Grubs and raccoons and skunks and crows, and oh what a mess. Chafer grubs are the larvae of chafer beetles, which are common garden pests known for feeding on the roots of grass and other plants. Raccoons and those other two, on the other hand, are omnivorous mammals known for their scavenging habits. By consulting us at Go Green Pest Control we can manage these pests effectively, by addressing both the chafer grub infestation and implementing strategies to deter raccoons, skunks and crows, we can help mitigate damage to your lawn or garden. These animals are opportunistic feeders and may indeed consume chafer grubs if they find them in the soil. They are known to dig up lawns and gardens in search of food, including grubs, insects, small animals, fruits, and vegetables. However, it’s important to note that while these pests may target areas where chafer grubs are present, they typically do not solely rely on them as a food source.
If you’re dealing with chafer grub infestation in your lawn or garden and are concerned about raccoons causing damage while foraging for grubs, here are several measures you can take to address the issue. These include: grub control, physical barriers, secure garbage bins, scare tactics and habitat modification.
