Gerritt Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Mike... is Merit not the end all be all for Grubs? is it harmful to pets?

Whopper Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 (edited) Don't think they'll hurt the dog but grass is a whole different ball game http://www.nysaes.cornell.edu/ent/biocontr.../nematodes.html Uh and here I thought nematodes was a form of grubs. Gerritt merit will keep them in check if you apply every year, Never seemed to effect my dog. Edited September 25, 2007 by Whopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said "Louis" had a grub problem, didn't say anything about his lawn... Louis, 2 tsps. of nematodes sprinkled on your cornflakes each morning for 7 days should take care of your problem!

HTHM Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Nematodes are parasites that feed on grubs and other larvea. They should not be harmful to dogs or kids, in my opinion.
