Insect/Grub Control Services
At Fairways Lawn Care, we specialize in preventing and treating grub infestations so your turf stays thick, green and healthy
Some key indicators of grub damage:
-
Patches of lawn that lift up like carpet (because the roots have been eaten out)
-
Lawn feels spongy underfoot, even after watering
-
Increased presence of skunks, raccoons, birds digging in your turf — they’re hunting the grubs
Left untreated, grub damage can spread and severely compromise your lawn’s health.
Our specialized Grub Control program
At Fairways Lawn Care we’ve tailored our grub-control service to the needs of Chester County lawns. Here’s what the program includes:
1. Inspection & diagnosis
We’ll assess your lawn and look for signs of grub activity (roots eaten, turf lifting, digging animals).
2. Preventative application
Ideally timed when grubs are most vulnerable (before heavy root damage) to block their lifecycle.
3. Curative treatment
If damage is already visible, we apply proven treatments to arrest the problem and protect the turf while it recovers.
4. Post-treatment follow-up
We monitor your lawn’s response, and if insufficient improvement is seen, we’ll revisit and apply follow-up care (as part of our service guarantee).
5. Expert advice
We explain what you’ll see, what signs to watch for, and how to support turf recovery (watering schedule, mowing height, overseeding necessity).

What to expect & what you can do
Timing & turf response: Treating for grubs is most effective when timed correctly (typically early summer for preventative applications before heavy feeding occurs). If damage has already set in, recovery may require overseeding and extra maintenance.
You can help:
-
Keep your lawn properly watered (especially after treatment) so the product reaches the root zone.
-
Maintain healthy mowing and fertilization practices — damaged turf recovers best when support is given.
-
Inspect for animal digging or lifting turf patches and notify us early — the sooner we intervene, the less long-term damage.
Our commitment: We’ll provide a clear treatment schedule, demonstrate visible improvement, and revisit if needed under our guarantee.
