Product as advertised, funny packaging
By Susan on 10/20/2014
We received the product, but it was in recycled rose food bags, which really threw me! I called "DoMyOwnPestControl" and their service rep knew all about the recycled packages and reassured me that I had the correct product. The coverage of the product was exactly as advertised. We won't know until next summer if the beetle population is reduced and the moles head out for yards with more grubs.

Good product, good service
By Dan on 10/06/2016
Milky spore is my great hope in the battle against japanese beetles. Its non-toxic and long lasting characteristics (10-20 years) are especially nice, I think. The big box is handy for big yards, just be ready to spend some quality time putting the product out on your lawn, one spoonful at a time. The company accidentally sent me the wrong size box, but immediately re-sent the right stuff without any delay or hassle. While I was bummed to get an incorrect order, I was pleased with their response and plan to order from them again in the future.

I received your package , it had Just enough powder to make one row of product. Last time i was able to cover The entire back yard with one package; I used the applicator as previously. However, the one row seems to be protecting the plants.

Hoping for the best!

Bought and applied the product, but since it takes up to 2 years to be totally effective, it's difficult to review. Easy to apply, but time consuming. Of course, I knew that before I bought it, so no surprise there. Hoping it will work well! I do plan to buy more so that I can finish the rest my back yard.

Milky Spore Powder
By Jim on 10/11/2019
My daughter used the Milky Spore Powder 3 years ago and it has proven very effective. I helped her with her application. The instructions are specific in laying out a grid to apply the powder. By advised, for a large yard (110x150), this takes a fair amount of time. For someone 70 years of age, it is a lot of bending over, literally, many hundreds of times. It took many hours, even with the help of my daughter. The alternative of using traps or stinky sprays over several years with limited results, makes the Milky Spore Power method worth the effort.

Excellent customer service! Shipped quickly! Results?
By Daryl on 10/19/2018
Reviewed several products before deciding on the milky spore powder. Don't expect to realize any control for over two years when applying the powder. Will probably continue to have to over seed and seed many ares of your yard before any results can be realized. Unsure of any benefit when company states milky spore powder can be used in addition to other chemical products. Guessing game.
