Customer Reviews for Milky Spore Powder

Reviewed several products before deciding on the milky spore powder. Don't expect to realize any control for over two years when applying the powder. Will probably continue to have to over seed and seed many ares of your yard before any results can be realized. Unsure of any benefit when company states milky spore powder can be used in addition to other chemical products. Guessing game.

We had literally several hundred Japanese Beetles every year in our 1/2 acre lot. I bought the 40oz container which was just right for our lot considering house and garage imprint. I made a spreader with a broom stick and a coffee can and distributed as directed, not difficult but takes a little time, it takes about 2-3 years to be fully effective but when it takes it works. We applied in 2020 and in 2023 we had only a dozen or so and in 2024, 3 total! Would highly recommend. I like the fact that no poison is involved and it is a lasting treatment.

If the white grubs in your lawn are a different species, milky spore won't do anything to them. So, make sure it's Japanese beetle grubs you're dealing with first. If the grubs in your lawn are identified as chafers or any species other than Japanese beetle larvae, Milky Spore probably won't be effective

We live in the Maryland mountains. The Japanese beetles are a scourge to everyone. They are so destructive! I applied the Milky Spore to our lawn (about an acre) last fall, following all the instrucitons to the letter. My husband even made me a 'dispenser' out of PVC pipe. The beetles started appearing the last week of June so I immediately put 2 traps out far apart from each other. In years past, I literally caught them by the pound, no kidding! This year I have caught a few--nowhere near previous amounts. I figure the ones that I am trapping are being drawn in by the bait in the traps. Also, I have 3 willow bushes that they normally strip bare. This year, I have only removed about 20 beetles over the course of several days with minimal damage to the bushes. I was doubtful at first and then the price kind of scared me but I thought, what the heck. I'm glad I ordered it and doubly glad it's working!

Milky Spore gets rid of the larvae that moles use for food. It takes about a year to really see the results. But it does the job for many years. I think the last time we used Milky Spore it lasted 20 years. It is well worth the money to get rid of the moles.

I have applied the powder as instructed, but it will be several months before I can know its effectiveness.

To early to tell yet but I put it out per instructions and I really hope it stops these armadillos and raccoons from destroying my Bermuda lawn this year and future years. I done like a man said in a earlier review, I used vacuum cleaner hard pipe to keep from bending over and it worked good,good idea from another reviewer's installation method!

I bought this Milky Spore Powder after reading all the positive reviews about how it eliminates moles from your yard. I applied as directed ,but I still have as many, if not more moles than before. The moles are most likely feeding on the earthworms rather than grubs. I have tried traps and repellents to no avail so I thought I'd give this a try. No Luck.

I thought I would get the same results as long as it wasn't applied in freezing temperatures. I was advised to have optimum results it should be applied in the fall when the grubs were most active. I bought enough to put it out now and again in the fall; plus, I will be spraying for Japanese beetles with Talstar.

We had an infestation of Japanese Beetles in 2019, both in a small tree and in the backyard in some shrubs. They were terrible. We tried some home methods for getting rid of them, and they didn't work. We bought this item and used it as directed in the fall. We had NO beetles this year. It didn't affect the birds, bees or butterflies.

Easy to apply. Can't say about end results as it takes 2 years to have full effect. Seems better alternative to the granular kind. Always buy from domyown.com as great pricing and customer service, any question just give a call and get expert advice.

Milky spore seems to be bringing my lawn back. I think the moles have moved on and I haven't seen any new tunnels! Thanks, Domyown.com

Just applied this powder using own-made applicator. Watered in lightly. Anxious for results next yr and forward, to get rid of squishy mole tunneled garden. I know it works; I applied it nearly 20 yrs ago and only last year did the moles return, with a vengeance. But not for long! I highly recommend this stuff.

Don't waste your money or time It only works for one type of beetle, while they offer full refunds it's not really true You have to dig up your yard find evidence of beetles or grubs mail them to their lab and then they will decide if they are going to refund you or not. Awful company!

My sister used these several years ago, with great results. So, when MY lawn was destroyed by skunks, I went looking for some. DoMyOwn seemed to be the best value for the money. It was easy to apply and hopefully next spring I will I will be grubless and that means next summer I will be skunkless.....

This is by far the best deal that I have found for this product. I applied it to four acres that were ravaged by Japanese Beetles this summer and attacked our orchard. Do not like to use chemical pesticides. This St. Gabriel product is a good alternative when used in combination with biological nematodes.

Milky Spore Powder really works well & easy to apply.

The price was wonderful. Much better than other sites. The product was easy to apply as the reviews said. I won't know how it works nor how effective it is until next Japanese beetle season. I'm counting heavily on it's success.

This stuff works great on Japanese beetle larvae. It's not for the faint of heart to see them once infected by the bacteria. You will instantly know why they call it milky. Die Mutha die!
