Steinernema carpocapsae – Entomopathogenic nematodes
How It Works: Steinernema carpocapsae nematodes will enter the pest larvae and release symbiotic bacteria into the body cavity. This bacteria converts the larval tissue into a food source, on which the nematodes feed, develop and reproduce. The host pest dies within a few hours to days after infection.
Target Pests:
- Shore Fly larvae
- Caterpillars from the Lepidoptera order.
- Examples: Box Tree Moth, Tomato Leaf Miner, Diamond Back Moth, Armyworms, Cotton Bollworm, Corn Earworm, Tomato Looper, Cutworms, Silvery Moth, European Pepper Moth, Cabbage Looper, and Cranberry Girdler.
