Thanks that helps. The Quails eat all the seeds that drop. I'm surprised the WoodPecker's an other birds don't like these grubs. Thanks. I'll have some patience.

So, far, there is 1 plant that is struggling, leaves turning yellow but now seems to be coming around. I'm concerned about the Palo Verde tree near by. That tree has been there forever.
Good to know the plants are designed for "some" pest problems.…
What are they doing to your plants?
Usually they eat roots, but plants are designed to take on some pest problems without any help from us humans.
I moved a plant and when I dug into the ground there they were, about a shovel deep down. This was about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I dug scoop deep to move a irrigation line and there was another fat white grub worm. I alos looked 'em up on google.
How do you know you have grub worms?
I live on an acre. I added ruella, desert lavendar, summer blue emus to the yard this year AND drip irrigation. Prior to that it was natural desert. Now I see I have Grub Worms.
How do I get rid of manage the Grub Worms?
