Despite using beneficial nematodes for masked chafer and Japanese beetle grubs in 2012, 15-20% lawn damage occurred in August. Homeowner prefers non-chemical options but asks for 2013 advice.
Expert Answer: Nematodes and Milky Spore are effective but prone to application errors. Standard treatment is imidacloprid (Merit) – see control options. Note: imidacloprid is implicated in honey bee colony collapse; follow label carefully.
