Trees Honor Three Former Scout Leaders By ALICE WANAMAKER The Home News

Three trees were planted and dedicated to former leaders of Cub Pack 43 and Boy Scout Troop 43 in Bath last Tuesday evening. The trees were planted in memory of Charles Beynon Sr., James Kohler and Harold Brink, who together served the pack and troop for more than 50 years. Family, friends, neighbors and scouts who have learned from or heard about the three men gathered at Sacred Heart Parish park in Bath on June 12 to hear about the service the men gave to the boys they lead.

“With a combined total of more than 50 years of Scouting leadership to the 43’s, these men demonstrated dedication in their efforts to continue with the fine tradition of Boy Scouting. They put countless hours into planning activities, honing their Scouting knowledge and driving car loads of young Scouts to Summer camp, den meetings, weekend outings, First Aid meets, year-end trips and so on,” David Brink, Cub Scout Pack 43 and son of honoree Harold Brink read to the crowd. He broke their service down into numbers, as follows;

“By the #’s, in those combined 50 years, these three men; “Provided direct Leadership to at least 1,400 Scouts from Pack and Troop 43 in the Bath area. “Provided leadership, direction and support on a District and Council level to 10x’s that #. “Spent over 3000 hours in planning meetings, training classes and pow-wows. “Drove an estimated 68,327 miles to and from Scout camp’s. “Spent at least 1,000 nights in tents, on the ground, AND on half of those nights there was either rain or snow to contend with, and on the other half 100% humidity and no breeze.

“Ate over 3000 hot dogs cooked on a campfire, ate over 600 foil packs cooked on a campfire and shared nearly 250 Entenmanns Danish cakes over coffee brewed on a campfire. “Dragged upwards of 1,000lbs of dirt back to their homes, where their wives would unconditionally and quietly remove the dirt from their clothes and gear. “And most likely spent their last years thinking about doing it all over again.” Also speaking at the ceremony was Michele Morrow, who worked with Charlie Benyon when her son was a Webelo and Benyon was his den leader. Ms. Morrow is now

the den leader for the Webeloos and she teaches much of what she learned from Charlie, including “personal pride, and to cherish that beloved hot dog.” The trees were dedicated to the men with their families there to enjoy the legacy that they left behind. The trees will be tended on the church picnic grounds for years to come. The dedicated trees include: In memory of Scout Leader James D. Kohler, a Kousa Dogwood; In memory of Scout Leader Charles H. Beynon, a Flowering Pear tree, and in memory of Scout Leader Harold R. Brink, a Bloodgood Maple.

Former Bathite gets long overdue WWII medals (EDITOR’S NOTE: Forty-eight years ago Norman Werkheiser and his wife Evelyn moved from Bath to Tunkhannock in Wyoming County because of his job at the time. They had resided on Poplar Street in Bath. Now this World War II veteran has received the medals

he earned while in combat in Europe. Mrs. Werkheiser said her husband at the age of 86 has a shop and works all the time. The following story tells all about the medals presentation.)

INSIDE THIS WEEK:

When the European campaign ended in World War II, Cpl. Norm Werkheiser was granted a 30-day leave before he expected to be shipped off to Japan to fight. The dropping of the Atom Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki ended that possibility and Mr. Werkheiser said he eagerly looked forward to

going home. He was so eager that he forgot to collect his service medals. “The badges then weren’t as important as just getting home,” Mr. Werkheiser, now 86, and living in Tunkhannock, told U.S. Rep. Tom Marino (R-10, Lycoming Twsp.), who held a pinning ceremony in his office May 23 to present the veteran with 10 medals he should have received years ago. After the eighth medal, Mr. Werkheiser’s sport coat started to droop. Luckily, the last two medals were in transit. Mr. Werkheiser was just 16 when the United States Continued on page 13

Fighting Females Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is urging Congress to end the Defense Department’s ban on women in combat. Though the ban has long been in effect, in recent years the services have avoided following its intent by attaching women to combat units. When attached to a combat unit, women become involved in combat and a recent estimate was that 130 “attached” women have been killed and 800 wounded in combat in our Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Some argue that women are already dying in combat, why not change the policy not being enforced and allow more women to serve in combat. This appeals to some who see this as an equal rights issue. But most Americans probably don’t support a new policy ordering women into combat along with men, in combat units. Women are often at a physical disadvantage. This is not the traditional Christian view of a woman’s role in society. A majority of Americans, one would guess, oppose Panetta’s view that women should be “equalized”in wartime fighting. Women deserve more realistic consideration and respect than to be ordered into combat, often death, so that they are treated equally. Equal rights doesn’t mean all are equal for all physical and military activities.

