... And it's time to look for annual white grubs. If you had a large population of beetles this summer, chances are good that you'll have a large population of white grubs. Inspect the soil around the roots of your grass carefully. Grubs are small and very susceptible to the products we use to treat them. If you find more than say, 3 or 4 per square foot, treat them RIGHT NOW, while it's hot. Don't wait until fall--they'll be too big. Don't wait until spring, they'll be too big and too deep. Get'em now.
