These microscopic soldiers actively seek out and attack the fungus gnat larvae in the soil. By preventing the larvae from developing into gnats and laying eggs, NemaBlom usually eradicates the fungus gnat population within just over 1 week. With each infestation, a new generation of nematodes is created in the soil, ensuring continuous and long-lasting protection.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">NemaBlom is based on the nematode Steinernema feltiae, an effective natural enemy of various pests. It can be used against attacks from:</span></p> <ul> <li>Fungus gnats</li> <li>Crane flies</li> <li>Flower thrips</li> <li>Leaf miners, especially in smaller greenhouses and vegetable production<br><br> </li> </ul> <p><strong>Sustainable and long-term protection solution</strong></p> <p>The nematodes in dormant stage, which corresponds to their state at purchase, can lie latent in the soil and wait for new fungus gnat larvae provided the soil is not allowed to dry out. In this way, NemaBlom provides long-term and reliable protection against fungus gnat larvae.</p> <p><strong>Product storage and shelf life</strong></p> <p>NemaBlom has a shelf life of 1 year from the production date if the package is stored cool (but not below freezing). At room temperature, the package lasts about 3 months. A resealed package retains its shelf life even if it has been opened. Note that nematodes are sensitive to sunlight, drying out, temperatures below 0°C and above +30°C.</p> <p>Since the cold chain is broken upon delivery, it is recommended to use the product as soon as possible after receipt.</p> <p><strong>How does it work?</strong></p> <p>The nematodes move freely in the soil and actively seek their hosts by following substances secreted by the larvae. They attack the larvae through natural body openings, leading to their rapid death. The nematodes reproduce inside the larva, and after about 10 days a new generation of nematodes spreads to seek out and combat new larvae.</p> <p>NemaBlom can also be used preventively, as the nematodes can survive in the soil for up to 1 year.</p> <p><meta charset="utf-8">The nematodes in NemaBlom do not affect plants, other animals, or humans.</p> <p><strong>Dosage</strong></p> <p>One package of NemaBlom is enough for about 20 pots or 2 square meters of soil.</p>
