David Grays Lawn Beetle & Turf Pest Insecticide Granules 750g

David Grays Lawn Beetle & Turf Pest Granules 750g

David Grays Lawn Beetle & Turf Pest is a ready-to-use insecticide granule for controlling lawn beetles and a range of other turf and garden pests. Powered by bifenthrin (2g/kg), it comes in a convenient shaker pack, so you can apply it evenly across the lawn straight from the container with no mixing or special equipment. This is the 750g size.

Lawn beetles and their larvae, the curl grubs, are a common cause of dead and dying patches in Australian lawns, feeding on grass roots and leaves until the turf thins out and browns off. This granular insecticide targets those pests down at soil and thatch level where they do their damage, and also controls ants, worms, weevils, fleas and ticks, making it a useful all-rounder for treating the lawn and the areas around the home at the same time.

Being a granule rather than a spray, it's simple to apply and, once watered in, moves down into the soil to reach pests where they live. It suits lawns as well as external surrounds of the house, and is an easy first step for anyone noticing beetle activity, grub damage or a general pest problem in their turf.

How to Apply

Shake the granules evenly over the affected lawn and surrounding areas using the shaker pack, following the application rate on the label for your area. Once applied, water the granules in well, as this moves the active down into the soil and thatch where beetles, grubs and other pests are active. Apply to the whole lawn for a general problem, or concentrate on damaged and high-activity areas. Always read and follow the label directions, rates and safety directions before use.

When to Treat

Lawn beetle problems typically show up over the warmer months, so treating from spring into summer, when adult beetles are active and grubs are feeding, gives the best results. Watch for signs like brown or dead patches that lift easily, birds digging in the lawn, or beetles around outdoor lights at night, all of which point to lawn beetle or curl grub activity. Treating early, before damage spreads, is easier than trying to recover a badly affected lawn. Watering the granules in soon after applying is the key step for good control.
