Your lawn faces a wide range of threats through the seasons, from inclement weather to weed infestations. But few of these threats can be as devastating to your outdoor spaces as grubs. These invasive pests can kill off large patches of your lawn in no time, and they can pop up seemingly out of nowhere. Because grubs reside under your lawn’s surface, it’s tough to identify infestations on your own before it’s too late. At Lawn Doctor of Madison, we utilize comprehensive grub control solutions to protect our neighbors’ lawns from these pesky insects.
How Grubs Damage Your Yard
To understand how grubs can cause so much damage to your home’s outdoor spaces, it’s important to understand how they get into your yard in the first place. Instead of being fully developed insects, grubs are the larval form of beetles. While some insects lay their eggs in tall grass or in standing water, beetles lay their eggs underground. While grubs develop underground after they’ve hatched from these eggs, they’ll feed on the root systems that support your grass and the other plants in your yard. This allows grubs to kill off large sections of turf if they’re not effectively addressed.
Our Grub Control in Madison
Fighting grubs and preventing them from coming back in the future means taking a multifaceted approach. At Lawn Doctor of Madison, we use a comprehensive strategy to quickly eliminate grubs and help you keep your yard protected from these pests in the long run. Here’s a quick overview of our process:
Fighting Active Grubs
If grubs are already in your yard, it’s crucial to eliminate them before they’re able to cause damage. The first step of our grub control is to perform an in-depth analysis of your home’s outdoor spaces and keep an eye out for the signs of these pests. These signs can include anything from spongy grass to discoloration and the presence of beetles. If we spot these pests, we’ll use our advanced grub treatments to neutralize them and prevent them from damaging your yard.
