mole crickets, black cutworm, flea beetle and tomato leafminer etc.

How it works

How it works

The nematodes enter the pest through their body openning and release symbiotic bacteria into the pest's body cavity. These bacteria consume the host tissue and convert the host tissue into a food source, on which nematodes feed, develop and reproduce inside the host. Eventually, the pest is killed within a few hours to days.
