Grub Insecticide Treatment

Effective control of white grubs requires understanding their life cycle. Let Champion Green handle these pests for you, making lawn care easy. While adult beetles can be pests, it’s the grubs that damage turfgrasses. Most grubs feed primarily on grass roots, cutting the plants off from water and nutrients. Common symptoms of white grub damage include yellowing or browning leaves, signs of drought stress even when conditions are good, and turf that is loose enough to pull easily from the soil. With heavy infestations, the ground becomes spongy.

Additional damage occurs when predators like moles, birds, skunks, raccoons, or armadillos root up the turf while hunting for the grubs.

Grubs (Scarabaeidae larvae) are controlled with a one-time insecticide application in the spring. If left untreated, grubs and their predators can permanently damage your lawn. This treatment includes a lawn insecticide for foliar and systemic control of pests like:

Turf Caterpillars (including Armyworm, Cutworm, and Sod Webworm)

White Grubs (including Aphodius, Asiatic Garden Beetle, Black Turfgrass Ataenius, European Chafer, Green June Beetle, Japanese Beetle, May/June Beetles, Northern Masked Chafer, Oriental Beetle, and Southern Masked Chafer)

European Crane Fly

Billbugs

Fall armyworm

Chinch bugs (suppression only)

Watering the lawn after application greatly enhances the treatment’s effectiveness.
