Asked by Patrick from Wisconsin Rapids, Wi04/15/2013QI've read that imidacloprid kills honey bees, which I have, and a big Japaneese Beetle problem. Options?A

Read Full Answer »The problem with the honey bees is when they gather nectar and pollen from treated plants. In this case you will likely be treating your lawn and not flowering trees and bushes which should limit the exposure to the honey bees. The other option would be to use Milky Spore to control the grubs. Milky Spore is not harmful to anything except for Japanese beetle grubs. Milky Spore Powder is a natural, safe, effective grub control product that can remain in the soil for up to twenty years. This is an OMRI certified organic control of Japanese beetle grub control that is safe to use with other herbicides and insecticides that is safe to use around birds, bees, pets and fish and around pools and ponds. Milky Spore Powder contains Bacillus popillae, a bacterium that kills grubs by multiplying inside the grubs, causing them to die. The spores are then dispersed in nearby soil, which is how the product is able to exist in your soil for so long and even comes with a ten-year guarantee. -

We have never had any reports that the Imigold 0.5G causes grubs to be more active after the treatment. It does make sense though that after an insect such as a grub comes into contact with an insecticide that they will start to behave a bit differently as many of the insecticides interrupt their ne…

Read Full Answer »The Imigold 0.5 Granules are not the same as the Premise Granules. Imigold is specifically for use in yards for grub and other lawn infesting insects that feed on turf. While the active ingredient is the same, the carrier is different in the two products and it has a completely different base and is formulated to be used on different insects. Premise is specifically designed for wood destroying insects like termites which is why it is labeled for that control and the Imigold is not. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
