Hey dumbass, if he doesn't have grubs this fall, he will -NOT- have

School yourself in control products next time, before you run your

Steveo, thank you so much for displaying your vastly superior
knowledge and for finding sufficiently vile words to describe my
rotting intellect and stinking carcass.

Perhaps, o enlightened one, you could now explain how Merit applied
too late to kill some of the grubs that hatched this summer would
prevent those grubs from burrowing downwards after their summer

-snip mindless drivel-

The answer is simple, newbie. Those grubs have already pupated into
beetles..get it? Those beetles layed eggs for the next generation,
and Peter's merit application will protect his lawn from -those-
grubs.

If you don't know what the hell you're talking about, keep your
pie hole shut. You do more harm than good!

Steveo, the "mindless drivel" you snipped is carefully researched and
totally accurate. You are the one who is not getting it, so I guess
I'll have to spell it out for you very simply.

Adult Japanese Beetles appear in the spring.

- snip cut/paste -

Is late June to early July considered Spring where you live?

You said "grub eggs would lay dormant until next Spring". I
Say you're full of shit.

Learn the beetles life cycle before trying to advise people
on their control.
