Why NemaFence® Green is so effective
- Parasitic nematodes contain insect-killing symbiotic bacterium
- Infectious juvenile nematodes penetrate host through natural openings
- Once in body cavity, releases symbiotic bacteria to quickly killed host
- Nematodes multiply in the cadaver
- New infectious nematodes released to search for more soil-dwelling pest grubs.
