Spring Pest Alert: Protect Your Lawn from Common Invaders

Spring in Indianapolis means one thing for lawns: pests are on the move. Left unchecked, they can wreak havoc on your grass—but with the proper prevention, your lawn can stay healthy and green all season. SunBlest Lawn Care provides pest control services to stop invaders before they take over so you can enjoy a flawless yard without the hassle.

Grubs: Harmful Lawn Feeders

Grubs, the larvae of beetles like Japanese and June beetles, can quickly damage your lawn by feeding on its roots. This leads to unsightly brown patches and weakened turf. If you notice early signs of grub damage this April, proactive treatments are key to preventing further destruction.

Ants: More Than an Annoyance

Ants may seem harmless, but their mounds can disrupt your lawn's surface. Additionally, some species can become a nuisance indoors. Spotting ant activity early allows for effective pest management before they take over.

Mosquitoes: Protect Your Outdoor Fun

April showers can lead to standing water, creating the perfect breeding grounds for mosquitoes. These pests can ruin outdoor gatherings and pose health risks.

Chinch Bugs: The Hidden Threat

Chinch bugs are tiny yet destructive pests that feed on the sap of grass blades, often turning grass yellow or brown in spots. Early identification and professional pest control are essential to mitigate their impact on your lawn.
