The Chafer Grub is a major problem for grounds care professionals and can cause severe damage on golf courses and sports grounds.
There are no ball games played here but the very wet spring has caused an explosion in Chafer grub larvae at the world famous heritage site Stone Henge.
The Landscaper Magazine reports on how a common problem was dealt with at this sensitive site.
English Heritage didn't want to use chemicals so they turned to the services of millions of Nematodes for a cultural control. Once released, the nematodes eat the larvae of the Chafer grub in the soil.
