You may be wondering: what are the signs of grubs in your lawn? There are a variety of ways you may be alerted to grubs – everything from lawn damage to excessive animal traffic and feeding to spotting the grubs themselves.
Grubs work underground so you may not see the actual grubs at all. But you will see the damage! Grubs do their dirty work quickly. They take no time at all destroying a healthy lawn. If you see your lawn turning brown and dry, you may have grubs. Spongy turf caused by the tunneling of grubs is another warning.
Sometimes when you have grubs in your lawn, you will see predators who constantly feed on the larvae. Some mammals such as skunks, raccoons, opossums and moles will dig into your lawn to eat the grubs. This can cause added turf damage.
When you think you have grubs in your lawn, you will need to act quickly.
