Grub Control for Ohio Lawns
Protect Your Lawn From the Underground Threat
Grubs are one of the most destructive lawn pests in Ohio. These beetle larvae feed on grassroots, causing turf to loosen and peel back like a carpet. At Lawn Control Center, our grub control treatments stop the damage below the surface and help your lawn recover so it looks and feels healthy again.

Why Grubs Are
Such a Threat
Grubs work out of sight, and by the time you notice spongy turf or brown patches, the damage has already begun.
Without roots, grass can’t get water or nutrients — and weeds quickly move in. For homeowners, that means curb appeal drops, play areas for kids and pets shrink, and outdoor spaces lose their comfort and beauty.
Our Grub Control Options
Preventative Protection
The best way to handle grubs is to stop them before they hatch and feed. That’s why we apply preventative treatments before the end of July — right when grubs are starting their life cycle. Preventative treatments are included in our full-service lawn care package and come with a grub-free guarantee. If grubs show up later, we’ll treat them at no cost to you.
Curative Treatments
Already spotting grub damage? We also provide curative grub control to eliminate active infestations. Our technicians will identify the problem and apply professional-grade products that stop grubs fast, saving the lawn from further destruction.
