{"product_id":"triple-blend-nematodes-for-broad-spectrum-soil-pest-control-1","title":"Triple Blend Nematodes for Broad-Spectrum Soil Pest Control","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree nematode species in one package — \u003cem\u003eSteinernema feltiae\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSteinernema carpocapsae\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHeterorhabditis bacteriophora\u003c\/em\u003e — so the surface, the shallow layer and the deep root zone are covered at once. It is the one to buy when you have more than one soil pest, or when something is eating roots and you cannot say what. You do not have to diagnose it correctly to treat it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat each is doing down there: Sf works the shallow layer on fungus gnat larvae, thrips pupae and fruit fly larvae. Sc ambushes at the surface for fleas, caterpillars, cutworms, sod webworms and crane flies. Hb cruises deep for beetle grubs, chafers and weevil larvae. The two \u003cem\u003eSteinernema\u003c\/em\u003e species enter a host through its natural openings; Hb cuts straight through the cuticle. Either way, the bacteria they release kill the host within a day or two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of it goes down in one watering. No spray, no residue, no re-entry interval, and nothing to keep children, pets or pollinators away from — you mix them into dechlorinated water, water them in and leave them to it. They reach the whole soil column rather than the surface a drench wets, nothing they kill can develop resistance to being parasitized, and they are harmless to earthworms and bees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe honest caveat is temperature. The three do not share a range, so the blend is active across roughly 50–90°F but never with all three working at once — the cool end is Sf's, the warm end is Hb's. And the soil must be moist at application and stay moist for about two weeks, the water dechlorinated, applied in the evening because direct sun kills them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed soil pests, or an unidentified root problem — gnats and grubs at the same time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sizes go by pot count.
