Grub & Insect Control

Grubs and lawn insects like chinch bugs and sod webworms can destroy your lawn from beneath the surface — often before you even realize they’re there. Pro Cut offers both preventative and curative treatments to stop pests before they spread.

Protect Your Lawn from Hidden Damage

We inspect for activity throughout the season and apply treatments only when necessary, so you get targeted protection without overdoing it.

Common Signs of Grub Damage:

Brown patches that peel up like carpet
Increased presence of birds or animals digging at your lawn

Our Solutions:

Curative treatments as needed
Optional add-ons to fertilization programs

Don’t wait for the damage to spread — protect your lawn early with trusted insect control from your local Green Bay lawn care experts.

Stop Lawn Damage Before It Starts

Pro Cut Lawn Service offers two products for grub control & prevention. One will protect your lawn before the problem occurs, and the other will eliminate the grubs if they already exist and are causing damage.

Grub Prevention: After application, the grub prevention will prevent the next generation of grubs from causing any damage. This can be applied in spring and fall. (2 applications recommended)

Sub Surface Insecticide: This application is performed if you already have a grub problem, the product should be watered in. This application will eliminate the current generation of grubs and will prevent further damage

Stop the life cycle to help prevent Grub problems before they start.

Timing is everything to stop the life cycle. Grub Control helps stop the eggs from developing into the damaging, hungry grub larva that feed on your grass roots. To be effective Grub Control is applied when eggs are present before they molt into larva. Grub Control can be added to Application 2 of our Weed & Feed Lawn Care Program.

Grub damage on a lawn typically manifests in several ways:

Brown, Dead Patches:
Grub damage often causes irregular patches of brown or dead grass to appear on your lawn. These patches may start small but can expand over time as the grubs continue to feed on the grass roots.
Loose, Spongy Turf: As the grubs feed on the grassroots, the turf may become loose and spongy underfoot. This is because the grass is no longer firmly anchored in the soil due to the damage caused by the grubs.

Increased Pest Activity:
Grub-infested lawns may attract pests such as birds, skunks, raccoons, or moles that feed on grubs. If you notice an increase in pest activity in your lawn, it could be a sign of a grub infestation.

Presence of Grubs:
When inspecting your lawn, you may find the grubs themselves just below the soil surface. Grubs are small, C-shaped larvae with white or cream-colored bodies and brown heads. Finding a high concentration of grubs in the soil is a clear indicator of grub infestation.

Wilting Grass, Even with Sufficient Watering:
Despite regular watering, areas of your lawn may still appear wilted or dry. This is because the grubs have damaged the grass roots, preventing them from absorbing water and nutrients effectively.

If you suspect that your lawn has grub damage, it’s essential to take action to address the infestation promptly. Consult with a lawn care professional at Pro Cut Lawn Services for appropriate treatment options
