I looked in my jerry's book for recipes for killing grubs, and the wrong page is listed onthe index. It explains how to chase off skunks on that page. LOL So I'm looking for a natural recipe that will kill out grubs,

Then I'll want to kill the moles. I got a recipe i'm going to use for the moles, but wanted to kill the grubs first. I got tons of them.

any ideas?

where do I get that milky spore? I hear that works, but I'd like to make up some kind of recipe of things I have here in the house.

I have castor oil I'm going to use in my solution for the moles after I kill the grubs.

I've also heard you can use juicy fruit gum and garlic in the holes to confuse them so they'll run off. and using diatomaceous earth and bon ami clensing powder with your fall lawn food, but I don't feed the grass. so what about just sprinkling it on the ground?

putting bon ami into the ground holes when you plant plants it says it would be helpful too. This is what my jerry's back yard gardener book says to do.

Nothing for killing out grubs though but the milky spore.

thanks in advance for any help.
