Protecting Lawns Against Common Pests
Weeds, grubs and turf diseases are three of the biggest threats to a healthy, green lawn. They compete for nutrients, weaken the soil and can quickly undo months of care if left untreated. In Salamander Bay, sandy soils and humid coastal conditions make local lawns particularly vulnerable to fungal infections and pest activity.
At Crafted Greens, our turf, grub and weed control services combine proven treatments with preventative strategies to restore balance and protect your grass long-term. With options included across our Classic, Deluxe and Elite packages, we’ll tailor the solution to your property’s needs.

Our Lawn Protection Services
Weeds, grubs and turf diseases each require a different approach, but together they form the foundation of our lawn protection services. Here’s how we tackle them:

- Weed Control
Weeds steal vital nutrients and water from your lawn, often spreading faster than grass can compete. Our treatments are designed to selectively target unwanted growth while protecting turf health and density. - Grub Control
Lawn grubs feed on grassroots, leading to yellowing and thin patches. With professional treatments, we break the cycle before major damage occurs, allowing the lawn to recover quickly. - Disease Control
Fungal problems can spread rapidly in Salamander Bay’s humid climate. Our disease management treatments help suppress infections, strengthen the turf and restore healthy growth. - Prevention
Ongoing monitoring and timely applications reduce the chance of re-infestation. By building a stronger lawn through nutrition and resilience, we limit future outbreaks naturally.
The Science Behind Control
Grubs, weeds and diseases thrive when lawns are weakened by stress, poor nutrition or unfavourable soil conditions. Weeds compete with grass for light and nutrients, while grubs feed directly on the root system, cutting off the lawn’s ability to absorb water and minerals. Turf diseases are typically fungal in nature, spreading rapidly in the warm, humid conditions common to Salamander Bay and leaving patches of discoloured, thinning grass.
Effective control is about more than simply removing the problem—it’s about restoring balance to the lawn’s ecosystem. By improving soil health, strengthening root structures and applying targeted treatments, we create an environment where grass can outcompete weeds and resist pests naturally. Over time, this reduces the need for repeated chemical intervention and builds a lawn that is healthier, stronger and more resilient to future challenges.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I spot the early signs of lawn disease?
Early signs often include small discoloured patches or unusual growth patterns. If left untreated, these areas expand rapidly and weaken the lawn. Moist, humid conditions like those common in coastal areas can accelerate the spread. A prompt professional assessment helps stop problems before they get worse.
Why are grubs so destructive to lawns?
Grubs feed directly on grassroots, severing the plant from its nutrient source. This leads to sudden thinning, dead spots and weak turf that peels back easily. The damage also makes lawns more vulnerable to weeds and diseases. Controlling grubs quickly prevents large-scale turf loss.
Are chemical treatments the only option for weed control?
No, weed control often combines chemical and cultural practices. Strengthening soil health and encouraging dense turf growth makes it harder for weeds to establish. Selective sprays are applied only where necessary for precision. This integrated approach creates sustainable long-term results.
