Dealing with lawn grubs, which are larvae of pests like Japanese beetles and June bugs, involves natural strategies to protect your yard. These pests feed on grass roots, leading to brown patches, poor lawn health, and attracting larger animals and insects. Encouraging natural predators such as songbirds and chickens helps curb grub numbers. Reducing soil moisture during peak grub activity can hinder their development. Applying beneficial nematodes and milky spore bacteria provides long-term control, while neem-based treatments and borax offer additional solutions. Improving soil aeration and careful use of insecticides can enhance results. Combining these eco-friendly approaches ensures a healthy, pest-free lawn.
