Diazinon replacements...not!

I moved this year and the new house had a poor lawn. I have much improved it but I am having grub problems. I have tried 3 of the products now in the stores: season lawn control, triacide?, and sevin. None have worked, peel up a patch of sod and I still see live grubs each time! Diazanon worked without fail in the past but is now unavailable. Any suggestions for something that really works. (Other than a 55 gal drum of Malathion concentrate applied directly. That is what the guy at the local home center jokenly reccommended.) Jim I wish I'd known that diazanon was being outlawed -- I would have bought a gallon of it like I did dursban. I still have about a pint of 50% diazanon; that ought to last me a long time cuz I don't use it much (I just like to have it available.) I think there's a natural grub killer call "milky spore". I don't know much about it because grubs are not a big problem here. Or maybe you just need to turn some moles loose in your yard. Best regards, Bob |
