Leatherjackets

Leatherjackets are the lawn-wrecking larvae of the daddy longlegs or cranefly, a brown/grey caterpillar-like larvae capable of ruining your lovely green lawn in no time as they greedily feed on the grass roots, causing brown patches of dead grass to develop.

And if that’s not bad enough, birds and animals attracted by the juicy grubs below ground will rip up what remains of your lawn to get at the leatherjackets!

To the rescue come the nematodes contained in our completely organic Leatherjacket Killer; when applied directly to the soil, the nematodes head straight for the juicy grubs and enter the body through any pore or opening. The bacteria they spread put a swift end to grass-destroying activities and also saves your wallet from a beating – try comparing the cost of a packet of our Leatherjacket control nematodes to that of relaying an entire lawn!