The Northampton Area School Board approved a 4.9 mil hike in real estate taxes. School Supt. Dr. Cole said the hike was needed due to the state subsidies being cut by around $41,000. Moore Twp. was warned by the PA Dept. of Transportation to maintain Millheim, Egg and Bigley Roads to nowhere or lose the liquid fuel rebates for them. In Allen Twp., the Board of Supervisors started a law suit against a Fullerton man that sold a subdivision to Daryl Smith but did not get an approval from the township’s planning board. The East Allen Twp. Board of Supervisors stunned and angered residents by approving a new comprehensive plan the board had agreed to change at a public meeting only a week earlier. Bushkill Township’s Board of Supervisors was at odds over gypsy moth spraying by the PA Dept. of Environment Resources, due to concerns with the chemicals and unnotified residents. Lehigh Township supervisors passed a resolution regarding parking violations. Violations such as prohibited parking, parking on a sidewalk and double parking will carry a reduced fine of $5.

The weather was perfect for the Bath Anniversary Committee’s pig roast on Saturday, and a nice crowd was on hand to enjoy the roast and the music, and just getting together at the Ciff Cowling Field pavilion. Fi and Viola and the other gals were in their new summer 275th shirts. Hats off to the committee for all the nice things they’ve been having and will be having through August 18th, when there will be a parade and fireworks. Let’s all get together and have FUN! . . . . Weather was nice for the farmers market on Friday, too, when they featured herbs. There’s getting to be more and more things for folks to buy as the summer moves on. Yep, summer arrived this Wednes-

Summer vacation kicks off

The most excited person on the last day of school at Sacred Heart School in Bath was Mrs. Ann Marie Thomas, fifth grade teacher! The students have been asked to send postcards to the school during the summer from their vacations. Families may still register for the 2012-13 school year by contacting the office at 610-837-6391.

Overwhelmed with support "At this time, we do NOT need trophies", Tracy Berger- Carmen stated earlier this month. Nearly eight months after the project got off the ground, people are still dropping off trophies to The Home News office. "If anyone has trophies that they want to donate, they need to go on the waiting list, they can’t just drop them off at the office", BergerCarmen stated. When supply gets low or a hospital is looking for a specific size or type, that someone on the waiting list has, they will be contacted. The "Trophy Project" continues to grow and more children’s hospitals and camps are taking the trophies to give to their patients as they complete Che-

motherapy, Physical Therapy, or an in-patient activity. The real small trophies get shipped to Give Kids the World in Kissimmee, FL. Every Wednesday night, "Village Idol" talent show takes place in Kids Village and each participant gets a trophy. Since these kids travel all over the country to visit Kids Village, they can’t take a real big trophy home with them on a plane. Berger- Car-

men received a phone call from one of the administrators from Give Kids the World to say that one of their kids was more thrilled about getting a trophy than visiting Magic Kingdom! "These Kids may not be able to play in sports due to their condition or disability which makes them more appreciative when they get a trophy, regardless of size", Berger- Carmen added. Miami Children’s Hospital VACC Camp took bowling trophies to give to their campers last month. This has a personal tie with Berger- Carmen since her brother was a camper there in 1989. On a local level, last month trophies were donated to Dream Come True and Special Olympics for their annual fishing tournaments at Petersville Rod and Gun Club, Ranger Rod & Gun Club and Blue Mountain Fish & Game Association. They were all donated by Amanda G. who donated 200 dance, twirling and pageant trophies. The original tops were taken off and fish toppers were bought from Palmer Trophy & Awards- they donate the engraved nameplates for all the trophies. In order to have "Trophy Drive" continue, funds are desperately needed to help with shipping and trophy parts. As anyone who has a trophy may know, they are heavy, and shipping them is costly. Last month, there were 150 trophies shipped to Lexington Kentucky Children’s Hospital costing $130 alone. Local trophies are hand delivered and are usually bigger. Trophy Drive will be at the Bath Farmers’ Market on June 28th from 3-7 as part of "Recycling Day". Although trophies are NOT being collected at this time, there will be information available on the project. This is also the chance to get on the "waiting list" and a "Stuff the cup" campaign will be held to raise funds needed for shipping. If anyone would like to help, monetary donations (only) can be dropped off at The Home News office, First Star Bank Bath office or mailed to Trophy Drive, PO

Box 13, Bath, PA 18014. If you have trophies that you would like to donate contact Tracy at (610) 504-9387 or visit "Trophy Drive" on Facebook.

