Q.How Long After You See June Bugs To You Treat For Grum Worms?
I live in Texas and saw June bugs today 2/17/21. When should I treat my vegetable garden for grum worms? I am going to use Millky Spore. How long do I wait after I see them?

Milky spore is best used in the fall for grub worms to be effective. For adult June beetles, they can be controlled in late May through June with insecticides. You also can pick them from your plants and drop them into a container of water with a little dish soap.
