NEMATODES AGAINST WHITE WORMS OR FUNG FLIES

White worms are larvae of the vine weevil or that of the cockchafer. The damage caused by the vine weevil larva is numerous. Very voracious as soon as it emerges from the egg, the larva feeds on small roots. It particularly likes: rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, cyclamens, fuchsias, primroses, conifers, strawberries, etc. The main symptoms are the etiolation and dieback of the attacked plant. The damage caused by the cockchafer larva is numerous. Able to live up to 3 years and measure up to 4 cm, the cockchafer larva is a real scourge for the garden. It likes: vegetables with tubers or large roots such as potatoes, carrots, beets, turnips, shrub roots, roots of perennial plants, lawns. The main symptoms are slowed growth, yellowing and finally death of the plant if the attack is significant. Fungus gnats are small dark flies found mainly in warm and humid environments near plants. Fungus gnats are a very suitable environment for them. After mating, the females lay 50 to 200 eggs on the substrate of cultivated plants. After 2 to 3 days, the larvae will hatch and enter the substrate where they will feed on the dead organic matter but also attack the plants. Indeed, the larvae will penetrate the roots or stems of cuttings, seedlings or young plants by perforating them. The symptoms of an attack are etiolation or slowing down of the growth of the plant. Cases of serious attacks can lead to the death of the plants. Nematodes are microscopic worms living in the soil. They move through the soil in search of insect larvae that they penetrate and parasitize by multiplying inside, thus causing their death. Once their target is eliminated, the many nematodes that have developed, go in search of other prey and continue to clean your garden relentlessly! Nematodes exist naturally in soils but rarely in a sufficient way to fight pests. By increasing their density in the soil, you ensure effective protection for your plants. Nematodes do not present any inconvenience for humans or domestic animals. Nematodes will help you protect your planters and potted plants from white worms or fungus gnats. Nematode treatment can be done preventively or curatively as soon as the pests appear when the temperature reaches 10 to 12°C.