By Pete Fritchie

BASEBALL✷ ✷ ✷ One of the biggest surprises in Major League baseball this year are the records of the Tampa Bay Rays and Baltimore Orioles, who have been atop the eastern division in the American League. That may not last. The New York Yankees have begun coming on, as did the Boston Red Sox in recent weeks. But that a team like Tampa Bay,

with a payroll less than a third of the Yankees can be competitive, is a good indication money can’t always determine the outcome in sports. The Detroit Tigers this year also send that message. After spending hundreds of millions to sign Prince Fielder, considered one of the best hitters in the game, and joining him to probably the best hitter in the game, Miguel Cabrera, the Tigers in mid-June were many games behind the leaders, and with a losing record. For the first time in many years some fans are questioning the team’s leadership decisions. Injuries are the excuse offered by the team’s executive leadership, but fans, still coming, are beginning to wonder.

Nazareth breaks Bath Legion’s 7-0 win streak Until Sunday, the Bath Legion baseball team had run up a 7 and 0 winning streak in the Northampton County Legion Baseball League. But Dan Shepherd of the Nazareth Legion team threw an 8-0 shutout at Bath, giving up only six hits enroute to the victory, while striking out six Bath batters. The game was actually decided in the first inning when Nazareth, last year’s league champion, scored two runs. They added three more in the 4th inning on a single, wild pitch, triple by Mike Garzillo, and a double. Mike Martinsky had a two-run double. In the 5th, a walk, sacrifice bunt, another walk,

an error as catcher Benbenek tried a pick-off at 1st base, and a single to right field added two more runs. Shepherd added a double in the 6th inning. The final run scored for Nazareth in the 7th inning. Nazareth had 10 hits in all, getting them off Rob Bertolotti and his twin brother, Jim. Shepherd’s record is 6 and 1. Two of Bath’s players were in the Carpenter’s Cup Games at Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphia, on Sunday. Bath did gain a split on Sunday as they traveled to Palmer and won 8-1. Tom Esparo and Jim Bertolotti drove in three runs each. The locals had nine hits in this one, including a double by J. Bertolotti and a

triple by Tone. In Bath’s first four games, they had two one-hitters and two two-hitters among their victories.

Bux-Mont Wins Connie Mack All-Star Game

Registration fee waived as School looks for students The Northampton County Junior Conservation School is seeking applicants ages 14 through 17 years for a weeklong (July 15-22) residential summer camp experience based in Bushkill Township at the 4-H Center. Participants in the program will visit various sites throughout the Lehigh Valley region to experience, learn and discuss the environmental and conservation values and consequences. Highlights include the Appalachian Trail, canoeing the Lehigh River, Jacobsburg State Park, and various other conservation and industrial sites. The Northampton County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs, in partnership with DCNR Environmental

Education Center and the Northampton County 4-H Center, developed NCJCS in 1981. The program has continued for 31 years with the support of local government, sporting clubs, civic organizations and industries including the Charles Chrin Companies and the Whitetail Deer Classic committee. Since 1981, NCJCS has provided this rewarding and exciting experience to more than 800 youth from throughout the Delaware and Lehigh Valley regions. This year the school is faced with extremely low enrollment. NCJCS is seeking youth interested in conservation issues and the outdoors to participate in this year’s session. There is no cost

