Best Answer

Yes it will . There are at least three new products on the market to battle white grub infestations in home lawns. Each of these products contains a relatively new chemical active ingredient that behaves much differently than Dursban or diazinon in the past, and the biggest benefit from all of these new products is that they can be applied BEFORE the June Beetles appearAnother nice piece of this puzzle is that the active ingredients are much friendlier to mammals, birds, earthworms and non-target insects than the old mainstays

There's a good chance it would but it probably isn't a good idea. It's a dangerous substance and would greatly lower the pH of the soil, possibly causing more damage than the grubs.

How do you kill grubs?

Controlling habitat, encouraging natural enemies and predators, and pursuing treatment schedules are ways to kill grubs. An aerated, shaded lawn whose irrigation timetable is set at 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) weekly discourages grubs, whose preference is for buzz-cut, compacted, moist surfaces. Birds, milky spore-carrying bacteria, parasitic nematodes and wasps, and pet amphibians and mammals number among a grub's food chain enemies and predators whereas chlorantraniliprole-, halofenozide-, imidacloprid-, and trichlorfon-active sprays work chemically and diatomaceous earth, insecticidal soap, and neem oil work organically.


What kills grubs?

If you currently have grubs- Any product that contains carbaryl (Sevin) or trichlorfon (Dylox) will work well when applied in the spring (from March to mid-May) or in the fall (September 1 to November 1).and will kill the grubs currently in the ground. It is necessary to irrigate after applying any curative product to get the chemical to the grubs. Run a lawn sprinkler for at least 60 minutes over treated areas (fill a bucket to a half-inch). It will take 10 to 14 days for the grubs to begin to die. One trichlorfon product called Bayer Advanced 24 Hour Grub Control seems to indicate by the name that it will kill grubs in 24 hours. However, I doubt that any of the insecticides will kill grubs in the soil in much less than five days unless there is a very heavy rain and very warm temperatures the day of application.
