Default Re: Japanese beetles?

Hey David, I found a nice article here to read, with option #1 and #2 under Grub Control being key:

Then, there appears to be a place to purchase milkly spore here:

I believe it requires a little time for the milky spore bacteria to infiltrate the grubs, and the dieing process of the grub then spreads the disease to other grubs, or simply hangs out in the lawn until other grubs appear. I like the natural approach to eliminating pests.

Although, I guess one could tip a 55gal drum of Malathion onto the lawn too...
