A healthier lawn starts with the right approach.
Brown patches are not always caused by drought. Grubs feed below the surface on turf roots, while chinch bugs and other surface-feeding insects can thin or discolor grass during warm weather. Green Carpet Lawn Care provides lawn insect and grub control in Somers, CT based on the pest, life cycle, damage, and time of year.
Accurate identification matters. Treating the wrong problem wastes time and may allow damage to spread. We examine symptoms and site conditions, then recommend preventive or corrective treatment as appropriate. Insect control is coordinated with watering, fertility, and recovery steps so damaged turf has the support it needs.

Frequently asked questions
Insect Control FAQs
How can I tell if my lawn has grubs?
Possible signs include irregular brown areas, turf that lifts easily because roots are damaged, increased animal activity, and visible larvae beneath the surface. An inspection is the best way to confirm the cause.
When should grub control be applied in Connecticut?
Preventive treatments are usually timed for young larvae, while corrective timing depends on active damage and the grub life cycle. Weather and local conditions can shift the ideal window.
Are all brown lawn patches caused by insects?
No. Drought, disease, compacted soil, pet damage, and nutrient problems can look similar. Correct diagnosis should come before treatment.
Will damaged grass grow back after insect treatment?
Light damage may recover with proper moisture and nutrition. Severely thinned or bare areas may require seeding after the insects are controlled.
