How do I store leftover product?
Easy. Just keep any leftover product in the original bag and store it somewhere cool and dry, like a garage or shed, where kids and pets can't get to it.
When is the best time to apply GrubEx?
The sweet spot is spring through early summer. Applying then stops grubs right as they're developing, so they never get a chance to do damage.
Do I need to water my lawn after applying?
You bet. Watering is what activates the product. It carries the protection down into the soil where those grubs are hiding out.
Is this product safe for my kids and pets?
Absolutely. Just wait for the lawn to dry after you've watered it in, and then it's safe for everyone to get back out there and enjoy the yard.
