I’ve got grubs in my vegetable garden. I looked into spraying nematodes to kill them, but I’m worried about it harming other bugs like butterflies, bees, and fireflies. Anyone have any experience with this? I don’t want to do more harm than good.

If you can but it might be too soon if they are in next stage a safe one is Bacillus Thuringiensis. It kills caterpillars or any larvae with midguts.
Where does one acquire this magical bacterium?
Most garden centers carry it. I used Monterey B.t. spray for a really bad inchworm infestation. It worked really well, but it does stink.
