- Grubs look like thick white worms with front legs. Grubs are not worms at all. Grub are larvae of Beetles such as Japanese Beetle. Beetles lay eggs in summer, and those eggs hatch in late summer, turn into larvae and dig underground and start eating the roots of plants. Grubs are harmful for the garden. There are two natural ways to get rid of grubs.

I just found your channel and I have listened to your information about gardening on a few videos so I subscribed. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Thank you for your videos. We have a bearded dragon that gets to roam around our yard, so pesticides are not an option. Also since getting our pet, I am more aware of the dangers that pesticides to wildlife in general. I am glad to find some natural solutions to help my garden.
Here are two products to get rid of Grubs
Milky Spores amzn.to/2EJQUVN
Corn Meal amzn.to/2CD8UhM
very simple and yet very helpful!!!!! thanks!
Now I don't feel so bad. All my plants with a few exceptions died. I pulled them and they had almost no roots! It was those grubs. Didn't figure that out until this summer as I was tilling the soil to prepare for cold weather veg. There are at least 100+ in a small raised bed. Those are the ones I have found, digging by hand. My chickens LOVED them. I will try your suggestions. Thank you so much! So milky spores AND corn meal. And a Japanese beetle trap on the other side of the yard. Thanks again for the lovely video! New sub!
Hi Jag, I just love your channel! Do I have to dig and bury the cornmeal under the mulch? Thank you!
Gonna try the corn meal now. Thanks!
Just found your channel and LOVE it! thanks for this one too--never knew cornmeal would work! Gonna try next season--have grubs and then moles/voles that tunnel so hoping this works!!--Thanks-Kristy

Wow...I just luv ur channel...so simple & straight forward...ThanQ 💚💚💚🌿🌿🌿🌻🌻🌻🌻
Thankx for the corn meal tip
I subscribed as you taught me a better way to get rid of grubs
Omg thank you! These things have been driving me insane they are everywhere. Just poured the last of my cornmeal and ordered milky spore. So glad I found this video!
Did the cornmeal work for you?
@@heatherbulger9714 Honestly I am not sure, because I put milky spore all over my yard 2 days later in addition to the cornmeal. Something worked, because I do not have nearly as many now. I think the milky spore takes a "generation" or so of the grubs to really take effect though, so maybe the cornmeal did something?
@@Aries162 good to know! I'm trying the cornmeal to my raised veggie garden until my shipment of beneficial nematodes come in. Hope my plants survive until then! So many grubs...
Did cornmeal work for you guys ? Don’t like milky spore takes too long to work
@@STRpros Idk if it really helped the grub/maggot problem but it brought in a ton of flies for me. So not recommended lol. I ordered beneficial nematodes and I think that helped the most.
Great info, thanks!
That was perfect thank you. I've been trying to find a way to kill the grubs in my garden without worrying about what it might do to my chickens and other animals. In think i might share this tip on my channel too.
Excellent information about grubs
Very good tips thank you
Interesting about the cornmeal,thanks
Thank you so much! HOW CAN WE GET RID OF Mole cricketS?????
Thanks just what I needed to know,will try.
Thank u so much for your information sir....
What about DE in the garden. I have a 4’x20’ raised bed and there are dozens and dozens of the.
Milky spore or DE. IR BOTH??? Thanks love your videos, so informative. ❤
You are awesome and I find all your videos very helpful. (You do speak a bit fast though - constructive idea from an actress) How much cornmeal should I use in the garden? It is just a flower garden and their under the grass as well? How far do they travel and how fast? In other words, how far away from the garden should I put the milky spores or cornmeal? Also, you didn't mention how to apply the milky spores. Can you please add that info and demonstrate? Thanks so much
Very easy .. Thank you!!!
Thanks for the info. I just found a grub in my garden today (in one of my raised beds) I’m going to try the corn meal. Great video- all the other videos regarding grubs, were not very informative like you. Thank you.
Hi did cornmeal works for you ?
Did it work?
It kind of works for me. Another thing that some people like to do is attract birds. Birds will poke around the soil and eat them. You could also try beneficial nematodes.
What is milky’s spurs we need a picture of that... Majority of the people know what corn mill is thanks for that picture
Can I apply grub control at the same time as over-seeding my lawn ? Will it stop germination ?
