Default Milky Spore Application?

IMHO Summer or early fall is the best time to apply milky spore. It needs
a host to spread and propogate itself and most spring grubs will be
mature(and already have done most of their damage) and less susceptable,
actually this is not quite true but if you know you have a problem with
white grubs or such now or think you will, this is a tough time to control
and other products with quicker knockdown will give more desired results.
If your trying to control a problem now, I would wait for warmer temps when
pest is closer to surface and more likely to come in contact with your
control. A good product that is relatively easy to obtain is Merit. A
spring application should still be effective through the summer.

Hey,

Is now a good time to apply Milky Spore to control the Japanese Beetle
grubs? And what is the best applicator to spread the Milky Spore? And

where
can I buy it for the cheapest price?

Thanks,
Charles
