patches. 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:

  • Beetles– Grubs are the immature stage of beetles. Certain species, like the Japanese beetle, are invasive and lack natural predators to control their population. These beetles typically emerge from the soil between May and July.
  • Dead Grass – Grub damage can manifest in different ways, but dead grass is the most common issue seen by property owners. Grubs feed on roots and other organic matter, disrupting the flow of nutrients and water to your grass and 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 the grass in that area. If you have severe grub damage, the grass will lift easily. As you do this, you'll probably notice some grubs in the soil beneath.

Preventative Treatments vs. Curative Treatments

Grub control is either a preventative or curative project. Preventative treatments target the early stages of a grub's life, stopping eggs before they hatch or the grubs become big enough to harm your lawn. Curative treatments, on the other hand, are designed to tackle existing grub infestations, eliminating ones that are actively feeding on your grass. The most effective program involves both methods at different points throughout the year to align with the grubs' lifecycle.

What Time of Year Should You Schedule Grub Control Services?

The ideal schedule for grub control depends on your region and climate. Preventative treatments are most effective when grubs begin hatching and feeding, usually between April and July. On the other hand, curative treatments are better timed for when grubs reach their later stages of development. This part of their cycle usually happens during mid-to-late summer. Our team of grub control specialists is ready to help you create a custom plan to protect your lawn.

    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.
