every little bit helps IMO, if every person helps a little they can make a big impact. it surprises me how few people actually know what a nematoad is and how beneficial they can be.

Did they get nematode that goes only after Japanese Beetles? I thought there was some sort of problem with that or a dispersal issue where nematodes must be applied directly to ground with grubs.

how do you think stuff gets onto google? Have you ever looked up chicken questions and google just sends you to a thread on BYC?

Centra provided real world observations that are likely to help people like lmljs who asked for his advice... and hundreds of other people who are going to google search and end up on this thread to read his observations.

We dont care if you already know. you already know everything anyways.

no 2 dogs from down the street came over and ripped it off while they were trying to attack a mille fleur Bantam that was in it. They only messed up his feet a little and tore out a few feathers

Heterorhabditis bacteriophora nematodes. I'm pretty positive but i could be wrong but these ones spread though your yard and die off when there is no longer any grubs for them to feed on. they do need to be applied often, like 3 times a year.

We were supposed to get rain, but have been getting this since about dawn. You could make slushies from what is in the puddles.

Attempt at prescribed burn did not go so well yesterday. Ragweed stems in particular did not burn. Makes rabbits and rodents very easy to see.
