They won't harm beneficial insects, either. They're an environmentally friendly, non-chemical solution to get rid of flea larvae and many other soil-dwelling pests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"fontbody_heading_imp\"\u003eApplication Rates\u003c\/h2\u003e5 million beneficial nematodes will cover 200 sq. ft; 10 million beneficial nematodes will cover 400 sq. ft. Infested areas should be spot treated, and it's a good idea to extend treatment a couple of feet beyond the infested area. Reduce coverage area by half for heavy infestations. Concentrate application in areas that pets frequent, shaded areas, under porches and around structures where fleas can hide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"fontbody_heading_imp\"\u003ePests and Fleas Controlled\u003c\/h2\u003eThere are a variety of beneficial nematodes for flea control and while more than one type can control several of the same pest insects, some nematode varieties are better suited for controlling certain pests.
