Nematodes are a naturally occurring microorganism which target and kill specific garden pests without posing a risk to other wildlife, crops, or pets. This also means they are perfectly safe to use on fruit and vegetable beds to stop slugs from indulging in your home-grown produce.

The improved formula of Nemaslug 2.0 contains a new species of nematode called Phasmarhabditis californica, it is higher concentrated and more potent than the original Nemaslug, with larger quantities of nematodes for quick, persistent, and effective action.

Slugs account for the most pest-related complaints among gardeners, and their ability to consume and destroy yields of crops and flower beds is devastating. Nemaslug 2.0 provides a safeguard for gardens for up to six weeks, with the small but mighty nematodes working hard and fast to keep slug populations down. To ensure ongoing protection, applications should be done every six weeks during peak slug season, which is typically from early spring to autumn.

The application is simple, as per the instructions on the box, mix your Nemaslug 2.0 with water and apply to the soil on your flower and vegetable beds using a watering can fitted with a coarse rose. Then sit back and relax and watch your beds bloom all summer long without worrying about the slugs making a meal of your hard work in the garden.

An entire season’s worth of pest control can be purchased now via online stockists, to be delivered straight to your door.
