Control Ants using Nematodes - Ant nests in lawns and borders can be a real problem.
Simply water these nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) directly into the nest using a watering can. Ideal for treating red ant nests in lawns (it will work on any colour ant).
They come as a powder which will keep for up to 2 weeks in a fridge and should be used in one go once opened.
As the ant nematodes are a cure rather than a preventative measure, DO NOT apply the nematodes until ants are present and the soil is 10°c. You can apply the nematodes as long as the soil temp is 10c - normally between mid March and September.
These nematodes are:
Safe for children, pets and wildlife and it is safe to use the lawn directly after use.
Simply repeat as often as is needed to keep the area free of ants - it is impossible to overdose.
Totally safe to use near food crops.
DO NOT order until the soil temp is 10°c or above and ants are present.
Each small pack will treat up to 16 large ants nests, a large pack will treat up to 50 nests.
For persistent ant infestations - to keep ants at bay, simply re-apply the ant nematodes at 4 week intervals. We can arrange a planned programme which delivers you 3 packs of ant nematodes at 4 week intervals. Please call the office on 01902 440250 to arrange.
