Milky Spore Lawn Spreader Mix may be difficult to do a proper application by hand as it is an extremely fine granule, that is why the drop spreader is needed to apply over each square foot. We would suggest contacting St. Gabriel Organics at directly at 540-672-0866 for advise on how to apply their product in areas where a drop spreader will not reach by hand. The Milky Spore Lawn Spreader Granules do require six applications usually in Spring,, Summer and Fall for 2 consecutive years to build up the one area to one million spores.
The Milky Spore Powder may be a better option as this uses a lawn dispenser tube to apply in a checkerboard pattern. One 10 oz container will treat 2,500 square feet and one 40 oz container will treat 10,000 square feet.
