Bacteria:
Certain bacteria cause disease in insects. Strains of a type of bacteria named Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) are effective against caterpillars such as the sod web-worm. These bacteria produce a chemical that causes the insect to stop feeding. This biological control product may be bought and sprayed onto the lawn. Similarly, Milky Spore or Bacillus popilliae, causes Japanese beetle grubs to appear "milky" and then, eventually, to stop feeding and die. The effective-ness of milky spore varies depending on soil temperatures, as well as on its availability to the pest. Within 7-21 days grubs will eventually die. Available at:- Wareham Feed Co. Inc., 327 Main Street Rear, Wareham, MA 02571 - 508-295-0034
