Hello Everyone,

I thank you all in advance for helping me.

Yesterday, while I was tiling the soil in one of the garden beds, I saw some of this larval stage of some insects (see picture attached).

1. Could you please help me identify this (I think it's a lawn grub)?

2. Are they harmful to vegetable plants? I found about 8-10 in a 4X4 feet raised bed.

3. If yes, what should I sue to get rid of them which will not harm the vegetable I will grow in the garden bed?

Thank you once again,

RJ

A few grubs aren't a problem. Unless you have a major infestation, just till over in the early morning and retreat inside the house: birds will do the work for you.
