A broken hip is a fracture in the upper portion of your thighbone, or femur. Your hip is a joint, which is a point where two or more bones come together. The top of your femur and part of your pelvic bone meet to form your hip. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint.
If your lawn did not suffer from grub damage, your early spring lawn care will be much more pleasant. Raking the lawn, with a leaf rake, will remove any debris which collected over the winter and will give the lawn an overall tidier appearance. Be sure to add the collected organic debris to the compost.
When to Apply Controls. Grubs need to be controlled before they grow, become beetles and fly. The best time to apply control products is early in the season as the soil is warming up. At that point, the insects are in the larval stage. To help ensure the product reaches the grubs, mow and dethatch the lawn before application. After applying, water the area well to help the grub control product soak into the soil and reach the roots where the grubs are feasting.
