NaturesGoodGuys Beneficial Nematodes Triple Blend Pack HB+SC+SF (5 Million)

It worked! I had a horrible fungas gnat outbreak. I have about 20 plants in my house, one pot was the culprit, but sadly, well, you know how fast they can get out of hand. I ordered these based off a suggestion from my botanist friend. No more fungas gnats and no chemicals!!

I've tried EVERY organic and natural treatment possible to knock out a persistent and incredibly heavy fungus gnat infestation in my houseplants - hydrogen peroxide, neem oil, cinnamon, mosquito bits, even another brand of nematodes from Amazon. Nothing had worked. NaturesGoodGuys was the only product that finally did what it claimed. Shipping was impressively fast and handled with care...FedEx Priority Overnight from Oregon to NYC, insulated between two gel ice packs. Even though my package was delivered at room temperature, the nematodes inside were still alive and active. I unpacked them right away and placed the sealed organism packets in the fridge (inside their original bubble sleeve to reduce light exposure) as recommended. Following the clear instructions, I mixed and watered all my indoor plants. The results: gnat numbers visibly dropped about 30% per week, and by the fourth week—none at all. I haven’t seen a single gnat in the last week, and my plants are healthy and happy. No more tiny bugs buzzing my screen, face, and lights. You can probably find cheaper nematode products, but these are the real deal. They arrive alive, shipped fast, and with clear instructions. I’m so happy with the result that I’m putting NaturesGoodGuys on my subscribe and save list for future auto-orders. Can’t recommend highly enough if you want a true biological pest control solution that works.

Despite a one-day shipping delay (not the seller's fault), I was pleased with my nematode order. When I contacted the seller about the delay, they reassured me that these beneficial organisms are quite hardy and would remain viable. Following their advice, we examined the nematodes under a microscope before application—they were actively moving and clearly alive! We applied the nematodes across an extensive area: over an acre of yard (targeting ticks, fleas, and mosquitoes), 10 raised garden beds, 5 native herb beds, 30+ container plants on patios and decks, and several dozen indoor planters. The results exceeded my expectations. Within just three days, the persistent gnat problem in my houseplants was completely resolved. After two weeks, we noticed a dramatic reduction in outdoor pests including ants, beetles, ticks, and grubs. As an added bonus, all our plants appear healthier and more vibrant than before. I only wish I had discovered beneficial nematodes sooner—they've been a game-changer for our pest management!

Do these things REALLY work? That is the big question on everyone's mind. Between the worries of "are they still alive" & "did i kill them" to "how do i know if it worked" & "when will i know if it worked", these aren't really things that the home user can see for themselves. It's not like a pesticide where you see the dead bodies of the things that you are killing. These little guys not only work below the dirt, but they work from within what you want to die. So it's a double unseen force. Now in my case, i had a few carpenter ant colonies, hundreds of thousands of japanese beetles, & other little pests that were causing issues. After the first year's application, under i must say not the greatest of conditions, the ant colonies were dead, & the beetles were diminished. Which was a promising first go. The following year's conditions were even worse than the first, from issues with application to an extremely dry season. So the next year's results were a little less than stellar, but the beetles were still reduced. We're hoping that this year we get better results.

Hard to tell, but I’m fairly certain these did help my garden. I had less damage from soil borne pests such as a vine borders, cucumber beetles, and squash bugs. Although they were still there, the numbers were significantly reduced. Prolonging produce season!