The 2012 PA State Connie Mack All-Star Game was held Saturday night June 16 at Lefty Fegeley Field at Limeport Stadium. The final score wasn't good for the Lehigh Valley BuxMont All-Stars 14 Lehigh Valley All-Stars 7. Lehigh Valley put themselves in the hole in the first three innings, when Bux-Mont struck for 13 runs. After settling down, thanks to great pitching from Lee Kuntz of Palmerton who shut down the Bux-Mont hitters, Lehigh Valley Started chipping away. Unfortunately for Lehigh Valley they had too much ground to make up. Ian Black (Lehigh Bethlehem) and Colton Freeman (Bangor) had two hits each. Vinny Cuvo (Coplay) had a 2 base hit. Nick Frey (Palmerton), Mike Fleming (Palmer Township), Devon LaBar (Pen Argyl) and Nick Terleski (Nazareth) all had RBIs. Justin Kratz (West Allentown), Seth Gable (East Stroudsburg) and Matt Fitch (Palmer Township) also had hits for the Lehigh Valley squad. Lehigh Valley Connie Mack President Mike Oriel said "Unfortunately, some misplays in the field and walks in the first three innings led to the lop-sided score. We have to look at that Lehigh Valley won the final six innings 7-1". The president gave the schedules coming up for July. Local Lehigh Valley All-Star Game is Saturday, July 7 at Limeport. "The kids love playing here," Oriel said. Local Lehigh Valley Playoffs start Monday, July 9 at selected fields around the Valley. PA State Tournament starts Thursday, July 19 and ends Saturday, July 28, all games at Limeport. Mike Oriel of LVCM said "that's the game I really hope we come out on top of".

NORTHAMPTON AREA NORTHAMPTON BORO – ALLEN TWSP. – LEHIGH TWSP. Lehigh Twsp. joins vote to Oppose state shift of money By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News Lehigh Township’s Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, June 12, voted with mixed feelings to oppose state elimination of farmland preservation funding and shift it instead to the general fund. A line item in Gov. Tom Corbett’s proposed budget would eliminate $20.5 million from state cigarette taxes for one purpose and using it for another. Townships in Lehigh and Northampton counties were asked to pass a resolution opposing that move. In Northampton County, and notably in Moore Township, that funding is used to buy farm development rights so that the land can never be used for housing or other development, but be totally

used for farming and/or open space. Farms are ranked according to the types of soil and other items. Lehigh Township does not have a farmland preservation program. Supervisors Chairman Darryl Snover said that he’s not totally in favor of using tax money to buy farms. One resident said government should stay out of it. It was pointed out that farm owners who want to farm their land instead of it being developed for housing voluntarily sell those development rights. Tax dollars are used to buy up these properties.

was noted that $3,400 of the $6,982 that the township collects quarterly would go for that purpose. The supervisors voted to support the Hanover Township vote rejecting the settlement proposed by Allentown Mayor Pawlowski. Nuisance Ordinance • Changes were made to the nuisance ordinance when Township Manager Alice Rehrig said parts of it are impractical to enforce. Two items noted are on spotlighting and giving more than 24 hours for a problem to be corrected, but not 20 days. There was also a question from the audience about smoke getting into a neighbor’s house, and outdoor furnaces. On the latter, Snover pointed out that plastic or tires cannot be burned. The proposed changes will be advertised. Other Matters • A resolution was passed so the police department can apply for a D.U.I. grant. • Last month, Mrs. Rehrig asked the board if there was an interest in refurbishing the sign out in front of the township building that is 30 years old. On Tuesday, the board voted to buy three sets of letters, at a cost of $475 to make it better. “Welcome to Lehigh Township” signs could be sponsored by the Lehigh Twsp. Lions Club, LTAA, Historical Society and other organizations. • The township will buy a lock box to give the fire departmentor access to the building if there is a fire emergency. • Burning ban signs have been taken down now that

Northampton County has lifted it since a considerable amount of rain has fallen recently. • The board had no problem with the Roosevelt Democratic Club having a flea market or Edgar Lorah having tractor pulls, since both have sufficient parking and restroom facilities. Snover said he told Zoning Officer Laura Harrier that the township doesn’t have anything appropriate in their ordinances to deal with special events. There is an 11 p.m. time limit, however. • Atty. James Piperato has suggested a hearing on ashes from creations. In one instance, a woman said that a box is used with a cross in the middle. If a hearing is warranted, it would be in July. • The proposed master concept plan will be discussed next month and the release of $2,300 in escrow for Bella Vista Estates was tabled. A resident questioned why the township is going out of area to fill the position of chief of police, now that Chief Jeffrey Schuler has retired. He said there are good officers here who are qualified. The township has hired a consultant from the Chiefs of Police Association to get a list of best qualifies persons available. Snover said the board was unanimous in doing it that way. The board held two executive sessions, one dealing with pending litigation by Grube over the Rails to Trails.

