80010-9 Milky Spore Grub Control Powder, 10 Oz.

St. Gabriel Organics Milky Spore Grub Control is a natural, organic solution for controlling grubs in lawns, gardens, flower beds, and ornamental turfs. This 100% organic grub killer uses Bacillus popilliae, a naturally occurring soil bacterium that targets beetle grubs at their source. Unlike synthetic pesticides, milky spore is safe for children, pets, shrubs, and beneficial insects, making it an environmentally responsible choice for homeowners who want to protect their turf without harmful chemicals.

Once applied to the soil, milky spore establishes itself and remains dormant until grubs begin feeding on grass roots. When grubs ingest the bacteria during feeding, it kills them from the inside out. The key advantage of this product is its long-lasting effectiveness: once established in your soil, milky spore provides grub control for 15 to 20 years, eliminating the need for repeated annual applications. A single 10 oz. container covers up to 2,500 square feet, reducing the number of applications and containers needed.
