Are they bad for just your lawn or flower gardens too?i am putting in a new bed,side of my lawn, & found grubs

I tilled a corner part of my lawn to put ina new flower bed, and I found grubs. Are they going to be bad for my plants too or just grass? I am new at this if you can't tell. :)


Thanks for your help.

Your grass was doing fine before you found that it had grubs. In spite of all the talk, grubs do very little damage to either lawns or plants. I wouldn't get carried away trying to deal with a problem that you don't really have.
Reply:Grubs are bad for flowers and grass. They eat the roots from the bottom up. You need to treat the lawn and the flowerbed for these destructive little critters. Beneficial nematodes will take care of them, and any other predatory insect.

Reply:They will literaly tear a lawn or garden up after awhile..I use spectracide triazicide to control mine..At the beginning of spring I use the bottle that selfs dispenses and attaches to a water hose..then a week later I back that up with the spectracide granuals...I have had them completely destroy my garden before..at the begiining of spring you may not notice any damage ..but when it even gets warmer..itcan or will destroy the garden or lawn..These products are available at lowes,home depot, or walmart
