You should closely monitor soil temperatures and the presence of the adult Crane Flies (Daddy Long Legs) to time these applications. It is very important to irrigate immediately after application, water the grass well so the nematodes are washed below the thatch layer into the soil to reach the roots where the larvae will be feeding.

Loosen and prepare the top layer of soil. Prepare it to a fine tilthe and remove any debris for best chance of success. Soil temperatures should be above 10℃ for the nematodes to be active, if applying in the spring. How Do I Apply The Nematodes?Irrigate immediately after application using 2-5 mm water to help wash the nematodes into the soil. Environmentally friendly and safe for children, pets and wildlife. No need to exclude children and pets from treated areas. The nematodes come complete with instructions and can be applied using a watering can with a rose with large holes or nematode applicator. You just apply to moist soil when the soil temperature is above 10ºC (50ºF) and ensure the soil does not dry out for at least two weeks after applying the nematodes. Nematodes are capable of surviving the odd frost, so don't worry if the temperature falls after you have applied them. Continue to keep the lawn moist for up to 2 weeks after application. Repeat these instructions for an introduction of a second nematode sachet application 7 days after the first application. Repeat applications may be required for severe applications. Full instructions are provided on delivery. Can I Store Nematodes?

Garlic Spray: A bitter-tasting spray on the grass will discourage the grubs from eating the grass an they will wriggle away. Hopefully to be caught by birds or swept up off your patio. I have a professional organic garlic spray which I can apply to customers lawns, or you could try to make some yourself by soaking crushed cloves in boiling water overnight.

Protect and keep moist. Birds may try to eat the seed and it does not want to be stepped on whilst it is growing. Also remember to keep it moist, especially on hot spring days.