I have never had a grub issue yet. Knock on wood. LOL because before I plant my fall and spring gardens I set my chickens out. They free range but not into the gardens only when its clean up. 👍 I hope I never have a grub issue but will use the corn meal in the future if I do. Thanks 😀
Chickens are amazing!!! They will get rid of all bugs and also turn your compost pile :)
Please make video on how to get rid of slugs ,gnats and thanks for this video
Liquid soap. I keep a bottle of dawn just for this purpose in the garden shed. Squeeze 3 or 4 drops on the slugs.. that is it ..gone.
Best to use until the milky spore takes hold is to generously work sand into soil at roots
. Sand sticks on the goo of their bodies and they get stuck and fade away. Also saucers of beer. They love it, get into the beer and explode! Works but is expensive, you go through a lot of beer to kill a few grubs..
This a Great Video !
Now, on to moles and Voles please ?
I don't have $$$ .
I planted a pretty flower bed both ,shady and sun loving . Both looked like a cemetary the following spring . I touched each one and they all fell over both bushes and perennials without any root systems at all !
Any help ,I would appreciate . I've educated myself well but but the cost is immense . Thank you .I am in Zone 5 It is November 15 , 2021 . I'm praying for a few good days and your instructions Sir .?
Can you put sugar or salt in the soil so that kills when they're having babies slugs and snails
I have wood chip mulch in my garden and will frequently find grubs munching away at the wood chips. I guess I'll have to keep an eye on my plants to see if I need to control them. Milky spores are expensive, but I might try that corn meal solution (supposedly it works for slugs too)
Did cornmeal work for you ?
Did you try the corn meal?
Can you use milky spore in vegetable and fruit gardens?
I have grubs killing my tree. Can i use the corn meal on that also?
I have a lot of grubs in my fruit tree container. Can I use milky spore to get rid the grubs in my fruit tree container?
My bearded dragon is my all natural grub control, lol. He patrols my raised beds while I garden, anytime I find a grub he makes short work of it
Thats crazy, made me smile
How does he help with subterranean grubs?
@@sarahturps1384 he follows me through each raised bed while I make furrows, plant seeds, or pull weeds and if I uncover any grubs or beetles he is happy to handle them. He also eats my plants so it's a catch 22 lol
I should add that I double dig my garden some years which brings up grub larvae from deeper in the soil to the top where he can spot them easier
Wire worms are making holes in my radishes, will corn meal help in getting rid of them ?
I have Az scarab beetles grub in my garden beds. Every year. 1000's. I even see the beetle laying eggs in my soil. I read milky spire does not work on scarab beetle grub. I tried beneficial nematodes but very costly and by the time it starts working my plants are dead.. Help!
Will the corn meal effect the tomatoes or parsley or squash?
is corn flour another name for corn meal? I'm in south east asia and i never saw a box labelled corn meal in my entire life
Hi , what if there is a lot of grubs , like deep in the soil , how will corn meal be applied best so it kills them ? It’s my first 3 months gardening and it’s really sad that I thought those grubs were beneficial for the garden so I didn’t do anything about it . I’m so close to giving up because of aphids and grubs 😭😭😢😢😢😩😩💔💔💔 help me !! Please ! 🌿😭😭
I have grits. Can I use grits it is cornmeal?
Would this work against Japanese beetle larvae?
My chickens enjoy them as a snack. 😊
Does this work on Saint Augustine grass?
I'm going to buy some cornmeal asap
corn meal worked.
I dont have few in my garden, I have them everywhere and they are destroying my garden! Corn meal, who knew? You did , thanks
Thank you,got many grubs in my plant, that’s why they look like lack of nutrients, and they are yellowish,was trying to figure out what’s wrong with them ,now I finally got the answers from you! 💕
Did cornmeal work ?
I got plenty of grubs amd one of them is turning into a rihno bettle
What is corn meal? Is that corn flour?
I don't believe that milky spore works on the very prevalent june bug(green fig grub) here in california. I'm going to try neem cake around plants or neem oil mixed as a drench with soap this year as another u tube poster applies it. Thankyou for your organic methods.
I have snails that are the size of quarters... Would cornmeal help with those also?
Corn meal will not help with snails. Use crushed egg shells to deter snails and slugs. To get rid of snails and slugs, dig a hole in the ground, put a plastic glass in the hole and pour beer in it. This setup is called a beer trap and effective in catching snails and slugs.
Salt is also another great way to be rid of the snails.
@@DaisyCreekFarms egg shells wont help. The slime of slug can help it over a knife edge.
