I invited 2,000,000 friends over for dinner.

Spring is creeping in.  Our neighborhood trees are blooming.  This is my signal to clean my garden bins.  I found a very robust population of grubs.   No!   Hundreds of them. 

My friend/coworker has tomatoes seeded already.  I briefly considered chemical warfare.  But toxic tomatoes don’t sound delicious at all.  I called a gardener supply store.

Beneficial Nemotodes!   They sold me dormant nemotodes.  The critter”s secretion carry bacteria that decimate grubs.  So cool.

I love the biological warfare option.  I never knew this existed.  I can’t wait to see if this works.  I released the plague into my garden soil.

Interesting
As hard as it is to kill anything in cal, that sounds like a good route...

Very interesting.  Please let me know how it is working out and which one you used.
Thank you.
