Ok I am getting a box of Beneficial Predatory Nematodes.....they look like the answer to my problem with grubs and japanese beetles! Not to mention the poor little skunk that is now putting holes in my lawn because he loves the grubs.
My question is has anyone used these? It says they start working in 24 to 48 hours.

Glad to hear they work Kim! Actually by reading the following peice of text on the website you linked to I'm not surprised why:
| Quote: | | Predatory Nematodes attack by invading the insect body and then reproducing on what remains, until only a "shell" is left behind |
Erggggh! What a death
