Grub Control White grubs eat organic matter including the roots of plants. Therefore, damage first appears to be drought stress. Heavily infested turf appears off color, gray-green, and wilts rapidly in the hot sun. Continued feeding will cause the turf to die in large irregular patches. The tunneling of the larvae cause the turf to feel spongy under foot and the turf can often be rolled back like a loose carpet.	Core Aeration In addition to reducing compaction, core aeration also allows water, oxygen, and nutrients to reach the root system of your lawn. This helps create a more dense turf with a higher stress tolerance for drought and disease. We recommend that all lawns are aerated at least once every year, preferably in the fall when the root system is growing vigorously. If your lawn has thin areas, you may consider aerating in both the spring and the fall for even better results.	Thatch When the thatch layer grows thicker than 1.5 cm it becomes detrimental to the health of the lawn. Excessive thatch inhibits the movement of water, nutrients and air into the soil, resulting in shallow roots and a lawn highly susceptible to drought and root feeding insect damage. Excessive thatch also makes it difficult to control root feeding insects. The thatch layer impedes the movement of pest controls into the soil, reducing the efficacy of the treatment. A thick thatch layer is the perfect environment for some insects (i.e. chinch bugs), which can cause extensive damage. Dethatching your lawn is recommended every 1-4 years depending upon the thatch build-up.	Liming Lime is applied to the soil of lawns to increase the soil pH. Soil pH, a measure of the soil's acidity or alkalinity, can directly influence the vigor and quality of the home lawn. Applications of enough lime to raise the soil pH above 6.0 can increase the availability of these nutrients, thus making it easier to maintain the quality and vigor of the lawn. Lime can be applied at any time during the year. The turf should be irrigated after application in order to wash any lime off of the turfgrass leaves.
