Time to put down diazinon?
Thanks, Robert. and Wes I am going to insist that we not use it--it
scared me even before I read this stuff. We've got little puppies playing in the yard right now. So now the question is... what do we do about the Japanese beetles?? The milky spore is not working--and that stuff cost a bloody fortune, BTW. I think part of our problem is clay and lack of good drainage, but it's just not feasible to fix that entirely.

The japanese beetles destroyed a lot of our garden and lawn last year, and we put down milky spore (expensive, ouch!) but it hasn't kicked in yet, judging by the grubs that I have found whenever I turn over a log or dig under the turf. And our lawn has become thin and full of chickweed, not to mention moles. Hubby is insisting on putting diazinon on the grass. The bag says apply in 'late spring' --is it time? I'm worried about my dogs... how long do I have to keep them off the grass? Thanks Sue |
