Grub Ex worked like a charm. It was applied using a Rotary Spreader in late summer. There were no signs of larvae mounds the following Spring.

Grub Ex was applied to my large yard (approximately 15,000 sq.ft. It was my first time using Grub Ex. We had just purchased the house in July 2013 aand prior to settlement a large number of mounds were noticeable in the front yard. This was a result of Japanese Beetles larvae hatching and burrowing through the grass. Rose bushes, ornamental cherry trees and red maple trees seem to attract the beetles. Being a novice, I purchased and applied Grub Ex in the late summer 2013. This Spring 2014, I didn't have any burrows in the lawn but did have Japanese Beetles in the ornamental cherry trees, red maple tree, and on the rose bushes. Beetle bags didn't put a dent in the problem. I purchased Neem Oil and mixed it with water. I applied it to the problem plants and the Beetles have not returned. If Scott's could make a Neem Oil product I would definitely buy it. A very satisfied Scott's customer.

This works!

I had a bad problem with moles in my yard. My yard looked as though Bugs Bunny had been traveling underground throughout my yard. I had no idea what was going on. I went to my local home improvement store and they told me about this product. I used this product and my yard looks great now. This is a sweepstakes entry.

Did not effect the grubs

I put the product down as directed. I paid considerably more because I have trusted Scotts products in the past for all my lawn care. I was, to say the least, highly disappointed. After putting it down I ran the irrigation system for 10 mins per zone and then we received a light shower overnight. After a week I still had grubs. I then purchased a bag a of Spectricide (less than half the cost) and the next day my yard was full of dead above the ground grubs.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had this 10x10 area in the back yard where the grass was always dead looking. So I checked the Scotts website to see what the problem might be. The website told me to check for possible grub damage. So I got my square shovel and lifted a one foot square piece of sod up, and oh my god the grubs. They were eating the roots of the grass causing the lawn to look like dead grass. So I used the GrubEx the next summer, and I haven't had any grub problems, and the back yard never looked better. Thank you Scotts for a great product.

Grubex

At a considerable cost for the past three years I have used over 200.00 each year for Grubex. Each year I have grubs. I have a half-acre and the treatment is more than adequate and it simply doesn't work. I simply raked the areas were the dead grass spots are and each time I find grubs have eaten the roots away.

works - haven't seen grubs in the soil

I definitely had grubs - found quite a few digging around the yard here and there. I applied this product a couple of years ago, and subsequent digging has not turned up any grubs. My initial goal was to help eliminate moles! I had a pretty major mole problem, and eliminating the excellent food source grubs provide goes a long way towards that yard battle.

Kill those grubs

Grub Ex does work. I have used it for a number of years and it will kill those grubs.
