Grub Control in Utah County & Heber Valley
Grubs are one of the most destructive lawn pests in Utah. These root-feeding insects can cause major damage before most homeowners even realize they’re there. Lawn Doctor’s Grub Control program protects your lawn with both preventive and curative treatments, stopping active grubs and preventing future infestations so your turf stays healthy, thick, and green all season long.
Protect Your Lawn From Hidden Damage
Grubs live below the surface, feeding on grass roots and cutting off the lawn’s ability to take in water and nutrients. Left untreated, a small infestation can rapidly spread, leading to patchy, thinning turf that can quickly deteriorate. Our locally tailored treatments protect your lawn during the peak grub season in Utah.
Preventive Grub Control
The best way to stop grub damage is to prevent it before it starts. Our preventive applications create a protective barrier in the soil that stops grubs from developing and feeding. This is the most effective way to ensure long-term protection for your lawn.
Curative Grub Treatments
If grubs are already active, we apply fast-acting, targeted treatments that stop feeding quickly and help prevent further root loss. Your technician will also assess the level of damage and recommend next steps for promoting recovery.
Common Signs of Grub Activity
If you’re noticing any of the symptoms below, your lawn may already have grub damage:
Brown or yellow patches that don’t respond to watering
Sections of turf that lift up easily like a loose carpet
Increased wildlife activity (birds, skunks) digging for grubs
Sudden thinning or wilting in late summer and early fall
If these symptoms look familiar, a professional inspection is the fastest way to confirm what’s happening below the surface.
