Milky Spore Grub Control

I'm gonna try applying Milky Spores to my lawn this spring in an attempt to control the grubs. There are numerous areas throughout the lawn that have been damaged by grubs. This past fall there was a grub boom that hit many lawns in the area, including ours. Milky Spores is organic and a safe way to control grubs and will continue to grow and multiply for years to come. No more need to buy and apply pesticides, so everyone wins...except the nasty grub!

Milky Spore is a naturally occurring host specific bacterium (Bacillus popillae-Dutky). This product is lethal to a familiar destructive summer-time pest. It targets and discriminately works to attack the white grubs of Japanese Beetles.

Milky Spores are swallowed by grubs during their normal pattern of feeding; this starts the demise of healthy grubs. Milky Spore disease then begins to cripple the grub, and within the next 7-21 days will eventually die. As the grub decomposes, it releases billions of new spores.

Milky Spore is not harmful to beneficial insects, birds, bees, pets or man. The product is approved and registered with EPA, Milky Spore will not affect wells, ponds or streams.
