Grubs gone wild!
 Grubs are prevalent this summer due to the mild winter we experienced. Grubs work their way to the surface from May-August to lay their eggs for the next season. This is the perfect time to control them. If you have had grubs in the past you most likely will have a problem again this summer. Look for unusual bird activity on your lawn. If suddenly you notice a lot of birds on your lawn they are eating something and it could be grubs. Use Jonathan Green Grub Control or Jonathan Green Pest Kill to control grubs. These products get the job done right and kill grubs all season long. Be sure to remove dead thatch before applying grub control products and water them into
the lawn for best results. |
Chasing away chinch bugs
Chinch bugs have been spotted this summer. These destructive bugs suck on the grass plant killing it slowly and efficiently. One of the best defenses against chinch bugs is to plant endophytic enhanced grass seed mixtures. Our Black Beauty grass seed contains endophytes which are naturally occurring defenses in the grass plant that taste bad to chinch bugs. Another way to control chinch bugs is with Jonathan Green Lawn Insect Control. This product controls over 30 pests including chinch bugs, ticks, fleas, ants and grubs.
