The Extension people for Madison (WI) area recommend that if you can get the entire
neighborhood, including the local parks & golf courses, to apply milky-spore, some
control would be noticed.

I've tried milky spore - first batch quite a few years ago was bad - but you

"Maybe next year". Tried it again 2 years ago and still hoping. Don't know
how far those things can fly - they may come in from elsewhere.. Never
tried nematodes - seem pretty expensive. Hector Black zone 6 middle TN

Have you tried Milky spore or parasitic nematodes for Japanese beetle

Midwest, but succeeds farther east...
