We've used beer for slugs, but not grubs. We keep grubs in check with Grub X
You are correct Lainey, I get these two mixed up.

Well Rick will be glad to know he doesn't have to water his lawn with beer.

We now use Sluggo for slugs. Less messy than dealing with dead slugs in a dish of beer. Sluggo

Keeping a lawn takes a huge amount of water. Since a lot of California is actually desert, lawns are the first to go in a drought. (you know it doesn't rain here from late May till October at all). Watering too much will get you a visit from the lawn police.
On a personal note, we have 62 acres, but not one inch of lawn. Around the house it's drought resistant plants and ground covers, watered on a drip system. The other 61 1/2 acres is oak and pine trees, scrub brush and the best poison oak you'll ever see.
