- Mix in one part, spray until empty.
- Repeat two more times until you've used the whole pack.
Pro Tips
- Apply outdoors in the morning, evening, or on a cloudy day. Keep out of direct sunlight. Indoors, anytime works.
- Water the soil before applying, and keep it moist for 2 weeks after. The best soil temperature is 44°–86°F. If it's hotter, water generously before and after.
- Skip harsh pesticides. Even some "gentle" ones can harm your nematodes.
Identify the pest first, and catch infestations early for best results.
- Use right away for best results. If you need to hold onto them, store at 36–45°F, out of light, for up to 30 days. Don't freeze them.
- Once mixed with water, use within 6 hours.
