Product Description

Conceal Candles have proven to be a far better inhibitor for warding off biting insects than either Citronella or DEET. In fact, in comparative tests conducted in Florida swampland using protocols accepted by the USDA and EPA, people in the vicinity of Conceal Candles experienced less than 10% of the mosquito landings of people using Citronella candles for protection. Conceal is an inhibitor, not a repellent. Repellents like Citronella and DEET simply smell bad. Mosquitoes avoid them and search for a target that smells better. That's where they bite. A mosquito with a "nose-full" of Conceal, however, has difficulty smelling anything or anyone, so they can't home in on human targets. Conceal is available in a variety of attractive candles to protect people from biting insects. Candles burn slowly, cost less than 15 cents per hour and deliver a high level of protection. All candles come in standard pillar diameters of 75mm and 100mm (3 and 4 inches), so they will fit your existing candle holders. To protect your candles during shipment, they are wrapped in a protective liner and mailed in a custom fit box. Conceal Candles are approved for sale in Canada. At this time, we cannot ship to U.S. addresses. Other customers, please contact us for availability by writing to sales@biosensory.com ... Read more

Don't let moles ruin your lawn! Apply granular Mole-Med Dry and protect your lawn from mole damage for up to two months!

By digging tunnels near the soil surface and pushing up numerous small mounds of earth, moles, voles and other burrowing animals can spoil the beauty of your lawn and damage plant roots. A network of surface ridges in the turf or a series of conical mounds of earth pushed up from deep burrows are telltale signs that moles have taken up residence on your property.

Tested and proven effective by university researchers, Mole-Med produces an odor that moles can't stand. It drives moles away--but doesn't kill them. (Mole-Med comes from castor beans and won't bother the human nose.)

The granular formulation of all-natural Mole-Med Dry is clean and dry. It can be applied by hand or by a broadcast or rotary spreader. In our research trials, we found that granular Mole-Med Dry took far less time to apply than repellent sprays (as much as 10 times faster), yet was just as effective. It's ready-to-use and needs no water, no mixing.

You can apply Mole-Med Dry to wet or dry lawns. One package covers 2,500 sq. ft. Reapply in two months (through spring, summer and fall), or sooner if you've had a lot of rain. Effective against the common Eastern mole.

Product Description

Nematodes are microscopic non-segmented worms which occur naturally in soil all over the world. Thousands of strains exist with different lifestyles. Beneficial nematodes only attack soil dwelling insects and leave plants alone. The nematodes enter the host through body openings or by penetration of the body wall. Once inside they release a bacterium which kills the host within 48 hours. The nematodes continue to reproduce and its offspring begin to seek out new host material. Beneficial nematodes are a totally safe biological parasitic insect control organism. The beneficial nematodes are so safe the EPA has waived the registration requirements for application. ...

Elusive solutions
If you have a soil-dwelling insect problem, the best bet for you is Orcon's top-selling Nematodes. These worms, though invisible to the naked eye, are an excellent means of crop protection in either the home garden or commercial field. When I first bought my nematodes, I noticed within the week a serious reduction in pest signs. This satisfaction slowly vanished, however, after several nights of further consideration. As you can see in the picture, nematodes are not the prettiest animal to promote in the garden, and it soon became apparent to me that I had just loosed seven million of the creatures into my 10'x4' vegetable garden. As I spend a considerable portion of my time out of doors, I was suddenly living in Nematode Village, USA, grinding their non-segmented bodies between my toes, inhaling nematode bodies and excrement, and likely tracking them all over the house when I came inside. When I uprooted a head of lettuce from the garden one evening and prepared a salad, I brought the greens to my mouth and couldn't shake the feeling that tiny, swarming nematodes were frolicking about my gumline. This was the straw that broke the camel's back.

After some frantic researching, I decided that ladybugs would eliminate the nematode colony and solve everything that had gone wrong. The more the merrier, I said, and placed an order for Orcon's convenient 9000-count bundle. Well, you may gather where this is going, but it took Orcon lacewings to kill the ladybugs, and for the lacewings I bought 6 egg cases of Orcon praying mantids (an equivalent of 6000 young). When Orcon told me the best control of mantids was their top-selling nematode, I finally wised up. Like some sick version of a Looney Tunes episode, I was back where I started and no closer to eternally ridding my garden of pests.

If you know what you're getting into, I still appreciate the soil-dwelling insect control capabilities of the nematode, but users beware. Take a lesson from me and avoid Orcon's consumer scheme. Insects and parasites might be destructive to your cultigens, but as far as the independent planter is concerned they as a unit are a necessary evil with no easy solution. If you want the quick fix I was after, forget about it.

It's like a party in my skin
I was very disappointed with this product. It was quite a let down when, after seven days of edge-of-the-seat waiting (last time I go in for super saver shipping), the postman delivered not a large and wriggling sack of run-of-the-mill plant-parasitic nematodes, but rather one containing seven million or so specimens of Borneo cutaneous larva migrans (a.k.a. "Creeping Nematodes"). I don't know whether I got exactly seven million of them, but my doctor assures me that they are in fact the rare Borneo variant.

On the bright side, I got a tremendous bargain on so many specimens of such a rare parasite. And the course of treatment consists of just a few short months of Nematodicidal jellies and suppositories and a few potent sedatives to help me sleep through the otherwise unbearable itchiness caused as these little devils burrow around under my skin.

However, I'm reluctant to give these Nematodes any fewer than five stars. I might not like what they're doing, but they're doing a great job at it!

For better buys, I'd recommend the Greensense "Beneficial Nematodes" or the "Titicaca Pool Party" sized bag of candiru.

Rip-off
I only got 6,999,997 nematodes. Project remains incomplete.

Great for my Lawn
I purchased a similar nematode package from another on-line gardening retailer. They were very effective for reducing the grub problem in my yard. Killing the grubs also helped to keep the skunks away, which is great because it took 2 weeks to get the smell off my German Shepherd. All-in-all, a great solution because I wanted to avoid pesticides -- my kids are young enough to do stupid things like eat dirt.

The idea of nematode worms might gross you out, but they are totally safe for humans and not nearly as visible as the picture suggests. In fact, human body temperature will kill the worms. They are used not only for crops, but extensively on golf courses and can be used in conjunction with many pesticides. I don't know if Amazon will let me post a link, so just search for "Ohio State" and "nematodes" to get great info and even a free video and poster (which is very cool for the kids). ... Read more
