What Are White Grubs and Why Are They Harmful?

White grubs are the larval stage of scarab beetles, including Japanese beetles, European chafers, and June bugs. These destructive pests feed on grass roots, cutting off the plant’s access to essential nutrients and water. Their activity often leads to patchy, wilted, and brown grass, mimicking the signs of drought stress.

A lawn infested with white grubs may feel spongy underfoot, and the affected turf lifts easily from the soil due to root destruction. If left untreated, grub infestations can result in extensive lawn damage, requiring costly repairs, reseeding, or sod replacement.

Signs of White Grub Damage

Detecting white grubs early is crucial to prevent severe lawn destruction. Look for the following warning signs:

✔️ Irregular patches of brown, dying grass, even with regular watering.
✔️ Grass that lifts easily with minimal effort, exposing root damage.
✔️ Increased animal activity, such as skunks, raccoons, or birds digging up the turf.
✔️ Presence of C-shaped white larvae in the soil beneath damaged areas.

If your lawn exhibits any of these symptoms, immediate treatment is necessary to prevent further spread.

Maintain a Healthy Lawn – A thick, well-fertilized lawn is more resistant to grub infestations.

Proper Watering Techniques – Overwatering can attract beetles to lay eggs, while deep, infrequent watering encourages strong root growth.

Regular Lawn Aeration – Helps improve soil structure, making it less hospitable for grub larvae.

Overseeding Weak Areas – Strengthens the lawn and reduces open spots where beetles can lay eggs.
