Grub Control

Protect your lawn and garden from the damaging effects of grubs with Growcycle’s effective grub control solutions. Grubs, the larvae of various beetles, can cause significant damage to grass roots and other plants, leading to brown patches and weakened vegetation. Our high-quality grub control products are designed to target and eliminate grubs while being safe for your garden and the environment.

Beneficial Nematodes:

• Natural Predators: Beneficial nematodes are microscopic worms that naturally seek out and destroy grubs in the soil. They enter the grubs and release bacteria that kill them.

• Eco-Friendly: This biological control method is safe for humans, pets, and beneficial insects, providing an environmentally friendly way to manage grub populations.

• Easy Application: Beneficial nematodes can be applied using a hose-end sprayer or watering can, making them easy to distribute throughout your lawn and garden.

Grub-Resistant Grass Varieties:

• Preventive Measure: Planting grub-resistant grass varieties can reduce the likelihood of grub infestations. These grasses are less attractive to beetles for laying eggs.

• Sustainable Solution: Using resistant varieties helps maintain a healthy lawn with fewer chemical interventions, promoting sustainable gardening practices.

Milky Spore:

• Long-Term Control: Milky spore is a natural bacterium that targets Japanese beetle grubs. Once ingested, the spores multiply within the grubs, eventually killing them.

• Soil Inoculation: Over time, milky spore builds up in the soil, providing long-term protection against grubs as the spore count increases with each infected grub.

• Safe and Non-Toxic: Milky spore is harmless to humans, pets, and beneficial insects, making it a safe option for grub control.

Organic Grub Killers:

• Neem Oil: Neem oil can be used as a soil drench to control grubs. It disrupts their growth and feeding, eventually leading to their death.

• Natural Ingredients: Our organic grub killers are made from natural ingredients that are safe for use around children and pets, providing effective pest control without harmful chemicals.

Chemical Grub Control:

• Targeted Insecticides: For severe infestations, targeted chemical insecticides can provide quick and effective control of grubs. These products are formulated to penetrate the soil and reach the grubs where they feed.

• Proper Application: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully for safe and effective use. Apply during the grubs' active feeding period for best results.

Lawn Maintenance Practices:

• Proper Watering: Overwatering can make your lawn more attractive to beetles for laying eggs. Water your lawn deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth and make the soil less hospitable to grubs.

• Aeration: Regularly aerate your lawn to improve soil drainage and root health, making it more resilient to grub damage.

• Healthy Lawn Practices: Maintaining a healthy lawn through regular mowing, fertilizing, and proper watering can help it withstand and recover from grub damage more effectively.

Monitoring and Detection:

• Regular Inspections: Check your lawn regularly for signs of grub activity, such as brown patches, wilting, or turf that lifts easily from the soil.

• Grub Counts: Perform a grub count by digging a small section of turf and examining the soil for grubs. This helps determine the severity of the infestation and the necessary treatment.

Expert Support:

• Personalized Advice: Our knowledgeable team is available to provide personalized advice on selecting and using grub control products tailored to your specific needs.

• Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Learn about integrated pest management strategies that combine cultural, biological, and chemical controls for effective and sustainable grub management.
