When we bought our condo, the builder planted spirea bushes in front of all of the houses in the neighborhood. Those pretty pink flowers were quite attractive – to Japanese beetles and grubs.
Commercial grub killers from the big box store do not work for me which I only tried as a last resort. I was leery of what the
90% OTHER INGREDNETS listed on the ingredients label
actually were since they had a warning about not using the stuff around kids, dogs, and fish ponds.
The only thing that worked was using the all natural, people and pet safe organic grub killing combo of
Milky Spore powder and
Beneficial nematodes in my flowerbeds.

Now if I was smart and applied Milky Spore to my grass and lawn when I did the flower bed years ago, the good Milky Spore bacteria would have been fruitful and multiplied in the soil throughout my property by now.
While the flower beds are naturally pest free but I found a grub in the yard recently and where there is one grub there are a dozen or more. Live and learn should have applied my organic pest killer to the yard too. But my shortsightedness is your gain because I can write you a quick and easy tutorial.
