Nemaslug 2.0 Slug Killer 40 sqm for use UNDERGLASS

Full Description

Nemaslug® is the No.1 bird/wildlife friendly solution for slugs. Nemaslug® will not harm children, pets, birds and wildlife. Song birds i.e. thrushes, hedgehogs, frogs, toads and some insects i.e. ground beetles love to feed on slugs and their eggs. These predators have a significant impact on the slug population, but many of the chemicals used in slug pellets can be toxic to these predators, so if you use them, you run the risk of harming them. There are also increasing concerns about the effects of these chemicals on pets. Unlike Nemaslug®, many slug pellets do NOT work well during wet weather – exactly when you need protection against slugs. Nemaslug® also kills slugs BOTH above and below ground.

Nemaslug® contains millions of microscopic beneficial nematodes (Phasmarhabditis Californica) that occur naturally in your soil. They are invisible to the naked eye and come as a powder, which is mixed with water and applied to the soil where they search out and invade the slugs. As the nematodes invade the slug, it will stop feeding, so your plants are safe and will burrow underground to die. As it decomposes in the soil, the nematodes are released back into the soil to search out more slugs and the whole process starts again. Nemaslug® works at temperatures above 5c/40f, so apply UNDERGLASS all year round OR apply OUTDOORS during the growing season i.e. between March and November. Each application of Nemaslug® will control slugs for six weeks, so for a slug free garden, apply Nemaslug® every 6 weeks. Nemaslug is a perishable product (it will keep for 2 weeks in the fridge), so order when you are ready to apply or select your dispatch date below. Each application of Nemaslug controls slugs for 6 weeks, so for a slug free garden, re-apply each 6 weeks – see our Planned Programmes of packs sent a 6 weekly intervals.

How is it sent? – Nemaslug® is a perishable, living product, so it is sent out fresh by Royal Mail 1st TRACKED post, but they are fine on the doormat while you are at work. Being a perishable, living product, it must be used before the expiry date (which is marked on the inside of the pack and will be at least 2 weeks) and it must be stored in the fridge until it is needed. Once opened, the contents do not keep, so it must be used in one day – do NOT store the made up solution or powder. 

How to apply? – Nemaslug® is easy to use. An improved easymix formulae means Nemaslug 2.0 is easier to mix and dissolve meaning application is simple. Mix the harmless powder with water & apply to the soil around the plant using a watering can fitted with a Coarse Rose or the NemaCan Watering Can or use an EasyNem Applicator or Hose-end Feeder  for larger areas.
