steelman 252 #3 Posted May 18 I had a problem last fall with a skunk digging up my lawn. I treated for grubs then and am getting ready to do so again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 29,223 #4 Posted May 18 I use grub killer on my lawn, cut their estimated effective time in half. Had an issue with moles too but some C02 gasses from my trusty C-141 took care of them for 4yrs. See a couple trails this spring so it looks like they might need some more gas treatment this year though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HyperPete 787 #6 Posted May 22 Trying to support pollinators, I have stopped using poisons. I use milky spore for the grubs, and these when i find mole tunnels. (They are quite effective!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
