St. Gabriel Organics Milky Spore Powder Grub Control, 40oz | Natural, Organic, Long-Lasting, Japanese Beetle Grub Repellent for Lawns, Garden Beds & Mulch, Covers 10,000 sq ft

Milky Spore is a bit pricey but when you consider that one application of the powder will protect for nearly ten years then it is well worth the investment. I applied the powder in April of 2019 and it is still doing the job. It is a fantastic product!I saw some comments about the safety of this product. Milky Spore will only harm Japanese Beetle Grubs and will have no effect on any other insect. Milky Spore Powder is a natural, safe and effective grub control product that is OMRI certified organic. It does not affect pets, beneficial insects, fish, bees, birds, other animals, plants, or man. It is not a poison. You just need to ensure that your pets are not in the area while you are applying the power. After the powder is watered in there will be no issues for humans, pets or wild life.I've done several videos on this product on my YouTube channel, Bud's Smart Home if you want to source more information on proper application of the powder.

Works great

Cost is crazy for this product. Such a small bag as well. Just applied this to the lawn, hope it actually works in time. I'm sure it'll work though. Searching for this product in stores wasn't easy as well. Could only find the grandules not the powder. Interesting.

Worked great at killing off the grubs in my yard. We didn't know we had an issue until our dog got skunked...3 times! Did my research and found out the skunks (and possum, racoons, etc.) are coming into your yard to eat the grubs. Easy to apply. I made my own PVC application tube as I'll be doing this again this year.

This is the quality milky spore disease powder, and the powder is a waaaay better deal than the granules; check the amount in each.This lasts about five years for us, and sixth year the moles start coming back near the edge of where it was placed.I "slice" the earth with a spade about 500-600 times on 1 acre lot, powder the hole from a cup of powder, then step on it. DO ONLY WHEN SOIL IS 60F+!The first year, grubs that are black on one end turn all white, which means infected with Milky spore.The following Spring your earthworms disappear due to carnivore moles not finding grubs, then moles tunnel over to your neighbor's lawn!Scattered mole tunnels began reappearing after fifth year, but not as bad as neighbor's lawn always is,Beware of copycat packaging that doesn't say St. Gabriels, but packaging is same color!

The joyous sight of kids and pets tumbling all over a yard isn't so joyous when wondering about chemical exposures. So I didn't apply anything for years until I found the Milky Spore instead. Meanwhile, the grubs flourished and a skunk family happily followed. Since the infestation was bad, I started with a round of beneficial nematodes for some more immediate relief, then for longevity, I applied Milky Spore in 2004 to my and my parents' white grub infested yards and am only since last year starting to see a few grubs returning. I might not even have had those if not for a tree line that's been pushed back further exposing some previously untreated areas and some possible neighboring infestations that inched their way back through that area, as well as some new likely carried in on some new topsoil added over the years. Last year I purchased enough to finish most of both yards again and this order this Spring finished that job up. The lawn is lush and green and no sign of any grubs once again in the veggie, flower or shrub beds. Plenty of those are typically favorites of japanese beetles and grubs too. Of all the yard and garden maintenance there can be to do, this has got to be one of the easiest, least expensive on average, best bang for the buck and effort to do. The rewards are easy and fairly quick - and the best reward of all is no chemicals on any foods, hands or feet tracking into and through the house.

works as it should.

Have used before (2016) , gas company replaced gas line and used fill dirt. Need to replenish soil!
