Signs you have lawn pests in Rigby

• Grass that pulls up easily — turf lifting away when the roots have been eaten.

• Birds feeding heavily on the lawn — birds working the turf for grubs and insects.
• Mounds and ant hills in the grass — fire ants or field ants in the lawn.

Why Rigby homes get lawn pests

The volcanic loam and sandy soil that surrounds Rigby is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what lawn pests need to thrive. The the Snake River Plain, mountains, and high desert adds harborage, and the semi-arid climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Snake River and mountain reservoirs see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

We treat the affected areas and apply a preventive treatment to the rest of the lawn, so the pest does not move across the property.

The timing depends on the pest and its lifecycle. Grubs are best treated when they are young, and chinch bugs are treated when the activity peaks in the warm months.

Q: Are the treatments safe for my lawn and my pets?

Yes. The products are applied per the label and watered in as directed, with the pet and re-entry times posted.

Q: How much does lawn pest control cost in Rigby?

Grub treatment runs $200 to $450 in Rigby, with a seasonal lawn insect program from $300 to $600. The cost depends on the size of the lawn and the pest.

Q: Why are the brown patches in my lawn?

Brown patches often come from grubs or chinch bugs feeding on the roots, which makes the turf pull up easily. An inspection confirms which pest is responsible.
