Grub Guard Ultimate Application
Lawn Solutions Grub Guard Ultimate Turf Insecticide is a ready-to-use spreadable insecticide granule. Measure the lawn area before application to determine size then weight amount of granules to apply over the area. Evenly spread granules over the lawn either by spreader or hand application.
Spreader application: The use of a garden spreader or professional spreader that can be calibrated for even output is recommended for optimal product performance. Use a drop type, rotary type or handheld spreader.
DO NOT apply when the soil is saturated with water as adequate distribution of the product into the soil will not be achieved.
Rate:
75 – 150 g per 10 m2 or 750 g – 1.5 kg per 100 m2
Apply the higher rate for:
- up to 6 months residual protection
- cases of high pest pressure
- late in season when mature grubs are present for African Black Beetle (typically mid-December onwards)
Lightly water in immediately after application.
Precautions
Whenever you are using chemicals such as Grub Guard Ultimate, it is always important that you follow the safety directions provided on the product and wear the recommended protective clothing. So make sure you take some time to read the instructions in full before opening the product to apply.
Grub Guard Ultimate can be used on all grass types including Kikuyu, Couch, Buffalo, Zoysia and cool season varieties.
Grub Guard Ultimate prevents and treats a broad range of lawn pests including:
- Lawn Armyworm
- Lawn Curl Grub (African Black Beetle Larvae)
- Argentine Stem Weevil
- Billbug Larvae
- Sod Webworm
Active ingredients – 2 g/kg CHLORANTRANILIPROLE
Remember this product is primarily designed to prevent lawn grubs and pests from appearing in your lawn (a pre-emergent insecticide). Grub Guard Ultimate is not an effective treatment for lawn grubs that are already present in your lawn. For a ‘knockdown’ treatment of grubs already present in your lawn (post-emergent insecticide), we recommend Battle Insecticide.
