Beneficial Nematodes (7 mil)

Beneficial nematodes are microscopic, parasitic roundworms that provide an effective, natural solution for controlling soil-dwelling and wood-boring insect pests. This product contains 7 mil (seven million) live beneficial nematodes, specifically entomopathogenic nematodes (Steinernema feltiae), which are infective juveniles that actively seek out and kill the host pests within 24 to 48 hours.

These parasitic nematodes invade pests such as Japanese beetles, cutworms, wireworms, weevils, white grubs, fungus gnat larvae, flea larvae, subterranean termites, and more—over 230 species in total. Once inside the pest, the nematodes release symbiotic bacteria that kill the host and provide food for the nematodes to reproduce, continuing their natural life cycle in the soil.

Benefits of Beneficial Nematodes

• Effective Pest Control: Nematodes kill juvenile and overwintering stages of pests underground, reducing infestations naturally.
• Environmentally Safe: Unlike chemical insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, beneficial nematodes target only pests, leaving humans, pets, and beneficial soil organisms unharmed.
• Sustainable: These nematodes reproduce in the soil, providing ongoing pest control without repeated applications.

Application Methods

• Soil Drench: Mix nematodes with water and apply with a watering can or irrigation system for even soil coverage.
• Foliar Spray: Use with a sticker agent to target leaf-dwelling pests like caterpillars and leaf miners.
• Injection: Deliver nematodes directly to pest habitats in soil or plant tissues for localized infestations.

Optimal Environmental Conditions

Beneficial nematodes perform best in soil temperatures between 55°F and 85°F. Applying them during favorable environmental conditions and keeping the soil moist improves success rates.

Contains 7 mil live beneficial nematodes per container, providing natural pest control without synthetic chemicals. This product is a valuable tool in integrated pest management, helping reduce reliance on chemical insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers.
