Control garden chafers effectively with nematodes
Garden chafers can become a problem on lawns in particular. The greatest damage is caused by their larvae – the grubs – which live just below the turf and feed on the grass roots.
With nema-green® the grubs of the garden chafer can be controlled biologically. In addition, adult garden chafers can be caught during their flight period with a special garden chafer trap and biological attractant.
Controlling garden chafers biologically – how it works
Ideal for lawns: Apply directly to affected areas.Garden chafer grubs grow up to about 2 cm long and live just below the turf. There they feed on the grass roots and weaken the lawn.
Applying nema-green®
- Water the lawn sufficiently before application.
- Mix the nematodes with water according to the instructions.
- Distribute evenly over the affected lawn area.
- Keep the soil moist afterwards.
- Avoid direct sunlight during application.
Which plants are attacked by garden chafers?
Garden chafer grubs mainly feed on the grass roots of lawns. In early summer the adult beetles attack the leaves and flowers of roses, fruit trees and other deciduous woody plants.
Are nematodes against garden chafers dangerous?
No. Nematodes enable biological control of the grubs and are harmless to people and pets.
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.
