grubGONE!

GrubGONE!

Got Japanese Beetle grubs? grubGONE! is certified organic that only affects grubs and does not impact any non-target species, it is also completely safe to humans and pets. Unlike other biological or chemical grub-control products, grubGONE! is an effective control of all life stages of grubs and can therefore be used as a curative treatment for grub control as well as a preventative. We generally recommend two applications.

  • Optimal timing is late July or early August when beetle eggs are hatching and grubs start feeding (preventative treatment).
  • grubGONE! can also be applied through the fall as a curative treatment as well
  • grubGONE! can be effectively applied in the spring. This is especially helpful if animals (moles, skunks, raccoons, birds, etc.) are causing turf damage as they feed on the grubs. A spring grub treatment will not necessarily preclude a second summer/fall treatment, however, as the adult beetles will lay eggs beginning in July and the cycle may begin again.

Be sure to follow directions on the label.
