How to get the best from Nemasys® G:
- Apply when soil temperature is between 12-30 oC
- Use immediately on receipt of packs or refrigerate at 5oC (do not freeze)
- Avoid application in direct sunlight; nematodes are uv-sensitive, so apply on a dull day or in the evening
- Cut the grass short before application and consider scarification in turf with excessive thatch
- Apply when the soil under the turf is moist
- Use within expiry date
- Use the entire pack and do not store stock solution or diluted product
- Make a stock solution as directed on the label, making a paste in the first instance and then adding remainder of the water, to avoid lumps forming; this solution should be mixed thoroughly to ensure nematodes are well dispersed and kept agitated
- Application is as a soil drench via boom sprayer, knapsack, lance or sprinklers, selecting the nozzle to give a coarse spray; the nozzle aperture should be greater than 0.5 mm
- Remove all fine filters (50 mesh or smaller) from the application equipment
- Partially fill tank with water, add stock solution, fill with water to the required level and maintain agitation
- Do not exceed 300 psi/20 bar/2000 kPa pump pressure
- Irrigate the turf thoroughly after application to wash the nematodes into the soil and keep the soil moist for at least two weeks after application
