The aim of this master´s thesis was the evaluation of options that should lead to the elimination of the harmful effects of the white grubs of Melolontha hippocastani to the gradational area of Moravian Sahara (part of forest maintenance LS Stážnice, the Bzenec district). The effectiveness of chosen preparations (Force 1,5 G and Actara 25 WP) on the white grubs of Melolontha hippocastani was observed and conducted under controlled conditions in the ´container experiment´ with 380 seedlings of Pinus sylvestris. This experiment was repeatedly conducted five times over a period of 3 years. The results show that the most effective preparation against the white grubs is Actara 25 WG (200 up to 400 g/ha/600 l water) in the form of watering. This preparation in the form of spraying was ineffective. Inconsistent results were reached with the preparation Force 1,5 G. At the same time, the vertical movements of white grubs during their development stages in the soil were being observed over the period of 2015–2018. This observation took place in the drill holes of the following proportions 50 x 50 x 60–140 cm. The results confirmed that the depth of wintering of the white grubs and their movements during their vegetative state depends on the soil´s temperature and moisture, and the available sources of food to the current instar of the white grub.
