Q:I have cutworms larvae in my planting trough. Should I sprinkle Sluggo on top of the soil or dig it into the ground. Currently we do not have a crop in trough?9/23/22A:Sprinkle it on top. But it will deteriorate with rain or watering so you need to reapply if either occurs. Otherwise, it works well.
