I live in the heart of Texas where fire ants are KING. I have used the benefical nematodes for many years and have never had a fire ant mound in all that time - plus we do not have a flea problem and I do not use any chemical flea prodcuts in my yard or on my boys. If they get a flea from a walk outisde our yard, I use Dawn dish soap bath.

The nematodes (microscopic) are completely harmless to pets, thus, I don't have to use any harmful chemicals around my babies.

You can get benefical nematodes at your local ORGANIC garden store (not Home Depot or Walmart, or places like that) or you can order them online.

They really work!
I am interested in doing this. How much do you get for your yard
