Effective Sciarid Fly Control for Houseplants and Greenhouses

Sciarid fly, also known as fungus gnat or compost fly, is a common pest that affects houseplants and greenhouse plants. These pests can damage plants by attacking their roots, leading to stunted growth or even death in seedlings. Protect your plants with our nematodes designed to target and control sciarid fly larvae.

How Sciarid Fly Nematodes Work

The larval stage of the sciarid fly feeds on the roots of plants. Our nematodes attack the larvae directly, significantly reducing the sciarid fly population and protecting your plants from further damage.

Safe and Easy Application

These nematodes are easy to apply—simply water them into the soil to target the larvae. The treatment is completely safe for children, pets, and wildlife, making it the perfect solution for organic gardeners.

Safe for Edible Plants

These nematodes are suitable for use on fruit and vegetable plants. You can harvest and consume your produce straight after application, knowing that it is safe and free from harmful chemicals.

Coverage and Application Time

Treats an area of 12 sq.m. Best applied from April to August, but can be used year-round indoors on houseplants.

How to Apply Nematodes

To apply, simply drench the soil around the plant roots or where the pest is present. Ensure the soil is moist, then water in the nematodes. For larger areas, use a hose-end applicator. Alternatively, a watering can with a coarse rose head can be used for more precise application.

Frequency of Application

For best results, repeat applications are required to control the pest. Continue applying as needed to ensure effective sciarid fly management.

Important Notes

Please note: Nematodes are live material and cannot be returned. They typically have a shelf life of about 2 weeks, so please use them within this time frame for maximum effectiveness.
