• How To Apply Nemaslug Slug Killer:
  • Apply Nemaslug to moist soil.
  • The soil temperature should be 5ºC (40ºF) or over (this is also when plants start to grow). Nematodes are capable of surviving the odd frost; so don't worry if the temperature falls after you have applied Nemaslug. Metaldehyde based slug pellets are reported not to be effective below 7ºC.
  • Use entire packet at one time and do not store part used packs or made up solution.
  • Nematodes are easy to apply simply as a drench. All you need is a watering can with a coarse rose or a recommended hose end feeder. A standard pack takes approximately 20 minutes to apply.
  • Once mixed with water, apply immediately, making sure they are applied to the soil. Wash any nematodes off the leaves using more water.
  • Make your soil does not dry out after applying nematodes.

Watering can method.

  • Open, take a portion of the pack and put in a watering can.
  • Add water and stir.
  • Water on soil/lawn and then water in with hose/watering can.

Storing your nematodes:

  • Keep the sealed pack in the fridge so they remain inactive, ensuring their good health until you need them.
  • Nematodes will keep up to the expiry date, clearly marked on each sealed pack, when kept refrigerated.
  • They are perishable so you should not open the pack before you intend to use it.
    It is always best to use living products as soon as possible after receipt.
