Soil Pest Control

Indoor & outdoor soil pest control that is people, pet, and planet safe! 

ABOUT BENEFICIAL NEMATODES
Simply mix with 1–5 gallons of water and apply to soil using a watering can, hose-end sprayer, or pump sprayer. For best results, introduce nematodes in the morning, evening, or on a cloudy day to protect them from UV light. Our fast-dissolving powder ensures a smooth application and has been trusted by natural growers for decades. Nematodes thrive in soil temperatures above 50°F—after applying, keep the soil moist for two weeks to help them move through the moisture and target pests effectively.

Beneficial nematodes are microscopic worms found in soil that target young stages of pest insects, like larvae, grubs, nymphs, and pupae. Their life cycle starts when female nematodes lay eggs, which hatch into non-feeding juveniles. These juveniles molt several times until they become hungry infective juveniles. They actively search for hosts, enter them, and release bacteria that kill the pests. Within a few days, the infected insect dies, and the juveniles feed on it. This cycle repeats until conditions change.

CHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY
If you’ve recently applied pesticides or treatments on your plants, check their compatibility with beneficial nematodes. Some chemicals can reduce nematodes effectiveness or prevent them from establishing. However, fertilizers do not harm beneficial nematodes. As a general rule, if a treatment doesn't harm the pest, it's unlikely to harm the predator.

Review our chemical compatibility guide to ensure past or current treatments won’t interfere with their success.
