Description

These vine weevil predator nematodes let you control one of the most destructive garden pests nature’s way.

Simply mixing into water, the tiny microscopic nematodes can be easily applied with a watering can or knapsack sprayer to raised beds, flower beds and borders.

Once established in the garden, they will seek out, infect and destroy black vine weevil larvae feeding on your plants’ roots.

For the best results ensure compost/soil is moist prior to application and for some days afterwards. This will help the nematodes enter compost to search and find the larvae.

Avoid applying in bright conditions as nematodes are sensitive to UV light. Apply the nematodes as soon as possible after receipt or store in a fridge unopened. Gel packs can be stored for 10 weeks.

Treats an area up to 50m². Harmless to wildlife, pets and humans. Always read the packet before use.

Please note: in cooler conditions (spring and late autumn), you will be supplied with Steinernema nematodes, a species that thrives in lower soil temperatures. In the summer months, you will receive Heterorhabditis which is more active in higher temperatures.

Key features:

  • Easy to use - dilute and apply
  • Safe for pets and wildlife
  • Treats an area up to 50m²
