Why Nemasys® J?
Nemasys® J is a biological control product containing nematodes, which effectively controls young leatherjackets, which are larval stages of craneflies (Tipula spp.), in turfgrass. Feeding damage to the turf roots is prevented. It is compatible with IPM (Integrated Pest Management) systems. Nemasys® J persists for approximately 4 weeks in moist soils, thus protecting against newly emerging leatherjackets. There is no known resistance of leatherjacks to Nemasys® J.
