Grub & Armyworm Control in Sagewood Estates, Columbia, TN

Grubs and armyworms are the two biggest threats to a healthy yard in Columbia. Grubs live underground and eat your grass roots, which leaves your lawn defenseless against heat and the recent water rate increases we are seeing in Maury County. If you wait until you see the damage, you often have to use harsh chemicals like Dylox that are unpleasant to be around. I take a different approach by applying a preventive treatment using a novel, bee-safe chemistry that controls both grubs and armyworms simultaneously. Because this chemistry is so new, insects cannot develop a resistance to it.

Armyworms are much more dramatic. These pests arrive via migrating moths and can cause a massive infestation every few years. They usually start along your shrub lines and move outward so fast that your entire lawn can be eaten overnight. During a bad year, there are so many larvae that the ground actually looks like it is moving. It is a fascinating process to watch, but it is devastating for your property value and curb appeal. My standard plan includes these preventive applications to stop these pests before they can destroy your turf. This proactive step ensures your grass can focus its energy on growing rather than fighting off pests or struggling through the Middle Tennessee summer heat.
