Does Your Georgia Lawn Have a Grub Problem?
Pest Control
When it’s summertime in Georgia, everyone pays a little more attention to their lawn. You may be thinking about your lawn and how to protect and grow it. This means fertilizer treatments, seasonal clean-ups, mowing, edging, and more. A bright cared for lawn shows that you take pride in your home or business and is inviting to friends and guests.
Grubs are grimy bugs that infest your soil, keep your lawn from growing properly, and create a great look for your home and garden.
It’s important to remove things that could be causing damage to your Georgia lawn in addition to adding treatments to your yard. While there are a number of things to help your grass thrive, controlling grubs is a big part of it.
