After a few days the flies are gone.

Calculate how much you give per plant, and give a little more water for a while. Hope they stay away

Flies disappeared

Flies seem to disappear quickly, no more visible flies and no new flies on the sticky traps.

It worked! Almost no more fungus gnats

The banana leaf has helped tremendously. I now have almost no more fungus gnats. To be on the safe side, I will also eradicate the latter by repeating the treatment once more.

It works

Good manual, and the nematodes do what they are supposed to do. I was rid of the flies within a week. Very happy that my plants survived because of this!

I have bought nematodes from others in the past, but they did not work, I think it got too hot.

Nematodes against Fungus gnats – Biological and Effective Control

Fungus gnats, also known as sciarid flies, are small black gnats that like to nest in potting soil. The larvae of fungus gnats can cause considerable damage to houseplants and young crops, because they feed on the roots. This leads to wilted plants and sometimes even death. It is important to combat fungus gnats in time to protect your plants and prevent further damage.

With the 5 Tips from Nematodes Against Pests you can control fungus gnats and ensure a clean and safe environment.

What are nematodes against fungus gnats?

Nematodes, such as Steinernema feltiae, are microscopic worms that are used against fungus gnats. These nematodes penetrate the fungus gnat larvae and secrete bacteria that fatally infect the larvae. Within a few days, the larvae die, which breaks the fungus gnat's reproductive cycle and drastically reduces the population.

Benefits of nematodes against fungus gnats

  • 100% organic: Completely safe for the environment, pets and beneficial insects.
  • Targeted action: Nematodes only infect the harmful fungus gnat larvae without affecting other beneficial organisms.
  • Fast acting: Within a few days of application there is a noticeable reduction in larvae.
  • Easy to apply: The nematodes are easy to mix with water and can easily be applied to the affected potting soil

How do nematodes work against fungus gnats?

The nematodes actively seek out the larvae of the fungus gnats in the soil. Once the nematodes come into contact with a larva, they penetrate it and secrete bacteria that are deadly to the larva. Within a few days, the larva dies, and the nematodes multiply to continue to fight the remaining larvae. This stops the fungus gnats in their early life stage, making your plants safe.

When do you use nematodes against fungus gnats?

Nematodes can be used all year round, but they are most effective at room temperatures between 12°C and 30°C. As soon as you notice signs of fungus gnats, such as the presence of small black flies around your plants, it is time to introduce the nematodes. Repeat the treatment after 2 to 3 weeks to tackle new larvae that have hatched from the eggs.

Application of nematodes against fungus gnats

Mix the nematodes with water according to the instructions on the packaging and pour the mixture onto the potting soil around your affected plants. Make sure the soil remains moist after the treatment, so that the nematodes can spread well and do their work. It is advisable to carry out the treatment in the evening, because nematodes are sensitive to UV light.

Safe for humans, animals and the environment

Nematodes are a safe and environmentally friendly solution for controlling fungus gnats. They pose no danger to people, pets or other beneficial organisms. This makes them an ideal alternative to chemical pesticides, especially indoors or in gardens where you want to control pests safely and effectively.