Question: Will the milky spores hurt the beneficial black beetle larvae? Are black beetles even found in garden beds? If not, then nothing to worry about. If using corn meal do I mix that into the soil so the grubs can get it or just leave on top? I look forward to reading your reply.
Milky spores will effect all larvae, it depends on what kind of beetles are in your area. There is research conducted on this by Dr. Michael Klein, Adjunct Professor of Entomology at Ohio State University. Just include the corn meal around your plant on top of the soil and you can also dig a small hole away from your plants so you do not disturb your plant roots and put a handful of corn meal and then cover the soil.
Had a whole pot of them I got to treat the chickens. They did kill my marigold but I didn’t mind
I had a huge problem with cucumber beetles and aphids this summer, any naturals ways to get rid of them? I tried neem oil and it did help but they kept coming back, had to spray twice a week and I still didn't get any cucumbers....
The aphids i just spray with a hose or brush them off by hand. I also found worm tea to work really well at keeping them and powdery mildew at bay. Maybe it will work for you. Good luck.
good luck with that, put a wren house, they will pick off bugs in the garden, thats why Im growing certain thing in my house with hydroponics, just when the plant is in full production, the beetles come eat it all up
Hi, I noticed Ants are attacking the grubs? What do you think about using this as a natural control?
ants protect certain plants, they have a mutual agreement
I m from canada and here we do not have milky spores or organic grub killer. any advise?
You didn’t watch the episode ? The guy did suggest using corn meal (corn flour).
I put a spade.in halfway and turnes the soil...there was 17...17 IN ONE HALF SPADE....DID.ANOTHER AN ANOTHER 9...I THINK I HAVE A GRUB PROBLEM...BIG TIME..
OK I NEED GALLONS OF MILKY SPORE...
I have grubs eating into my potatoes. They make good chook food.
Can I have some of the grubs?
Do I need to put my strawberries inside for the winter?
Sew Fantastic
Only if they are in pots. If they’re in the ground you are good. If they’re in pots and you have a garage attached to your house you can bring them into there and then only water about once a month just a little bit so the roots don’t dry out.
It depends on where you live. If the night time temperature drops below 50F then yes you will have to bring them inside or use greenhouse otherwise strawberries will die. Even if the strawberries die back, next spring they will pop back from the roots unless the ground freezes in your location.
We left our planter out during the artic freeze this past February and have more strawberries than last year
One already has baby strawberries
All my fruit bearing plants died because of grubs so heartbreaking
don't earthwarm eat plant roots?
It seems that earthworms are so much like grubs that they would be hurt by milky spores too. Has anyone studied this closely? Thanks a bundle!! :)
there are japanese worms that are really livley and are a little bit different than night crawlers, they act like snakes and are very infestation. they eat roots and I swear they can crawl. night crawlers have a flat like body and the ring is not as close to the head like the japanese worm
Earthworms are totally different from them
Or you could get some chickens. Free protein they'll fight over to eat
There are many similar projects in Woodglut's plans.
Corn meal is different from corn flour
Corn starch
Can I use cornstarch?
Just wrekt like a hundred of these fuckers on my strawberry areas.
Noticed my strawberries weren’t growing new foliage nor fruits for a week and noticed them when I went to check them
Milky spores are joke, I used them and no results. it will take care of one type of grub. I tried beneficial Nematodes this year so will keep updated
Easy, eat them.
Do you eat them?
Dylox, imidacloprid. Done.
I had an infestation of grubs, about, 25 per square foot, and my garden was already growing real good. I went to the feed store and got diatomatious earth and sprinkled it like lime 3 times over the affected area. I didn't care about the worms!!! It got rid of them all and I never had 1 Japanese beetle. When I dug up soil, the were little hard flat boomerangs. I had plenty of worms. I also last year had an infestation of fungus gnats in my indoor garden that ruined my whole season, this year, I'm not stressing because I put D.E. over the top, and it kills them off, plus any earth worms I have gets niellated as well. HA HA HA!!!
Hi debbie ballou, did the D.E kill the worms? I read that DE will not work on the likes of curl worms, but it seems it did in your case?
Thanks
@@marinetrax yes it did, I treated the ground with a sprinkel 2 to 3 times, and when I dug up some ground after a week or 2, the worms were either mushy and or dried like a potato chip.
I'll add worm castings to my garden know that dt kills them. Thanks!
Rolling tounge for R make him sound exactly like White man 😜
Are you pakistani?? Just asking
I. Hate. Japanese. Beetles.
