Japanese Beetles have finally made it to Minnesota and they're
tearing up the garden big time.
Conventional wisdom says it's a waste of time to treat the lawn for
grubs unless you can convince everybody who lives within 3 miles to
do the same.
First time I've ever heard that and don't know where it
came from.
In the context of Japanese beetles, everywhere.
Japanese beetles will travel several miles to find food, so treating
just my own lawn won't eliminate enough of the pests to make a
difference.
