Triple Blend Beneficial Nematodes
Three Species. One Goal: Wipe Out Soil Pests.
This blend combines three of the most effective species of entomopathogenic nematodes:
-
Steinernema feltiae – Stays near the surface to target fungus gnat larvae, shore flies, and thrips pupae
-
Heterorhabditis bacteriophora – Dives deeper to hit grubs, root weevils, and other root-feeding pests
-
Steinernema carpocapsae – Attacks in the top layer of soil; great for cutworms, armyworms, and borers
Together, they deliver fast-acting, full-depth protection across a wide range of soil-dwelling pests.
What It Treats
| Pest | Life Stage Targeted |
|---|---|
| Fungus gnat larvae | Upper soil layer |
| Root weevils | Deep larvae |
| Grubs (Japanese beetles, June bugs) | Soil-dwelling stages |
| Thrips pupae | In substrate |
| Cutworms and armyworms | Topsoil-active larvae |
| Borers and fruit flies | Soil-pupating stages |
| And more | Covers over 200 soil pests |

Why Use the Triple Blend?
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Multiple species | Coverage at different soil depths |
| Fast kill time | Most pests die within 2–5 days |
| Self-replicating | Nematodes multiply inside hosts |
| Safe | No residue, no re-entry, no harm to pollinators |
| Easy to apply | Water-soluble powder mixes quickly and goes straight to work |
Whether you're running a greenhouse, grow tent, garden bed, or orchard, this blend works across crops and pest types—without needing a degree in entomology to deploy it.
Where It Works Best
-
Soil temperatures: 53°F and up
-
Environments: Greenhouses, indoor grows, raised beds, garden plots, field crops
-
Humidity: Maintain even, damp moisture for 7–14 days post-application
-
Light exposure: Apply early morning, evening, or on cloudy days (UV-sensitive)
How Much to Use
| Infestation Level | Coverage |
|---|---|
| Preventive / Light | 5 million nematodes per 300 sq. ft. |
| Moderate to Heavy | 5 million per 50 sq. ft. |
| Reapplication | Every 2–4 weeks if pressure persists |
Use higher rates or reapply more often in hot spots, propagation areas, or known problem zones.
How to Apply
-
Pre-water soil before applying
-
Mix nematode powder with 1–5 gallons of non-chlorinated water (59–69°F)
-
Apply using a watering can, pump sprayer, or through irrigation

Lightly water again afterward to move nematodes deeper into the soil
-
Maintain even moisture for two weeks—don’t let it dry out
