Milky Spore is the safest material ever developed to control the grubs of Japanese beetles. Produced to USDA standards. This 10 oz. Milky Spore targets and kills Japanese beetle grubs, a familiar destructive pest, before they can grow into adult beetles.

The adult beetle feeds on flowers, ornamental plants, trees, shrubs, and the foliage of some field crops. In areas treated by Milky Spore, Japanese beetle grub eat the spores during their normal feeding patterns. Then the spores reproduce inside the grub, eventually killing grub within days. As the grub decomposes, it releases millions of new spores and these multiply and kill other grubs.
