Ameisen mit Nematoden bekämpfen

Drive away ants effectively and sustainably with nematodes

Ants are among the useful insects in the garden – but if they become a nuisance on the patio, between paving stones or close to the house, their nests can cause damage and considerably spoil your time in the garden. With nemaplus® Ameisenfrei you can drive ants away naturally, without using chemical insecticides.

The nematodes of the species Steinernema feltiae it contains are applied directly into the ants' nest. The ants then leave the nest and look for a new location. The treatment is ideal for ants' nests in the garden, on patios, paths or between paving slabs.

Controlling ants with nematodes – how it works

Nematodes are microscopic roundworms that occur naturally in the soil. The species Steinernema feltiae contained in nemaplus® Ameisenfrei is mixed with water and poured directly into the ants' nest.

 After contact with the nematodes, the ants leave their nest and settle somewhere else. This allows ants' nests in the garden, on the patio or along paths to be removed effectively and in an environmentally friendly way.

Applying nemaplus® Ameisenfrei

  • Mix the nematodes with water according to the package instructions.
  • Pour the solution directly into the ants' nest. 
  • Keep the treated area evenly moist for about 14 days. 
  • Avoid direct sunlight during application wherever possible.
Sufficient soil moisture ensures that the nematodes remain active and can work to full effect.

What do I need to bear in mind when using nematodes?

Using nematodes is very easy. They are supplied in a clay mineral powder and mixed with water according to the detailed instructions on the inside of the package. The nematode solution is then simply poured into the ants' nest. The soil should be kept moist for the next 14 days so that the nematodes remain active in the soil and the ants do not return.

Are nematodes against ants dangerous?

No. The Steinernema feltiae used are specialised exclusively in certain soil pests and pose no danger to people, pets or plants.

 After application, the garden or patio can be used normally again straight away. At temperatures above approx. 32 °C the nematodes die off naturally.

Three reasons for nematodes from e-nema:

Safe and effective

Nematodes are the natural solution against fungus gnats. The tiny roundworms control the larvae completely biologically and effectively. No chemicals, no side effects.
