APPLICATION DIRECTIONS

For Lawns: Adjust spreader to the proper setting (see Spreader Settings). To be sure you cover the entire area uniformly, first treat the border of the lawn then fill in the center. Make parallel passes, walking at a steady pace to ensure even distribution of the granules. Water thoroughly after applying. You may spread this product over soil or mulch. If present, remove weed barrier before applying.

For control of Billbugs: Apply when you see first signs of damage, usually 6 weeks after adults first appear. A second application may be necessary for species that have multiple generations.

For control of Grubs, Mole Crickets, or Other Lawn Pests (except Billbugs): Apply when Grubs, insects or damage first appear. The best time to kill grubs is July through September when they are young and actively feeding near the soil surface.

SIGNS OF DAMAGE TO LAWNS

Grubs: White Grubs cause extensive damage to lawns by feeding on grass roots. Grass turns yellow, then brown and dies. Grubs chew of roots so that the grass is easily pulled up in pieces with your hands. You can roll it back like a carpet to reveal the grubs. If patches of dead grass appeared in your lawn late last summer, check for Grubs.

Billbugs: Billbug damage to lawns becomes apparent in late June through August. A heavy infestation can completely destroy a lawn. To confirm that you have a Billbug problem, grab the grass and pull up. If the stalks break easily at ground level, and the stems are hollowed out or packed full of a sawdust-like material, Billbugs are present.

Mole Crickets: Mole Crickets often cause extensive damage by tunneling through lawns. Some species also feed on roots. Tunneling uproots the grass so it easily dries out. Lawns turn yellow, become thin, weedy and can eventually die.

Other Lawn Pests: Armyworms, Sod Webworms, and Cutworms damage lawns by cutting blades of grass near the ground. Small brown patches will appear. Other lawn pests chew or suck on grass, which may cause grass to be weakened and look poor. Other lawn pests can be a nuisance outdoors.

    Product application

    By Glin on 08/11/2023

    To the reviewer that states that the product did not work. Read the instructions. You said that you did an application and then it rained for 4-6 hours in watering in the granular. You were not supposed to use the product when it is supposed to rain. The instructions say to apply in calm non rainy weather. That is why it did not work. The product washed away. This product worked for me after following the instructions. Hooray!

    Did not work

    By Linda on 04/01/2022

    Saw grubs in yard. Ordered this because it said kill grubs in 24 hours. Put out even more than called for and had a good rain 4 hours later in day. It has been 3 weeks since I put it out and grubs are still coming up in the little holes they make. I have purchased the preventive (forgot the name) from you and will try putting it out the first of May to stop the babies from hatching. I sure hope this works as the armadillas wreck havock on my yard to get the grubs. I gave this 2 stars as it was easy to put out and maybe it got a few of the grubs.

    Worked fine to kill grubs. Not a complete fix for moles

    By Greg on 11/12/2024

    I had moles tunneling under new zoysia sod. I applied this product to get rid of grubs which are a mole food source. I applied it after a week of dry weather and heavily watered it in. Within 48 hours all the white grubs had tunneled up to the surface of the sod and died. I'm glad they came to the surface so I could tell the product worked. Unfortunately moles can easily live off of earthworms which are not killed by this product. My mole problem continues. Apparently I need to treat the lawn with a carbaryl based product to kill earthworms. I tried both spike and scissor type mole traps but the moles just bypassed them.
