Sciarid fly nematodes target the larvae of the sciarid fly, also known as fungus gnat or compost fly. By attacking the larvae, these nematodes significantly reduce the population of sciarid flies and help prevent damage to plant roots and seedlings
When and how should I apply sciarid fly nematodes?
Apply sciarid fly nematodes from April to August, though they can be used year-round indoors on houseplants. Water the nematodes into moist soil around the roots of plants using a watering can with a coarse rose head or a hose-end applicator for larger areas

Yes, sciarid fly nematodes are safe for use on fruit and vegetables, and these can be eaten immediately after application. They are also harmless to children, pets, and wildlife, making them a safe and effective solution for pest control
