Treatment against soil flies with nematodes helps protect plants in pots and planters from the small flies that we see fluttering on the soil.

This biological control is extremely effective in eliminating sciarid larvae which attack young plants to feed.
Nematodes are microscopic worms invisible to the naked eye.

This method of control to eradicate soil flies is environmentally friendly, without chemicals or harmful products.

ATTENTION :
It is a LIVING PRODUCT with a FAIRLY SHORT use date.

How are your soil fly nematodes delivered to you?

By unrefrigerated tracked letter directly to the mailbox.

Nematodes can survive for more than 8 days at room temperature without concern. Storing them in the fridge is just to be able to keep them longer by slowing down their development.

The nematodes must be kept cool after receipt in order to slow down their metabolism ("hibernation") so that they can be stored until the DLUO date.
At room temperature, nematodes do not die, but continue to develop. Without food (larvae of soil flies), they would end up dying naturally after about ten days.

Date of treatment based on anti-soil fly nematodes

Treatment with nematodes can be done all year round as a preventive or curative measure as soon as pests appear when the temperature reaches 10 to 12°C.

Dosage

A whole sachet of 5 million nematodes for 20 to 25 pots.

Mode of action

Nematodes are present naturally in the earth in small quantities, they are microscopic worms invisible to the naked eye, respectful of useful insects, crops and vertebrates (human beings and domestic animals).

How do they do it?

- Nematodes move through the soil looking for pest larvae to parasitize them. When they find them, they enter their body through natural channels and multiply inside, thus leading to their death within a few days.
