Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
Considering that one bag of grub control product can cover 5,000 sq ft for approximately $30, a basic preventative application could be priced competitively, especially if it's a DIY-focused offering. For a professional service, expect to charge in the 'Mid-range' of $100–$169 to cover labor, expertise, and product. If you're bundling it as an add-on, individual grub prevention services typically run $50 to $150.
Preventative grub control products should be applied before mid-August for maximum effectiveness. Applying too late, such as after early October, is not effective for preventative measures. Pricing for preventative treatments is generally lower than corrective applications because it requires less material and labor compared to addressing an active, damaging infestation.
When grub damage is already apparent, corrective treatment is necessary. This falls into the 'Premium' tier. The cost to treat an entire lawn with corrective material is approximately $100-$125. Be aware that if the damage is extensive, the cost to renovate a grub-infested lawn could range from $4,500 to $7,500 for an average 5,000 square feet, which would be a separate, more extensive project than just grub control.
Professional grub control services involve several factors that contribute to a higher cost than DIY options. These include the use of higher-grade, often more effective materials, specialized application equipment, the expertise and labor involved in proper application, and the guarantee of results. Lawn care companies often recommend preventative treatments as part of their programs because materials often cost more than other lawn treatment applications. While a bag for 5,000 sq ft might cost $30, the professional service covers more than just the material cost.
Grub prevention typically runs $50 to $150 as an add-on service. Flea and tick control, another popular add-on, costs $50 to $100 per application. While both are pest control, grub control often involves more specialized materials and application for subsurface pests, slightly differentiating their pricing.
