There are many reasons to plant grapes (Vitis spp):
1). They’re delicious (yes even wine varieties)
2). They’re great vines
3). You can also pickle the leaves
4). Birds also love the fruits
5). They support native moth species
6). They support insectivorous birds
7). Tortoises love the leaves.

Most of what people know about grubs comes from an industry which sells pesticides. They’re conspicuous and often get blamed for problems which have less obvious culprits. Grubs are the larval form of beetles.They mostly east organic material in the soil or on dead wood. Don’t poison them.
