If you own a home in Texas, you'll want to stay vigilant in protecting your lawn from grubs. That's because if these tiny pests infest your lawn, they will start munching on the roots of your grass, which can cause serious damage to your lawn. The best way to protect your lawn from grubs is by investing in preventative grub control. However, the timing of this treatment is crucial to its success. If you apply this treatment too early, it could wear off before grubs become a problem, and if you apply it too late, it won't work because it doesn't stop current grub infestations. For this treatment to be effective, you should apply it around June, as this is the sweet spot because it's early enough to get grubs before they become a problem, but not too early that the treatment will wear off. What's more, these treatments only provide protection from grubs for one life cycle, so you should invest in a preventative treatment every year to ensure that grubs never get a chance to destroy your lawn!


What time of the year should you apply a preventative grub control treatment to your lawn?

When it comes to preventing grubs from your lawn, timing is everything. Preventative grub control treatments work by sinking down into your soil and eliminating grubs before they have the chance to start feasting on the roots of your grass. Here in Texas, you'll want to apply a preventative grub control treatment to your lawn around June, as this is right before grubs start hatching.


What happens if you apply a preventative grub control treatment too early or too late?

While preventative grub control treatments have been proven to be highly effective, they will only provide their intended benefits if they are applied at the right time. If you apply the treatment too early, it could wear off by the time grubs start hatching, meaning it won't work and your lawn could become infested. On the other hand, applying preventative grub control treatments too late can also spell trouble for your lawn. That's because these treatments only work on newly hatched grubs. So, if you apply the treatment too late, it won't eliminate mature grubs, and they'll be able to start wreaking havoc on your lawn. If you apply a preventative treatment too early or too late, you could still end up with a grub problem, and if you do, you'll have to invest in a curative treatment to eliminate them, and then deal with the damage that they caused to your lawn.

If your lawn fell victim to a grub infestation, you can schedule fertilization treatments to help it recover.


Make sure to invest in a preventative grub control treatment every year!

When it comes to preventative grub control treatments, their effectiveness doesn't last forever. That means if you want to keep your property protected next year, you'll need to invest in another treatment, and then continue to do so every year. Skipping out on a treatment for even a year can open up the window for grubs to make your property their home. So, if you want to ensure your lawn never falls victim to a grub infestation, you'll need to invest in a preventative treatment every year.
