Re: Nematodes

Coincidentally, I noticed nematodes were on sale in our local garden centre, but I was shocked at the price. Over £20. They came in a little ball shaped thingy, a bit like a Kinder egg. I would like to have a go with them for the lily beetles which get into my lily pots, but £20 is a bit steep for me.

Lol

More like find a bunch of slugs, stick them in a bucket with an inch of water and a bunch of leaves, cover and leave for two weeks, stirring now and then till the slugs are all dead, then strain and dilute the liquid and away you go
