Storage
Nematodes are alive and should be released as soon as possible..you can see them with a magnifying glass. They will arrive to you unevenly dispersed in a strip of moist spore in the package. Refrigeration at 40-50 degrees f is the best way to temporarily store them...the sponge must remain damp. Add a few drops of water if the sponge appears to be drying out.
Release
Remove the sponge from the package. Neomatodes migrate into the sponge during shipping. Rinse the sponge and container, as completely as possible, into one gallon of water. You now have a concentrate. The neomatodes can withstand pressures up to 300 psi, therefore, you can apply them using your injector system, or dilute them with more water and use a pump sprayer, hose -end sprayer, watering can or pail. Constants agitation of the solution while applying will insure a more consistant application of the nematodes. They will survive in oxygen rich water, such as nutrient film technique (nft) systems, but you should not leave them in standing water for more than 2 hours. It is best to release them in the evening. They should be watered in to your media. A rinse of plain water after application will help insure that they have been carried into the root zone.
