Tips for Prevention and Control
Regular Monitoring: Keep an eye on your lawn for signs of grub activity, such as brown patches, increased bird activity, or turf that feels spongy when you walk on it. Early detection can help prevent severe damage.
Proper Lawn Maintenance: Maintain a healthy lawn through regular mowing, watering, and fertilization. A strong, healthy lawn is more resistant to grub damage and other lawn pests.
Beneficial Nematodes: Consider using beneficial nematodes, microscopic organisms that naturally prey on grubs. They can be an effective and environmentally friendly option for grub control.
Timely Treatment: Apply grub control treatments in late summer or early fall when grubs are most active near the soil surface. This timing ensures that the treatment is most effective in eliminating the pests.
Aeration: Aerate your lawn regularly to improve soil structure and reduce compaction. Healthy soil with good aeration allows grass roots to grow deeper and stronger, making them less susceptible to grub damage. Aeration also helps to distribute beneficial nematodes more effectively.
Watering Practices: Avoid overwatering your lawn, as overly moist conditions can attract grubs. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth. This makes the grass more resilient and less appealing to grubs.
Thatch Management: Keep thatch levels under control by regularly dethatching your lawn. Excessive thatch can provide an ideal environment for grubs to thrive. Regular dethatching helps to remove this layer and reduce grub habitats.
Proper Fertilization: Use the right type and amount of fertilizer for your lawn. Over-fertilizing can create conditions favourable for grub development. Speak to us about developing a balanced fertilization plan that supports healthy grass growth without encouraging pests.
