Can anyone please help me in preventing leatherjackets getting into the lawn. I do not wish to use chemicals as I have a dog.

Treat the lawn with nematodes specifically for leatherjackets. Totally safe for dog and wildlife (except leatherjackets)

You can buy them online.

There is no preventative, but if you get them in your lawn treat the lawn with nematodes specifically for leatherjackets. Totally safe for dog and wildlife (except leatherjackets)
