Abstract/Contents: | Grubs are the larvae of hard-shelled beetles. They are whitish larvae with brown heads and are usually found lying in a C-shaped position in the soil in the root zone of grass. The most effective time to control any grub is during its early instar stage. Grubs damage lawns by chewing on the root system. Therefore, when applying an insecticide it must be watered in. The availabel insecticides are, Diazinon, Dylox, and Proxol. These materials can effect enzymes in our bodies called cholinesterase. |
