Grubs can cause severe damage to your lawn that will eventually cost a lot of money to fix; these pests particularly like the hot summer weather here in Nebraska. Although curative grub control treatments work, you'll want to use preventative treatments instead of taking your chances and then needing to rely on curative. Preventative treatments get rid of grubs before they even have the opportunity to hatch and start causing damage. Also, relying solely on curative treatments can be more expensive in the long run. For the best results, you should schedule preventative grub control treatments in the early spring.

Preventative treatments get rid of grubs before they become a problem.

It takes only a matter of weeks for grub damage to become noticeable on your lawn. If you wait until this point, your only choice is to invest in curative grub control treatments to get rid of the infestation. Instead of relying on curative treatments to solve the problem, you need to prevent grubs from becoming a problem in the first place. Preventative grub control treatments are designed to eradicate grubs before they hatch, so they won't even have the opportunity to cause damage to your lawn. Save your time, your money, and your lawn by going with preventative grub control from the beginning so you can stop harmful grubs in their tracks.

Relying solely on curative grub control treatments is more expensive in the long run.

Drying lawn due to grub infestation in Waterloo, NE.

When left to their own devices, grubs can cause significant (and expensive) damage to your lawn. If you wait for grub damage to become noticeable, it is already too late. At that point, your only option is to rely solely on curative grub control treatments to eradicate the infestation. However, even when the curative treatments get rid of the grubs, you will be left with a weak, damaged lawn; you will need to purchase lawn care treatments such as fertilization in order to nurse your lawn back to health. So, when you rely solely on curative grub control treatments, you are not only paying for those treatments; you will also have to pay for the lawn care treatments required to help your lawn recover from grub damage.

Grub damage can make your lawn weak, patchy, and more vulnerable to drought and other stressors.

When should you apply preventative grub control treatments?

The ideal time of the year to apply preventative grub control treatments is in the spring. This is because grubs start to hatch in mid to late summer and immediately begin causing damage to your lawn by feeding on the roots of your grass; they will be at their most active by the fall when they will move deeper in your soil and cause more serious damage. By applying preventative grub control in April or May, you can prevent grub development and stop grubs in their tracks before they become a problem.
