You can put them in dirt and mix in lettuce and regular food scraps. Good Luck

they are there eating the smaller bugs in the turf root area. They do not eat the roots of turf, but rather break the roots when they forage for the smaller bugs. If you can eliminate the smaller bugs you will eliminate the grubs. Or you can wait till they eat their full and move on. ( very doubtful) Remember, when you have a problem with bugs, that is usually the secondary problem, not the original. A good example is mites leaving excretment on lower leaves, causing ants to climb the limbs for this "sooty mold."

It depends on what type of grub you are talking about. Where ever you find the grub, like turfgrass for example, that will more than likely tell you what they are eating. Grubs that damage turfgrass eat the roots of the turfgrass. Some grubs live in decaying wood and feed on that. It all depends.
Not all 'grubs' are beetles though they look very similar. There are wasps that cause galls on oak. The larvae look like beetle grubs, but are really wasp larvae.

They eat grass roots and sometimes landscape plant roots.
