16 reviews

Ants can be a persistent problem in gardens and around homes. An environmentally friendly and effective way to combat ants is by using nematodes. Nematodes are microscopic worms that act as natural enemies of ants. They enter ant nests and infect the ants with bacteria, which leads to their death. This method is safe for pets, children and plants, unlike chemical pesticides. In addition, nematodes help restore the natural balance in the soil, which means that ants are less likely to return.

De aaltjes waren snel in huis. Gedaan wat op de verpakking stond. Maar ik heb nog steeds mieren daar waar ik het niet wil . Volgende keer geen aaltjes meer.

Nematodes vs Ants – Biological and Effective Control

Ants can be a nasty nuisance in gardens and on patios. Although they are generally harmless, they can multiply quickly and cause damage to lawns and plant roots by digging their nests. They can also cause nuisance indoors. It is important to control the ant population in an effective and environmentally friendly way.

The combination of nematodes and yellow sticky traps ensures a strong approach against fungus gnats.

What are nematodes against ants?

Nematodes, such as Steinernema feltiae, are microscopic worms that are used to control ants. These nematodes enter the ant larvae through openings in their bodies and secrete bacteria that are deadly to the larvae. This way, the ant nests are controlled from the inside, which leads to a reduction in the ant population without the use of harmful chemicals.

Benefits of nematodes against ants

  • 100% Organic: Safe for the environment, pets and beneficial insects such as bees and earthworms.
  • Targeted action: Nematodes specifically target the ant larvae without damaging other beneficial organisms.
  • Long-lasting effect: The nematodes remain active as long as ant larvae are present, which provides long-lasting protection.
  • Easy to use: Nematodes are easy to apply by mixing them with water and pouring them onto the areas where ant nests are located.

How do nematodes work against ants?

The nematodes actively search for ant larvae in the soil and nests. As soon as the nematodes enter the larvae, they secrete bacteria that fatally infect the larvae. Within a few days, the ant larvae die, which drastically reduces the population of ants in and around the nests. This process stops the ants from reproducing, which eventually causes the nest to disappear.

When do you use nematodes against ants?

Nematodes can be applied as soon as you notice ants and their nests. They are most effective when the soil temperature is between 10°C and 30°C, which provides the best conditions for both nematodes and ant larvae. In the warmer months, when ants are most active, it is advisable to apply nematodes.

Application of nematodes against ants

Mix the nematodes with water according to the instructions on the packaging and pour the mixture directly onto the ant nests or places where ants are often present. Make sure that the soil remains moist for two weeks after the treatment, so that the nematodes can spread well and do their work optimally. Avoid applying in direct sunlight, because nematodes are sensitive to UV light; therefore, treat the nest preferably in the evening or on a cloudy day.

Safe for humans, animals and the environment

Nematodes are an organic and safe solution to ant control. They are not harmful to humans, pets or other beneficial insects, making them an ideal alternative to chemical pesticides. Nematodes are the perfect choice for anyone looking to get rid of an ant infestation naturally.
