Kraussei-System – rapid control of evil vine weevil grubs
Parasitic nematodes offer relief, even at low temperatures
- Rapid knock-down and long-term protection - from vine weevil larvae (Otiorhynchus sulcatus)
- Wide application window - Steinernema kraussei nematodes are effective at soil temperatures as low as 5°C and up to 30°C
- Easy to use - and safe for humans, animals and environment and not pest resistance issues
How Kraussei-System works
- 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
