| Application: | For the prevention of nematode infestation, mix 3.8 ml (3/4 tsp) of product with one gallon (1 gal) of water to properly dilute Nematode Control. For area applications, use 67.6 oz per acre of land via soil irrigation. If nematode infestation already exists, then mix 7.6 ml (1 1/2 tsp) of product with one gallon (1 gal) of water to properly dilute Nematode Control. For area applications, use 1.1 gallons per acre of land via soil irrigation. After dilution, |

| Mode of Action: | Nematode Control minimizes root knots and egg hatching of phytonematodes by disrupting their feeding and reproduction. It also minimizes the effects of soil pathogens and various impediments caused from soil and climate factors. Nematode Control enhances plant disease resistance and stimulates root growth and plant health. Nematodes, or roundworms, comprise a diverse group of parasites. They are ubiquitous in freshwater, marine, and terrestrial environments, as they are able to adapt very well to different environmental conditions. They are the most numerous multi-cellular animals on earth. Some nematodes are beneficial to plant growth, but others are detrimental. Nematode Control targets the harmful nematodes, which attack plants and serve as carriers for plant viruses in crops. |
