Keeping your lawn pest-free requires constant vigilance and an understanding of the warning signs of an infestation. This is particularly true when it comes to grubs, as you’ll need to keep a lookout for signs of damage on your lawn. At the first sight of trouble, contact Lawn Doctor of South Oklahoma City-Norman for grub control in Moore.
Curious to learn how you can know that grubs are tunneling under your lawn? We’ve put together a list of red flags that frequently indicate a grub problem.
Red Flags Signaling a Need for Grub Control
Should you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, we recommend reaching out to our team right away:
- Do spots on your landscape feel more spongy or soft than others? One of the many ways to tell if grubs are active in the soil is a change in the way your grass feels when you walk on it. A soft feeling underfoot in certain areas likely indicates that these spots have had their roots destroyed by grubs.
- Have you seen brown patches starting to emerge on your lawn? Destruction to your lawn’s root system can also lead to patches of grass dying off, meaning random spots of turf will turn from green to brown.
- Are you puzzled by dug up areas and holes on your landscape? Grub activity attracts larger animals who feed on this pest. For example, skunks and raccoons can easily catch the scent of grubs. Once they do, they’ll dig them up, damaging your turf in the process.
- Have beetles or tiny moths begun hovering near the surface or your yard? When grubs mature, they become beetles or moths. Once these flying creatures are ready to lay their eggs in the soil, they’ll start hovering around in search of the right spot. Because grubs emerge from these eggs, beetles and moths can signal that a grub infestation will soon take hold.
