There are also specific nematodes that are helpful for targeting certain pests. But what if you're not sure what type of pest you have? Or maybe you're dealing with several pests. In cases like this, it's best to rely on Garden Army Nematodes. They control a broad range of common garden pests and are even a great solution for getting rid of fire ants!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat are Nematodes?\u003c\/b\u003e Nematodes are microscopic, beneficial predatory worms that hunt down and kill pest insects but pose no threat to people, pets or plants. They won't harm beneficial insects, either. They're an environmentally friendly, non-chemical solution to get rid of grubs and many other soil-dwelling pests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplication Rates.\u003c\/b\u003e 5 million nematodes will cover 200 sq. ft; 10 million nematodes will cover 400 sq. ft. Reduce coverage area by half for heavy infestations. Only infested areas need to be spot treated, and it's a good idea to extend treatment a couple of feet beyond the infested area. There is no need to treat non-infested areas as grubs tend to return to the same area year after year. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePests Controlled. \u003c\/b\u003eThere are a variety of beneficial nematodes, and while more than one type can control several of the same pest insects, some nematode varieties are better suited for controlling certain pests.

Nematodes are most effective at controlling grubs in the spring and fall. Once they're applied, look for the adult pest population to begin dwindling in 1-2 weeks. Garden Army Nematodes kill pests at the larval and pupal stages, so they'll prevent future pest populations once the adults die off. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNematodes are packaged with diatomaceous earth (which is mostly silica), water, and potassium sorbate.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gurneys","offers":[{"title":"10 Mil | Year-Round","offer_id":53493500674415,"sku":"fzg1789732044952","price":31.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Mil | Year-Round","offer_id":53493500707183,"sku":"vqc1789732044953","price":19.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/3840\/8815\/files\/garden-army-multi-purpose-nematodes_1.webp?v=1789732071","url":"https:\/\/crispshirtcollarfit.shop\/products\/garden-army-multi-purpose-nematodes","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
