Description

Vine weevil predator nematodes let you naturally control one of the most destructive garden pests without recourse to chemicals. The adults feed on leaves and the grubs on roots, and both ornamental and edible plants can be devastated unless they are kept in check.

Simply mixing into water, these tiny microscopic nematodes can be easily applied with a watering can or nematode applicator to pots, raised beds, flower beds and borders.

Once established they will naturally predate on the vine weevil larvae feeding on your plants' roots, reducing their number and limiting the size of the next generation.

When to use:

Refrigerate promptly upon receipt and use the whole pack within the expiry date (the sooner the better).

Best applied when the larvae are active and the soil is above 12ºC. Apply to pots and open ground between March and May, and again between August and October. In the greenhouse, you can apply it at any time as long as the soil or compost is above 12ºC.

How to apply:

1. Empty the contents into 1.2 litres (if using the small pack) or 10 litres (for the large pack) of lukewarm water and mix well to create a stock solution. Once mixed into water, this must be used within four hours.

2. If using the small pack, pour 600ml of stock solution into a new bucket and add 5.4 litres of water, stirring continuously. For the larger pack, mix one litre of stock solution with nine litres of water.

3. Transfer into a watering can with a coarse rose, or a nematode sprayer, and apply directly to moist soil.

4. Repeat steps two and three until you have used all the stock solution, then water the treated area with a hose or watering can.

Please note: nematodes are live material and cannot be returned. They will usually have an expiry date of around two weeks. The effectiveness can sometimes vary due to external factors.

Key features:

  • Natural chemical-free pest control
  • Easy to use - dilute and apply
  • Safe for pets and wildlife
