Nemaslug Slug Nematodes - Natural Slug Control
- Regular price
- from £15.99
Nemaslug Slug Nematodes are a completely, natural/organic pest control which is also environmentally friendly. Slug nematodes are microscopic, transparent worms, which feed and multiply inside the slug.
Quick and easy to apply and totally safe to use around children, pets and wildlife, making it the perfect solution for organic gardening. The less common name is Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita
Once the nematodes are applied the slugs stop feeding after a few days and die within a week. For total control apply every 6 weeks. It is best to start your slug control early and apply at least a week before planting to ensure your garden is safe from slugs.
The nematodes come with full instructions and can be applied using a watering can or AquaNemix applicator. You simply apply to moist soil when the soil temperature is above 5ºC (41ºF) and ensure the soil does not dry out for at least two weeks after applying nematodes. Nematodes are capable of surviving the odd frost; so don't worry if the temperature falls after you have applied the nematodes.
Please note these are a live product and have an expiry date usually about 2 weeks - this product is non returnable. Use the whole pack before the expiry date. Best applied: Feb/March - October.
NB: Nematodes are live material and cannot be returned. They will usually have an expiry date of around 2 weeks. The effectiveness can sometimes vary due to external factors.
Delivery is free when ordering only nematodes. Should you purchase any other items then our standard delivery charge will apply.
