Is Your Lawn Patchy, Thin, or Dying?

It might not just be your soil — grubs could be destroying your lawn from below.

Grubs feed on your lawn’s roots, leaving behind dead patches, thinning grass, and damage that spreads fast if left untreated.

The key is timing — treating them early in the season before the damage gets worse.

Frequently Asked Lawn Program Questions

  • The best time to aerate lawns in Thunder Bay is during the spring and fall growing seasons. Aeration helps relieve soil compaction and allows water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach the grass roots more effectively.

  • Lawn aeration removes small plugs of soil from the ground to reduce compaction. This allows grass roots to grow deeper, improves nutrient absorption, and helps lawns grow thicker and healthier.

  • Yes. Overseeding after aeration allows grass seed to fall into the holes created by the aerator, improving seed-to-soil contact and increasing the chances of successful germination.

  • Most lawns begin showing improvement within a few weeks depending on weather and watering conditions. Overseeded areas typically begin germinating within 7–21 days.

  • Lawn aeration pricing depends on lawn size and condition. Most services start around the minimum $125 service price, with larger lawns requiring additional pricing based on square footage.

  • Yes. Regular watering helps new grass seed germinate and establish properly. Light watering once or twice daily during the early growth period helps improve results.

  • Yes. Many lawns in Thunder Bay benefit from aeration due to soil compaction caused by foot traffic, mowing equipment, and long winters. Heavy snow buildup over the winter can compact the soil as it melts and settles in the spring, making it harder for water, oxygen, and nutrients to reach the grass roots. Lawn aeration helps relieve this compaction by removing small plugs of soil, allowing the lawn to breathe and absorb nutrients more effectively. Aeration is typically most beneficial during the spring or fall growing seasons when grass is actively growing.
