Grubs are the larvae of a variety of beetles. They live underground in the soil beneath our grass. Grub worms actually feed on the blades and roots of grass. They can cause extensive damage to your lawn’s root system, affecting your grass’ ability to absorb water and nutrients. Sometimes the damage can be so great the you can pull the grass up like carpet.

STEP 1: Identification

The grub can vary in size from three eighths of an inch to two inches in length. It is soft, thick, and has a white body. They are frequently, but not always, curled like the letter C. Important characteristics of grubs are their well-developed heads and their legs. Grubs will have brownish heads with large mandibles. They will also have three pairs of legs near their heads. The presence of legs will help you distinguish grubs over other larval pests.

STEP 2: Inspection

Check your damaged grass. Pay attention to those scattered, irregular patches of dead turf. Use a shovel to dig a square foot hole about three inches deep. If you spot for more than five grubs in that square foot patch, then treatment is necessary. When you’re done, pack the sod back down and water to help the grass from drying out.

STEP 3: Control

August and September are the peak times for grub activity - this is the best time to treat your yard. The newly hatched grubs will be closer to the ground surface feeding on the grass, so they will be more likely to come into contact with pesticides. They will also be weaker and more susceptible to treatments.

You can use either a granular pesticide like Imidacloprid .5G or a liquid pesticide like Dominion 2L. You can choose whichever is easier for you to apply.

We recommend Dominion 2L because after being mixed with water, it will penetrate deep down into the soil where grubs will be hiding. Dominion 2L is also a systemic insecticide, meaning it will also work its way through the root system of your lawn. Grubs will be exposed to the pesticide when they feed on the roots.

Dominion 2L also has an up to three month residual and will treat more than just grubs. It can be used to control other turf pests like chinch bugs, ornamental pests like aphids, and even wood destroying insects like termites and carpenter ants.

Use Dominion 2L with a hose-end sprayer, following label instructions. Using a hose-end sprayer is ideal because you want to make sure there is enough water to carry the Dominion down deep into the soil where the grubs will be.

Broadcast the Dominion over your entire lawn, making a nice even coat. We recommend aiming for about a gallon of water per thousand square feet. Stay off the treated area until it dries.

You can also use the Imidacloprid .5G granules. This is also a good option because, like Dominion 2L, these granules will help control a variety of larval and turf pests, and is also systemic.

Load the granules into a spreader, following label directions. Broadcast the granules over the entire yard. Like with the Dominion 2L, the granules need to be soaked into the turf for best results, so water the lawn thoroughly after application to drive the granules down.

Again, choose whichever product is easier to apply, but for heavy or repeat infestations, you might want to apply both products.

STEP 4: Prevention

Prevent grubs and beetles from returning by regularly maintaining your yard. Mow your grass at the right height; properly water your lawn, being careful not to over-water; fertilize your lawn in the fall season to strengthen the turf’s roots and resist injury from grubs, and apply Dominion 2L or Imidacloprid granules every three months for long lasting control.
