Did you skip out on scheduling preventive grub control treatments for your property in Oklahoma this year and are now dealing with a grub infestation on your lawn? If so, you should immediately schedule a curative grub control treatment to eliminate the grubs on your lawn so that they can't continue to cause damage. Afterward, you'll need to schedule lawn care services to help your lawn recover from the grub damage; soil conditioning, fertilization, and overseeding are ideal lawn care services that will help your lawn recover from the grub infestation. However, be sure to sign up for preventative grub treatments next year to protect your lawn from future infestations and save yourself the headache of scheduling services to repair the damage.
Schedule a Curative Grub Treatment
If you skipped a preventative grub control treatment and your lawn is now infested with grubs, you should schedule a curative treatment immediately. A curative grub control treatment will eliminate existing grubs on your lawn so that they can't continue to cause any more damage.
Schedule lawn care services to help your turf recover from grub damage.
While a curative grub control treatment will stop grubs from causing additional damage to your lawn, it can't reverse any damage that was already sustained; lawn care services will help your turf recover from any grub damage. Some lawn care services you can schedule to help your lawn recover include:
- Soil conditioning - Soil conditioning will loosen compacted soil and make it easier for nutrients and other resources to reach the roots of your grass, which it will need to recover and grow healthy, strong root systems.
- Fertilization - Fertilizer treatments will supply your lawn with essential nutrients to help it recover from grub damage and encourage healthy green grass.
- Overseeding - Overseeding will fill in bare or patchy areas with new, healthy grass.(Only offered for established Fescue lawns in the fall.)
Sign Up for Preventative Treatments Next Year
If your lawn was infested with grubs this year, they will likely be back next year too. A preventative grub treatment is the most effective method of controlling the population and ensuring that no grubs survive to feast on the roots of your grass. It should be applied before they become most active because it sinks into your soil to eliminate grub eggs and newly hatched grubs so they never get the chance to start feasting on the roots of your grass. Getting ahead of the grubs before they inflict damage protects your lawn, so you won't have to worry about scheduling services to help your lawn recover. When you sign up for preventative treatments, you can rest easy knowing that your lawn will be grub-free!