THE HOME NEWS June 21-27 2012 That plan has since been abandoned.

bMitman’s COUNTRY MEATS b

By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News Two complaints that concerned traffic along Lower Nazareth Township roads will be referred to the Colonial Regional Police Department, the residents were told on Wednesday, June 13, at a meeting of the Board of Supervisors. In the first one, a resident along Gremar Rd. said motorists are going 50 MPH when there is a 25 MPH speed limit. He called it unsafe for people living in that Trio Farms development. Township Manager Timm Tenges said it is a police matter, and he would bring it up to CRPD. The resident went so far as saying he would pay for speed bumps. If warranted, the township may go for a stop sign. Another complaint by a female resident was about tractor-trailers on Hanoverville Rd., noting that she had counted 34 in one day. Signs are along the road indicating that trucks are not allowed there, and Tenges said truckers have had it noted on bills of lading. He said he will also refer this issue to CRPD Chief Roy Seiple. “The problem is everywhere,”Tenges said, “especially with the number of warehouses in the area.” Other Matters • A conditional use hearing was scheduled for First Industrial Pennsylvania, L.P. – First Park 33, concerning 58.9 acres of land, but the company in June 8 correspondence asked that the hearing be extended from June 13 to June 27. Persons present who were going to testify were so notified at the meeting and the hearing will be continued to June 27. • Waivers were granted to John and Tracy Walker in a preliminary/final subdivision, for there is no development planned at this time. The couple plans to have the lot for their children in the future. Atty. Jim Zulick represented the Walkers and said they are planning a barn on the property, and for that they will need a site plan to get a building permit. There is access from Christian Springs Rd. Delineation of wetlands would be shown in the subdivision. • Four bids received for rehabilitation of Park Ave. and Murray Drive were rejected. Although the township could re-bid, Tenges said they may go for rental equipment with an operator at less expense, using township management. The bids were up to $248,000 and Tenges said the work could be done for about $155,000, and the township would have a much higher level of control. Materials would be under state contract. Tenges asked the supervisors

• Solicitor Gary Asteak noting more about the earned incomes tax that the township might not get, said the Neighborhood Improvement Zone issue with Allentown is ongoing. . . .He also said there is nothing new on the Selvaggio – Kropach issue of the building that the township is buying. • The township will be allowed to collect 2011 earned income and prior delinquent taxes, although the county has a firm that now collects the new taxes.

Rev. Larry Mark

Pastor, Grace United Methodist Church

“Putting an End to All the Rules” I mentored a first-year teacher who did not have much luck with classroom management, one of the finer arts of teaching. We had discussed the three simple classroom rules most teachers posted on the wall. He jotted them down, created a beautiful poster and neatly tacked it on the wall for all his students to see. We met weekly to discuss how things were going and eventually arranged a day for me to observe him teaching one of his classes so I could provide constructive feedback. I could not believe what I saw.The neat poster with three classroom rules had posters on either side with more rules. There were posters on each side of them...with more rules...there was a second row of posters...with more rules. Each time something happened he added more rules.You know the old saying,“Rules were made to be broken,” and his class proved it! There are lots of rules in the Old Testament, too. If we limit it just to commandments (“mzvot”), there are 613 rules to live by. Whew, that is too many for me to remember! Needless to say, the rule book had grown from the top ten and it still did not corral sin. God reveals his plan to end this losing battle in Jesus Christ. “Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.” (Romans 10:4) He did what we could not do so that we may have what we could never deserve. By his willingness to die for us, we are forgiven and covered by his righteousness. We can live with freedom -- free from sin and free from the desire to sin, because of him. Through Jesus’ death on the cross, and by his teaching, he has reduced the list of laws down to two. Jesus said, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it,You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.” (Matthew 22:26) Jesus told us to live loving God and loving our neighbors. Simple enough. It may not always be easy, but the key is our connection to Jesus. He put an end to trying to live by the letter of the law. Instead, we opened his arms to us and even today invites us to live through him. He moved life from rule-based living to relationshipbased living. Jesus said it this way, I have come that they may have life and it abundantly. (John 10:10) For me, Jesus has given me the ride of my life. Each day is thrilling as I find ways to love my neighbor. Each day is peaceful because I love God and God loves me. Each day brings new life and greater joy. I hope you are enjoying the same ride with Jesus. The Reverend Larry R. Mark is the Senior Pastor of Grace United Methodist Church in Pen Argyl. He also taught Biology and Human Anatomy and Physiology for several years.

