Merit Insecticide Question
Peter wrote:
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 Peter It doesn't matter. The grubs have become Japanese beetles and are flying around now. Reapply before July 4 next year. |
