Why Do You Need A Grub Control Service?
If you are paying a service to maintain your lawn and you have a cool season grass type found in the northern 1/2 of the country, you should seriously consider grub control service. Bluegrass, Ryegrass and Tall Fescue are common northern, cool season grasses that can be seriously damaged by grubs. Grubs are the larval stage of several types of beetles and feed on the roots of grass plants. At ExperiGreen, we recommend our guaranteed grub control service along with our standard program in most northern areas of the country.
At ExperiGreen we offer guaranteed lawn grub control. We actually apply a “grub proofing” product in the late spring or early summer to control grubs as they are smaller and before they cause a lot of damage.

Grub Control
Services
Grub are simply larvae of beetles that when hatched and growing, consume the roots of grass plants. Having voracious appetites, grubs can decimate an entire area of your lawn, killing it by severing the roots which stop the uptake of water and nutrient. The result? Large brown patches of dead turf in your lawn.
Applying a product that prevents the eggs from hatching is one step in an effective lawn grub control program. Once the grubs are present and active, a product is applied that reduces the number of active/feeding grubs.
- Elimination of the grub population allows the lawn to return to a place where growth of healthy lawn is possible. Since grubs typically kill the grass plants in area in which they feed, replacing the grass through a seeding program is usually necessary. This should be followed up by a fertilization plan that strengthens the growing lawn.
- Grub control is an important service and is recommended in most cases as part of an annual lawn care program. When you purchase a grub control service, you receive several benefits that include; peace of mind, knowing that your valuable investment is protected and you also know that if damage does occur, your lawn will be repaired in those damaged areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Grubs are the larvae of various beetles, including Japanese beetles, June bugs, and chafers. These pests live in the soil and feed on grass roots, causing extensive lawn damage. Heavy infestations can lead to brown patches and a thinning or dying lawn.
Signs of a grub infestation include brown, dead patches of grass that easily lift off the soil because the roots are damaged. Another indication is increased wildlife activity, such as birds, raccoons, or skunks digging up your lawn to feed on the grubs.
Preventative grub control treatments are generally applied annually. In areas with severe infestations, a follow-up treatment may be necessary. Our specialists can recommend a treatment schedule based on your lawn’s needs.
