Grub Control
If you’ve been faithfully watering your lawn yet are still seeing unsightly brown patches, it could be that you don’t have a moisture problem, but rather a grub problem instead. White grubs are the larvae of Japanese beetles, both of which are very destructive to your grass, plants, and flowers.
As they grow, larvae have voracious appetites and, if not controlled, can quickly destroy an entire lawn. These pests are particularly destructive throughout the southeast, and controlling them is complicated by the fact that they are so well protected beneath the soil surface. Nature's Select™ Premium Turf Services, Inc. provides lawn grub control measures in Winston-Salem and nearby areas. Contact us at (336) 768-7999 to request your free estimate.
Grub Life Cycle
Unless they are controlled, grubs perpetuate a cycle of destruction throughout the year.
Spring
Grubs Awaken
Grubs awaken from the winter season and immediately begin feeding on grass roots. They soon change into pupae.
Summer
Pupae Emerges
Pupae emerge as beetles, including Japanese beetles, which eat leaves and flowers. Soon after, they lay their eggs in the soil.
Fall
Eggs Hatch
The eggs hatch into grubs and the cycle begins once again.
Grub Treatment for a Healthy Lawn
The best time of the year to apply insecticide controls is during late spring and early summer. Nature's Select™ has developed a treatment program which, if applied during this time period, will provide season-long control of grubs and other lawn-infesting insect pests. We can also provide a very effective treatment in the fall if the earlier time period is missed.
