Re: Milky Spore question

Hello Bobbi,
    I would not waste my money... in fact I did some years ago. Does not
keep JP beetles away for all the neighbors would have to use it as well.
Those things do fly... also moles eat worms as well as grubs, so even if you
kill off the grubs, the moles will still be there. You know the old bit
about lowering your expectations so you will not be bothered....... think it
applies here. Moles are a fact of life.
