   Now is about the time the worm turns,into a flying creature, to lay
its eggs and begin the cycle all over. 
   Cygon spray works well on the borer and eggs. Possibly by using it as
a soil drench, you could take care of your problem.
   Are you sure you are not having mole cricket problems. 
they eat into the rhz. leaving a hole behind. You don't give your zone,
but in this area the crickets have been very active. Moreso than other
years.
   If you should decide to use cygon PLEASE! read and follow directions
carefully.
