Be aware that this does NOT work on grubs, regardless of what the picture on the box shows!! If you noticed random dead patches of grass in an otherwise nice lawn in late summer in prior years, it may be grubs.

Use merit (imidacloprid) for prevention starting around...right now!
June is actually an ideal time to handle grubs on the cheap (they havent gotten fat eating up your grass yet and its not too hot yet). The only sure fire way to see if its grubs is to dig up some turf at the site of damage and see if you got a high density of the little buggers.

Observation-wise, if you have a lawn which, for every other reason, seems to be doing well, and then suddenly after some hot spells in the summer (the same hot spells which bring a ton of crab grass), random circles turn yellow for no reason, then its definitely grubs (sometimes fungus, but thats more of a brown double ring than a single yellow circle of death).

Apply merit or bioadvanced grub control (theyre both from Bayer) right before you expect rain, and you should be good for the rest of the season. I havent tried grub-ex because its not available for sale in my area.

They arent cheap by any means ($20 for a 10lb bag that handles 5000 sq ft)
This, and also you don't have to worry about the risk of Amazon throwing the insecticide in with your food items

$6 at Lowe's, so $5.7 for Lowe's card holder. Even cheaper if you have discounted Lowe's gift card from other deals at 10-15% off.

A good deal that is a bit hidden in 'Other' ... maybe add to Home and Home Improvement.

Same price ($6) at Walmart [walmart.com] and as mentioned, Lowes.

Yes. I use often, and on multiple properties as a perimeter application. 18-24" is sufficient to keep south Texas insects out for 3-6 months. Keep in mind this is in the burbs. YMMV

It's cheap so you get what you pay for. Last maybe a month max, maybe that's exaggerating it. Last year I used Befine one spread lasted from spring to fall. This year I decided to cheap out and get this and already regrating it. It hasn't even been a month yet since I spread it and bugs are already coming back.
