Nemaslug® is the No.1 bird/wildlife friendly solution for slugs. Nemaslug® will not harm children, pets, birds and wildlife. Song birds i.e. thrushes, hedgehogs, frogs, toads and some insects i.e. ground beetles love to feed on slugs and their eggs. These predators have a significant impact on the slug population, but many of the chemicals used in slug pellets can be toxic to these predators, so if you use them, you run the risk of harming them. There are also increasing concerns about the effects of these chemicals on pets. Unlike Nemaslug®, many slug pellets do NOT work well during wet weather - exactly when you need protection against slugs. Nemaslug® also kills slugs BOTH above and below ground.
Nemaslug® contains millions of microscopic beneficial nematodes (Phasmarhabditis Hermaphrodita) that occur naturally in your soil. They are invisible to the naked eye and come as a powder, which is mixed with water and applied to the soil where they search out and invade the slugs. As the nematodes invade the slug, it will stop feeding and will burrow underground to die. As it decomposes in the soil, the nematodes are released back into the soil to search out more slugs and the whole process starts again. Nemaslug® works at temperatures above 5c/40f, so apply UNDERGLASS all year round OR apply OUTDOORS during the growing season i.e. between March and November. Each application of Nemaslug® will control slugs for six weeks, so for a slug free garden, apply Nemaslug® every 6 weeks.
How is it sent? - Nemaslug® is a perishable, living product, so it is sent out fresh by Royal Mail 1st class post. Being a perishable, living product, it must be used before the expiry date (which is marked on the inside of the pack and will be at least 2 weeks) and it must be stored in the fridge until it is needed. Once opened, the contents do not keep, so it must be used in one day - do NOT store the made up solution or powder. 1 or 2 packs will go through your letterbox and should be popped in the fridge as soon as possible - they are fine on the doormat while you are at work. N.B. Large orders i.e. 3 or more large packs will not fit through the letterbox, so someone will need to be in to receive it.
How to apply? - Nemaslug® is easy to use. Simply mix the harmless powder with water & apply to the soil around the plant using a watering can fitted with a Coarse Rose (we recommend the Fine as Rain Rose no.14) or use an EasyNem Applicator, Hose-end Feeder or a Nematode Applicator for larger areas. Use the whole pack before the expiry date, which is marked on the inside of the pack and will be at least a couple of weeks. Apply in a broad band around your plants to increase the chances of slugs coming into contact with the nematodes.
N.B. Need a Coarse Rose, EasyNem Applicator, Hose-end Feeder or Nematode Applicator - Add one to your basket and save £1.00 off a Coarse Rose, save £3.00 off a EasyNem Applicator or a Hose-end Feeder or save £3.50 off a Nematode Applicator when bought with your nematodes (savings applied at the checkout).

- Best harvest for many years.

Very good service and a very good product. its made a massive difference to our veg plots this season. Best harvest for many years.
Price - I'm really pleased with the results of the nemaslug control
-
I've always found your products to be of good quality and have always been pleased with my past purchases. In fact I'm really pleased with the results of the nemaslug control in my vegetable garden. I recently planted a surplus second crop of beans in an area that had not been treated with the nemaslug and these plants got completely eaten, whereas the plants in the treated area are now 7ft high! I've also discovered we have a visiting hedgehog, so thrilled that my garden is now a greener and safer place for the wildlife.
Price - Nematode Slug Control is an amazing product.
-
Nematode Slug Control is an amazing product. I apply every six weeks and my hostas are fabulous. They are usually destroyed within weeks of coming up.
Price - I know that they will not be harmed.
-
As always items arrived when stated. I am so pleased I use your slug repellent because the birds are now coming back into my garden (new estate) & eating the worms etc from the beds, where I know that they will not be harmed.
Price - Within a week we could find only isolated individuals around the garden.

We had a plague of very large slugs, mainly concentrated underneath our many bird feeders. One wet evening I counted forty plus slugs, some three inches long. The slug nematodes were used as recommended and within a week we could find only isolated individuals around the garden."
Price - Excellent products and service.

Excellent products and service. We applied Nemaslug for two consecutive years and the last two years we have had no problems with slugs since - they seem to have completely disappeared. Early last spring we had a significant problem with moss in the lawn. Application of Organic Moss Control killed off all the moss and the grass grew back quickly - no problems with moss this spring. Recently applied Organic Lawn Fertiliser - lawn is very green and healthy. Many thanks for the advice and help from Green Gardener. Cannot fault the company. Will continue to buy products from them when needed.
Price - Quite a miracle!
-
A very helpful website . I regularly buy Nemaslug , which keeps snails and slugs at bay. Quite a miracle! And so much better than those horrid turquoise slug pellets. If you call them up for advice etc, they are so nice and very helpful.
Price - Good service and a good product
-
The Nemaslug I ordered was dispatched & received very promptly with a generous lead time for 'use by', important in our area of the south east where rainfall can be scant just when you need it. Within a few days of the product being used I have noticed signs that slugs activity is slowing down. Good service and a good product

The nematodes that I ordered from Green Gardener arrived very quickly and we are in good condition. I also had excellent help when I needed to query certain points about the delivery and they responded to my questions very quickly. They even told me what temperature the soil should be for the nematodes to work.Unfortunately it turned very cold just before I added mine so I hope they do work but the nematodes we ordered previously for chafer grubs worked brilliantly.

I have used Nemaslug for a number of years and the slug population is vastly reduced. The monthly doses always come to time and I wouldn't be without them now.

Lots of lovely products that you often can't find at garden centres because a lot of large companies don't seen to be that interested in "green" products, only the big sellers. Of course Green Gardener is the place for nematodes and our quest against slugs. I have had fantastic results and Nemaslug is worth every penny!

Great service at a good price
I have used Green Gardener products for a number of years. They supply a number of natural pest control options and I have tried several of them.
I have used nemaslug successfully for several years, also vine weevil control for adults and grubs. I have also tried encarsia in the greenhouse, adult ladybirds, larvae and lacewing larvae to control greenfly. All products that have worked well and benefitted the garden.
They provide a good and reliable service, particularly the two part delivery which ensures that you treat at the right timePrice - Nemaslug Killer

Nemaslug is amazing! Recommend this to anyone who is cursed with a plethora of slugs and snails! As long as you re-apply as recommended on the packet, you will have no more problems. And yet birds and domestic pets are not harmed.

My Nemaslug pack arrived very quickly with good instructions on how to use. The slugs die below the soil so you don't see them but suddenly my young plants are able to grow. My dog and garden birds are safe.

This year has been terrible for the amount of slugs and snails chomping away on my plants. I decided to try the nematodes. OMG - since I put them on the garden I haven’t seen any slugs and very few snails. It is a miracle product. I will get them again next year and aim to start as early as possible. Such a great product and good communications all the way. Don’t hesitate, give it a go.

I bought nematodes (nemaslug) as my garden was infested with slugs. I was keen to try a green method of slug control. The nematodes were easy to mix with water and to apply - I used a watering can having first enlarged the holes in the rose using a metal skewer. After application I went away for a long weekend and returned to a slug free garden. My tomatoes are recovering. I am amazed with the product. What a result! I have been telling all my friends and colleagues. Thanks!
