    Grub treatments?
    I live in NY,

    what is the best time to lay down that fast acting grub killer?. in ny they do not sell the season long killer due to chemical in it. I put down Milky spore 2 weeks ago (4x4 grid type), but that will take awhile to be set in lawn and I want to be proactive before grubs eat my lawn... if I applied it now June 25th is it too early and wasting time/money or it it safe to assume that the grubs are already eating my roots?
    thanks

    I've asked this question, but lost the connection and can't seem to find our chat. Looking for help in properly setting a Melnor Electronic Aqua Timer Model 3060. I need to set it to water flower pots both in the morning and the evening, but can only get it to water once a day. Please advise soonest. It's getting hot! Thank you.

    You say you've answered the question regarding properly setting a battery operated outdoor watering timer to accommodate twice-daily watering, but I cannot see any answer (Melnor Electronic Aqua Timer Model 3060). Please advise.

    I have used it and it works great.

    Biological control around my home does not survive over wintering and appling a granular with a fertilizer spreader was easy. You state may require you have a licence. Do not use around fish, fish ponds, or bee hives on your property.
