Nematodes are microscopic worms that kill grubs. They are to be mixed in with water to allow them to wake up and strayed on grass. Once in the soil, they inject the grubs with pathogens that multiple to kill them within a day or two. Then the nematodes lay their eggs, and the new babies go out and search for more. Benefits and Characteristics easy to use pesticide free grub killer kills grubs within 1 or 2 days harmless to humans, health, pets, plants, and the environment extended slow-release formula once applied the nematodes keep working How to Use Step 1Remove sprayer lid. Step 2Open nematodes tube and place the pouches in the sprayer. To avoid clogging the sprayer, do not tear or open the pouches when placing into the sprayer. Step 3Activate nematodes by adding about 2.5 cm (1 in) of warm water in the sprayer. Activated nematodes are sufficiently small so that they will pass through the mesh of the pouches. Step 4Add room temperature water to fill sprayer bottle. Step 5Fasten lid securely and shake vigorously to evenly disperse nematodes. Nematodes are sufficiently microscopic to flow through mesh of the pouches. Step 6Attach garden hose to sprayer and turn valve to “Mix” position to begin spraying. Step 7Start spraying in most affected area of lawn first and complete spraying outwards to provide total nematode coverage. Agitate spraying solution often during application because nematodes are heavier than water and will sink to the bottom of the bottle. Step 8Keep lawn moist for the next 3 days (or 1 week in dry weather) to ensure nematodes are flushed into the turf canopy where grubs are present.
