Description
The EXHIBITLINE SC -C- 1 Bag is classified as a high potency biological insecticide, containing 250 million infective juveniles of the Steinernema carpocapsae. This beneficial nematode product is specially tailored for deep soil pest control and is particularly potent against surface and near-surface insect larvae including fungus gnats, cutworms, army worms, and root weevils.
EXHIBITLINE SC -C- 1 Bags are designed for easy application throughout irrigation or spraying systems. Its use provides fast, safe, and effective suppression of pests, encouraging sustainable growing practices. This nematode species is particularly aggressive and uses a search-and-infect mode to kill pests with a symbiotic bacterium.
How It Works
Action Mechanism of Steinernema carpocapsae
Steinernema carpocapsae is an ambush hunting entomopathogenic nematode. They wait near the soil surface or plant debris, and attack pests that come in contact with them. They can also operate inside the host, emitting Xenorhabdus nematophila a bacterium that is capable of killing the insect, enabling steinernema to secure the host.
- Highly effective against surface and shallow soil pests
- Effective capably of quick mortality—most pests are killed in less than 72 hours.
- Leaves zero residue and non-target species are safe from harm.
Their ambusher behavior aids targeting pests such as caterpillars grubs and larvae at the upper soil or soil surface making them uniquely suited to those pests.
