Premium Vine Weevil Killer with Nematodes for Natural Control in Edible Crops - Treats 100m²
Premium Vine Weevil Killer with Nematodes
This solution features indigenous parasitic nematodes from the species Steinernema kraussei. This anti-slip safety flooring is perfect for a variety of settings, including entryways, pathways, workshops, and exterior locations — it is weather-resistant, ensuring usability throughout the year. The nematodes actively locate vine weevil larvae within the soil, entering through natural openings before introducing bacteria that infect and eliminate the larvae, providing a safe and environmentally friendly method of control. This product is a go-to choice for facility managers and safety experts.
These nematodes are particularly effective on edible plants and open fields where conventional chemical treatments may be restricted. Should you be looking to purchase commercial matting in the UK, this solution offers outstanding longevity at a competitive price point.
Highlighted Features:
- Targets vine weevil larvae effectively.
- Safe for use on edible crops.
- Natural pest control method using nematodes.
- Delivers protection lasting up to six weeks.
Important Notes:
- Keep this product refrigerated until ready to use.
- As larvae develop into adults, controlling them with nematodes becomes more challenging.
- Steinernema kraussei is effective even at soil temperatures as low as 5ºC.
- This product is not available for sale when larvae are no longer susceptible to nematode control.
Usage Instructions
- When applying to pots, take care to limit excess water escaping through drainage holes to prevent loss of nematodes.
- After mixing with water, apply the solution immediately to the soil, ensuring to rinse any nematodes off foliage with additional water.
- Vine weevils primarily feed at the root level, making targeted application in this area advantageous.
Localized Spot Treatment Using a Watering Can
- Fill a clean container with fresh water.
- Take the nematodes from the refrigerator and open the packages.
- Pour all contents (excluding the container) into the bucket and stir slowly.
- Rinse the container in the bucket to ensure all nematodes are included in the mix.
- Add a portion of the concentrated solution to a watering can and fill with additional water.
- Water the soil or lawn thoroughly, using either a hose or watering can to ensure proper distribution.
- One pack is sufficient to treat an area of 100m².
Widespread Application for Larger Areas
- Clean the feeder thoroughly with water.
- Add the entire contents of the pack to the feeder bowl, cover with water, and mix well. Attach the hose to the feeder.
- Hold the feeder upright and distribute evenly to the entire area for eight minutes in a side-to-side motion to ensure nematodes are well dispersed.
- Reapply to the same area for an additional eight minutes (or 16 minutes for lawn treatments) to ensure full coverage and sufficient watering of the remaining nematodes.
