Gardening Naturally Carrot Root Fly Nematodes
Keep your carrot crop safe from destructive carrot root fly larvae with these effective nematodes. Each pack treats up to 60 square metres, providing natural protection for your harvest.
When Carrot Root Fly Strikes
The carrot root fly emerges in two main cycles:
- April to June
- August to October
After laying eggs in the soil, they hatch in just 7 days, releasing creamy-yellow larvae that feed on carrot roots. These pests tunnel into developing carrots, causing brown-red scarring, wilting leaves, and stunted growth.
How Nematodes Work
These beneficial nematodes target and eliminate carrot root fly larvae and eggs in the soil, stopping damage before it starts. For best results, combine with Veggiemesh carrot netting for complete protection.
Application Tips
- Apply when soil temperatures are above 10°C.
- If spraying over plants, water within 30 minutes to wash nematodes into the soil.
- Store in the fridge (below 5°C) and use before the expiry date.
