About Nemaslug Nematodes
Nemaslug slug nematodes is a natural organic pest control which is environmentally friendly. Slug nematodes are microscopic, transparent worms, which feed and multiply inside the slug. Easy to apply and completely safe to use around children, pets and wildlife, making it the perfect solution for organic gardening. The less common name is Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita.
How do Slug Nematodes Work?
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. Slug nematodes are found naturally in the soil, by applying these you are just topping up.
The nematodes enter the slug and secrete bacteria which kills the slug.
Start your slug control early and apply at least a week before planting to ensure your garden is safe from slugs.
Are Slug Nematodes Easy to Apply
The nematodes come complete with instructions and can be applied using a watering can or nematode applicator. You just 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.
How Long do Nematodes Last in the Packet?
Please note these are a live product and should be refrigerated if not being used straight away, each pack has 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.
One packet treats 40sq.m.
Please note 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.
Now in smaller packaging due to higher concentrate.

“Fourth year we have been using these. Get the Miracle Gro Nematode Applicator & Garden Feeder. This made things a lot easier this year.”

“I hate having to resort to harmful chemicals to get rid of garden pests, and try to avoid it as much as possible. I also have pets, so don't want to use anything that might harm them either. I do think this stuff works, as I've seen a noticable reduction in slug issues, and a few ex-slugs in my garden area after the fact. My primula, which I thought were a lost cause due to slugs, are actually making a comeback! The only negative thing I have to say, isn't about the nemaslug, but about trying to find a coarse enough wateringcan rose. I've bought three from different suppliers which each tell me that they are "coarse", but they all struggle with the solution for some reason. Maybe it's just me.”

“I buy these most years and after being sceptical I am now full of praise for the product. I have a large garden crammed full of shrubs, trees, a pond, and a small (very small) orchard; the 40sqm coverage handles it fine. Easy to apply and the effect is noticeable after a couple of days. I even sprinkle some over the stone garden wall to stop the slimy blighters climbing over and making negotiation of the back yard a tricky business (I hasten to add that the yard wall backs onto meadow and woodland, so no neighbours offended). Highly recommended”

“Very effective, although snails are less susceptible to them. I have been using them for over 5 years with very good results.”