WWII Medals Continued from page 1 entered the war in 1941. Two years later, he was drafted and shipped to Europe to serve in the infantry. He fought with the 87th Division, Third Army, across central Europe. His unit battled its way eastward through Germany until it met

up with Russian troops advancing from the opposite direction near the Czechoslovakian border. Mr. Werkheiser spent much of that time on the front lines. He considers himself fortunate that he never had a battle injury. Rep. Marino thanked Mr. Werkheiser for his bravery and asked if he was ever scared. He said, “You bet.” Werkheiser said he tried not to think about it. He said, “we were fighting for world peace and help for our country and that was enough.” Rep. Marino addressed a group of about 20 family members and friends in thanking veterans like Mr. Werkheiser for their bravery in World War II. “Adolf Hitler was dead set and determined to rule the world, and if it weren’t for soldiers like this one, we might be speaking a different language or might not even have the freedom to have this kind of ceremony,” said Rep. Marino. He added, “I’m proud to be in a country where the world still looks to America for freedom.” Rep. Marino said Mr. Werkheiser’s Bronze Star is for meritorious service beyond the call of duty. Mr. Werkheiser said it just so happened that his commanding officer had given him the wrong directions one day, and because he followed them, he avoided direct contact with enemy gunfire and actually placed him where he could be of help. “We were just lucky,” Mr. Werkheiser said. About his worst memory, he said, “It’s something I don’t really talk about much. You miss the ones who didn’t get to come home with you. Losing your buddies is the toughest. I once had a fellow soldier alongside me get shot in the forehead.You never forget that kind of thing.” Among the missing medals which Rep. Marino’s office helped to procure: • Bronze Star with double attachment • Good Conduct Medal • Meritorious Unit Commendation • American Campaign Medal

THE HOME NEWS

24 NAHS students leave for Germany.

Northampton Students Leave for Germany Greg Casee holds the group t-shirt, translation:"You only live once!" The Northampton Area High School Student-members of The German American Partnership Program (GAPP) departed Tuesday, June 12, 2012 at Noon from Northampton Area High School for their 3-week trip to Gladenbach, Germany. Three Germany teachers accompanied the 24 students on the trip. They are: Frau • European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal • World War II Victory Medal • Army of Occupation Medal and Germany Clasp • Combat Infantryman Badge • Honorable Service lapel button • Sharpshooter Badge and Rifle Bar Two other medals came later in the mail. (If anyone would like to write to Mr. Werkheiser, his address is 746 Mile Rd., Tunkhannock, PA 18657.)

Wenck, Frau Krempasky and Frau Schnyderite. The students will each stay with a host family; the same students they hosted back in March/April when the German exchange students visited the United States for 3 weeks. While in Germany, the students will attend German High School and present to the German Students a teacher-approved Presentation. The presentations range in topics and are 'what is unique to America' centered. One of the students, Christine Zopf will be journaling her adventures in Germany for a feature piece in the Town & Country Gazette and The Home News, both publications owned by Innovative Design and Publications, Palmer, PA. Christine also happens to have been selected as an Intern for the publications upon her return from Germany. We look forward to welcoming Christine to our office. Frau Schnyderite also created a blog for Students and Parents to use to share interesting comments and experiences.

GRUB PREVENTATIVE Memorial Day to 4th of July: is the time of year you can apply a grub preventative. The product we sell is called Merit. Merit is an insecticide, which will be absorbed by the grass plant down to the root of the grass plant. The Merit is placed in the root of the grass plant. When a grub eats any part of the Merit lased root, the grub dies. Merit is a preventative. It takes a month for the Merit to be absorbed by the grass plant. Once the grass plant absorbs it, the Merit will last in the root until November. Because of this fact, Merit cannot be used as a rescue treatment. It takes too long to work.
