We have problems here with crows destroying lawns to dig up grubs.

A local sod farmer told me they shoot one and leave it dead in the field. All the other crows show up for a crow funeral and when they leave they dont come back. They remember the crow that died there and treat the area as dangerous.

If grubs are numerous enough for crows or moles or anything else to invade your lawn, the grubs themselves would have killed your lawn.

Ive seen it so many times on lawns "Oh no the moles are killing my yard, what do I do?" "Buy grub control" "I bought mole pesticide and traps instead because I don't care about grubs, what are these giant dead spots in my yard now?" "Grubs, because you killed the only thing suppressing the grubs."

If you're in the PNW, those invasive grubs were going to destroy your lawn anyway.

My uncle had a bunch robbing his stationary (dog) feeder. So he shot one and hung it above the feeder.

It solved the problem.

While there are times crows need to be dealt with (see the horrors of Chatham, Ont + crows), those grubs eat the roots of grasses.

So you can let the crows have your grubs, or the grubs your grass.

How dare their need to feed spoil a lawn's appearance...
