Natural controls for pests.
Nematodes are very small worms found naturally in our soil and other habitats.
The good nematodes kill the pests affecting your yard and garden. We use one such beneficial nematode, Heterorhabditis bacteriophora , to make GrubStake TM Hb which is highly effective against a number of damaging insect pests, particularly Japanese beetles. Nematodes in their immature infective stage, search, find and kill insects. Nematodes then grow and multiply inside the insect. Nematodes enter an insect and release their own unique bacteria that infect and kill the insect in 36 to 48 hours.
