You should store your nematodes in the fridge and use the whole packet in one go.

The use by date is printed on the packet.

Unlike the rest of the Nemasys range these nematodes do not kill the ants. However, the ants do not like the presence of nematodes in the soil and move their nests some distance away, out of the garden.


• One application will provide control for black and red ant nests already present in the soil.
• Use when ant activity is visible on top of the soil.
• Use between April and September when soil temperature is above 10°C (50°F).
• Cut the grass prior to application to ensure that all the nematodes reach the nests.
• Ground must be moist before application.
• It is important to keep the soil moist for at least 2 weeks.
• Avoid applications in bright sunlight, apply during evening or dull conditions.
• Use entire packet at one time and do not store made up solution.

Please Note: this item will be despatched at the optimum time for application which will now be from March 2010
