I spread a 14 pound bag of Bayer Merit granulated on my yard last night, and
watered the lawn afterward with between 0.25 and 0.5 inches of water to wash
it in. I'm attempting to kill Japanese beetle grubs - have had a bad
problem for the last tow years. I applied the Merit at a heavier rate than
recommended. The recommended rate is 2.8 lbs/1000, I used 3.8 lbs/1000. My
soil is clay and perculates a little slow.

Tonight we had a heavy thunderstorm and heavy rain. We got about 1 inch of
rain in about 15 minutes.

My question is; did all of my Merit wash away? Should I reapply?

Thanks

It doesn't matter. The grubs have become Japanese beetles and are
flying around now. Reapply before July 4 next year.
