Under your bed
To get rid of grubs cheap n easy with no poison involved, go to the dollar store and buy a large box or 3 of powdered laundry detergent. Sprinkle all over the area you suspect there are grubs and turn on the water sprinkler for an hour.
The whitening ingredient, I'm trying to remember the name but I think its Sodium percarbonate, AKA, sodium carbonate peroxide, and that will drive them up to die quickly. Dont use too much water too fast, just enough to mimic a 1/4" or 3/8" of rain. I have done this and it worked overnight.

To get rid of grubs, turn off security lights. Those attract the beetles that produce the grubs.
Doesn’t work for me. We live in the country and there are no lights at night around our property. We don’t have any security lights. We have flood lights on the corners of the house we turn on for a few minutes a couple times a night just to look outside for varmits, but other than that———darkness. We still have armadillos. I have eliminated a total of twenty three so far this year.
