Grub & Armyworm Control in Shenandoah, Columbia, TN

Grubs and armyworms are two very different headaches, but both can ruin your curb appeal in Shenandoah. Grubs work underground, eating your grass roots and leaving your lawn vulnerable to drought. With the recent news regarding the massive Duck River water rate increases, having a deep, healthy root system is more important than ever. If your grass can't access moisture because the roots are gone, your lawn will fail. I handle this by applying a preventive treatment using a novel chemistry that controls both grubs and armyworms simultaneously. It is bee-safe and uses a mode of action that insects cannot develop resistance to.

Armyworms are more dramatic. These pests migrate north from Florida, and when the conditions are right, they can cause an explosion in population. I have seen infestations where the sheer number of larvae makes the ground look like it is moving. They often start along your shrub lines and can eat an entire lawn overnight. Because these outbreaks are unpredictable, my approach is to stay ahead of them. I apply my control program preventively as part of my standard service. You should never wait until you see visible damage to call me. If you wait until the grass is dying, the grubs are too far along for my bee-safe chemistry, and we would have to use much harsher products that I refuse to apply.
