"We applied the nematodes and the brown patches on our lawns have definitely stopped spreading. The fresh grass is already growing. We also used your autumn lawn feed and the benefit is apparent. Last year we helplessly watched as our lawns were mutilated. This year we have been able to fight back. Thank you, from two keen gardeners." Brenda and Cyril.

Sulphur Lawn Wormcast Control

Sulphur Lawn Drive away worms (without harming them!)and stop wormcasts by lowering the pH of your lawn -  Worms are good for the garden, helping to aerate the soil and mix in organic matter. In the lawn however, they or rather their worm casts can be a real nuisance as worm casts ruin the appearance of a fine lawn. Ignoring them by squashing them flat with your mower will create an uneven surface, smother existing grass & provide an ideal seed bed for weeds to grow. Worms do not like acidic conditions, (but your lawn does) so the more acidic your lawn, the less problem worms and their casts will be. Discourage worm activity and stop wormcasts by applying Sulphur Lawn to lower the pH of your lawn. Down in price this year!

Sulphur Lawn does not harm the worms, but by increases the acidity of the soil encourages worms to move elsewhere - the target pH is 5-6 to stop worm activity. Apply when worms are at their most active, after periods of heavy rain usually in spring, early summer & autumn. For persistent wormcast problems apply every 2 months.

  • Harmless to worms and other beneficial creatures.
  • Plant nutrients in the soil become more available leading to better grass colour and improved growth.
  • Comes as a powder / granules which can be stored and used as required.
  • No need to exclude children or pets after application.

"I purchased 2 packs of ant nematodes a couple of weeks back and used them on my lawns straight away. WOW, I have no ants. They have all gone where I used the product. However, I have other areas which need treating so I will buying 2 more packs. Thanks for a great product, we can now sit in the garden without those crawlies around ones feet." Peter & Chris

 

"I have had a problem for years with red ants in my lawn - I used your ant nemtodes and I can't find a trace of an ant anywhere. My son and his friends now run on the lawn with bare feet." Susie by email

"I just thought I would let you know how well the nematodes have worked in controlling our ant problem. We had almost given up hope of ever being able to venture onto our grass without either being bitten by the red ants or if you stood still for too long having your feet covered in black ants. We purchased the 4 weekly attack pack & I am about to apply the last instalment, but am having trouble finding a nest to apply it to! It has worked so well." Cheryl Edwards by email

Mole control on lawns

Controlling moles - Moles are one of the most destructive of garden pests and can cause havoc in lawns and flower beds. Often it is the best kept gardens that suffer the most, as the moles feed on worms which good gardeners encourage. Position solar molers and use mole repellent powder as soon as you see the tell tale signs to stop them ruining your lawn. Wetter weather leads to an increase in mole activity as the moles dig new tunnels to higher ground to escape flooded tunnels.   

Mole Damage - Mole hills and surface tunnelling are the most obvious signs of mole damage but their tunnels can also undermine plant roots, concrete slabs, etc plus other small animals such as voles will use these tunnels and will eat away at plant roots and tubers. Moles are attracted to lawns as they are the perfect hunting ground for their favourite food - worms!

 
 

Solar Moler - Mole chasers are normally battery operated so as the battery runs down you're never quite sure if they are working! This one is solar powered - the ultimate environmentally friendly power source, so no more batteries! 

 

Solar Moler - Now you can have a Solar Moler working away day after day, without having the worry or expense of changing batteries. Powered by a small solar panel, it emits a discreet noise underground that the mole can hear. Being inquisitive the mole is initially attracted to the noise, but after a few days it will become increasingly irritated and move away. Simply pushes into the ground so can be easily moved around the garden driving the moles away. One Solar Moler treats over 600sqm/750sqyds.

 

 

Organic Mole Repellent - This repellent powder is 100% organic and is harmless to children, plants and animals. It works by simulating that the area is now home to a predator and is therefore no longer safe, so the moles move away WITHOUT being harmed. Lightly sprinkle 100gms of the repellent directly into the moles' tunnels. For larger areas, repeat the process to create a powerful sensory boundary. It starts working immediately and is fully biodegradable. Repeat the process once every 2 months if the problem persists. Available in 900g tubs which treat a total of 155 sqm. N.B. We also have Rat and Squirrel repellent powders. Currently unavailable.

 

NEW - Natural Mole Smoke Poison mole smokes have not been available for many years, but now we have an organic mole smoke available which repels moles WITHOUT harming them! Once lit inside the moles' tunnels, the smoke coats the inside with castor oil forming a physical barrier and taints the moles’ food source i.e. worms encouraging the moles to go elswhere.

How to use them - Locate the moles' tunnel under a mole hill. Remove the lid from the mole smoke and light the fuse. Push the lit smoke down into the tunnel with the fused end pointing lengthways down the tunnel. Cover the hole gently with earth and make sure that the tunnels leading away from the mole hill are also well covered, so smoke does not leak out. Repeat as required using 1 smoke per 3 molehills. Natural Mole Smokes may be stored ready for a mole emergency!

 

 

Sulphur Lawn - The other way to stop moles is to drive away their food i.e. worms by lowering the pH of your lawn. Worms are good for the garden, however in the lawn, they can be a real nuisance attracting moles and their worm casts can ruin the appearance of the lawn. By increasing the acidity of the soil it encourages the worms to move elsewhere - the target pH is 5-6 to stop worm activity. Apply Sulphur Lawn when worms are at their most active i.e. after periods of heavy rain i.e. NOW to lower the pH of your lawn, driving the worms away. For persistent wormcast problems apply every 2 months. To find out more about applying Sulphur Lawn, select LAWN PRODUCTS from the menu on the left.
