These nematodes really helped last year to save my box hedge , the caterpillars have done more damage this year so I’m hoping these do their job . Ordering is easy and they arrive on time . Also the instructions are good and application is easy .

I would recommend anyone to try these. Too early to say how effective they are and I have not used the second application yet They are easy to apply

Ordering was simple and delivery was on time. There was a reasonable for used by, and keeping them in the fridge until able to use them was fine. The instructions were simple enough to follow but our sprayer had too finer head so had to use a watering can with a rose, so not so easy to judge usage on my three bushes, so although it seems effective it is probably dearer than other commercial sprays. My bushes have sentimental value to me so worth the extra effort.

Box nematodes have been really effective applied on plants mid April in the rain when forest was for to stay wet for 3 days. The plants have bounced back with vigour, reordered for next application but will have to keep plants watered in this hot May weather spell. Every day I seek out & squeeze all that I can find too but the nematodes really cleaned up emerging catapillars. Using nematodes we clean up the garden April & October (wet & warm soil) effectively of slugs, vine veevil, chafers in the lawn, ants & allotment veg every year from neighbours invaders. Plants are much healthier with this investment.

Too early to say how well it works! But I use other nematodes (Vine weevil) and they appear to work. Mixing properly and applying/maintaining optimum conditions (not hot or dry) is worth the effort in my experience and it's a good natural way to avoid using pesticides. Box tree is now a regular problem so I use box traps for the moths later in the year - which also work - using the spray-on nematodes now in attempt to get on top of the caterpillars. Wil know more in a week or two on the effectiveness.
