What are Vine Weevils? Vine weevils are a major concern for gardeners. These pests are nocturnal, covering long distances to feast on plant leaves and roots. Female vine weevils can lay vast numbers of eggs, giving rise to vine weevil larvae which feast on roots and eventually bring about destruction to plants. Symptoms of infestation are often mistaken as drought, with notches on the edge of leaves being a telltale sign of adult attack.
What are Vine Weevil Killer Nematodes and how can they help? Eliminate Vine weevil infestations the natural, safe way with Vine Weevil Killer Nematodes. The nematodes contain Steinernema species or Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, which enter the larvae and feed on its interior. TThe nematodes introduce a beneficial bacterium that exterminates the larvae and then reproduce, spreading new nematodes. With just one application of the Vine Weevil Killer, you can say goodbye to your Vine weevils, permanently.
When is the best time to apply the Nematodes? Apply Vine Weevil Killer Nematodes outdoors between Jan-May and again between Aug-Oct. Indoors, larvae may be present year-round due to heating - so treat when needed. Soil and compost should both be above 8℃ for best results.
In cooler weather, like spring and autumn, the Vine Weevil Killer includes a special beneficial nematode that's able to work at lower soil or compost temps. During the hotter summer months, we also provide a nematode that's more effective at higher temps.
What climate conditions do the Nematodes need? Select a damp or wet day for applying Vine Weevil Killer Nematodes. These UV-sensitive organisms won’t endure in bright sunshine, so apply them early in the morning or evening to get the best humidity levels.
How To:
1. Open and empty the contents of your 50 million sachet of nematodes into a bucket or container of 5 litres of water and mix thoroughly to make a nematode concentrate solution.
2. Next, take 0.5 litres of nematode concentrate solution and add to an 8 litre watering can and fill with water.
3. Water the diluted nematode solution into the infected area with each watering can covering an area of 10m2. 10 watering cans be made up from the 5 litres of nematode solution which can treat a total area of 100m2.
Ensure your soil area is moist for up to 2 weeks after application. This will help the nematodes enter the compost to search and find the Vine weevil larvae.
