Vine weevil nematodes will stop vine weevil from destroying the roots of your plants. These microscopic transparent worms (Heterorhabditis megidis) feed and multiply inside the larva. The nematodes seek out and kill vine weevil larvae.
Apply when the larvae are active in late Spring and early Autumn. High infestations may need two applications.
Apply to pots and open ground March to May and August to October. This is when the vine weevil larvae are present. If applying under cover the pests life cycle is broken and Nemasys Vine Weevil Killer can be applied at any time, as long as the soil is above 5ºC (40ºF). Apply directly to the soil around the roots which is where the larvae will be feeding.
Autumn use is the most effective as the larvae are younger and have not caused significant damage to plants at that time. Banding pots with Insect Barrier Glue will stop the adults from climbing into the pots.
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).
Delivery is completely free when just ordering nematodes. Should you purchase any other items then our standard delivery charge will apply.
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.

Did the product suit your needs? Yes
I didn’t know why my plants kept dying for ages until I dug a dead plant up and found larvae in the root. I’d never heard of vine weevil but found out about these Nematodes on the internet, so easy to use and got rid of the problem almost immediately.

Effective if you keep the compost moist. Needs refrigeration if not being used immediately. Shame this isn't highlighted on the parcel by the supplier as I was away when mine was delivered

As with nematodes slug, too early to write a review because it takes a number of weeks for the product to have an effect.

They are good for treating vine weevils and easy to use, although they do clog up the watering can rose.

I have not given a five star rating because I have not had the time to see if the nematodes have a lasting affect. So far, I don't think there has been any further damage since the nematodes were applied. Application was certainly simple.
