white grub
Lawn pest grub
A white grub is the larval stage of various beetles, especially June bugs and Japanese beetles—pale, C-shaped, soft-bodied creatures found in soil.
White grubs feed on grass roots, making them a common lawn pest: The brown patches turned out to be white grub damage.
Gardeners and farmers treat them as serious pests.
