BENEFICIAL NEMATODE

Attacks many of the insect species attacked by Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, but is somewhat cold tolerant, making it particularly useful in northern areas. H. marelatus helps control grubs or immature stages of the following pests very well: May/June beetles; Black vine weevil; Colorado PotatoBeetle; Other white grubs; Carrot weevil; Flea Beetle; Bill bug; Strawberry root weevil; Bagworms; Banana weevil and Banana moth; Citrus root weevil group; Flea; Sugarcane stalk borer; Japanese beetle; Asparagus beetle; Cucumber beetle; Sweetpotato weevil; Masked chaffer; Various tree and vine borers.

H. marilatus is shipped on a sponge, in a paper pouch, or in injectors.

Nematodes on the sponge or pouch can be easil extracted into water and applied using conventional spray equipment, hose-end sprayers, watering cans, or distributed through pressurized irrigation systems (not soaker hoses). Nematodes packaged in the paper pouch have no carrier to clog sprayers or grow mold. The nematodes are simply rinsed from the pouch into the spray solution. The pouch formulation has a slightly shorter shelf life than the sponge formulation. Our nematodes are packed in small plastic injectors that can be used to inject nematodes into bore holes made by wood and stem boring insects or into flower pots and other indoor uses.
