Product did nothing

I put this product down for last few years in June and has done nothing! Have to replant lawn every year in my back yard! Know they are grubs because I see tons of lady bugs in my pool every year! Just throw my money away! Done with this!

Does not work at all (I tried multiple times)

This product simply does not prevent grubs. I've tried two years in a row and applied exactly as directed. Each July I have lawn damage and the cause is obvious. White grubs everywhere.

Simply put- it works. No grub issues all summer

I applied the insect control in the early spring as directed. I had no issues with lawn insects. As a result I had much fewer voles in the yard. My lawn looks better as a result.

GrubEX

Bought this product today to treat grub worms in my yard. Had I realized that I needed 1 inch of water after applying to my lawn, I would have NEVER purchased the product. Disappointed.

Light bag

The bag that covers 5000 ft.² does not cover 5000 ft.². I use your other products and the ones that claim they cover 5000 ft.² cover 5000 ft.². I end up buying two bags of Grubex.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Grubex1 Season Long Grub Killer and appreciate your feedback. Have you recently checked the calibration on your spreader? Some spreaders can go out of calibration over time and should be checked periodically. Did you overlap properly? With broadcast spreaders, you want to overlap about 1 foot on each swath. With drop spreaders, you want to line up your wheel marks. Were you walking faster or slower than usual? Your walking pace will affect the rate of application. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee. If for any reason you, the consumer, are not satisfied with the results after using this product, you are entitled to get your money back. Limitations apply. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Mole Control

We've lived across from a golf course ffor 17 ye our mole problems were always bad until we started using Grubex to kill the moles food source. After seeing how good our lawn looks, all of our neighbors use Grubex too!

Love Grubex

I have been using it for years! Last year, I did not use it and it was not good. I have dead patches of grass! This year I put it on again! I will never miss another year!

Had grubs galore until using Grubex

We had an infestation of grubs in our lawn. After using Grubex, the problem was dramatically reduced. The lawn has rebounded and with maintenance, will fully recover.

Did not work

Last Fall I had terrible grubs so this year I applied GrubX in March. Came outside today (Sept) to find a big section of lawn destroyed. GrubX does NOT last all season! Do I need to reapply?

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Grubex Season Long Grub Killer and appreciate your feedback. This product has a 4 month residual. For best results it should be applied close to the time that grubs will be hatching. For most of the Northern states we recommend a mid-May through June application. Southern states may be slightly earlier. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.
