They specifically seek out the caterpillars, supporting biological pest control without the use of chemical insecticides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #305832; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 32px;\"\u003eCombating oak processionary moths: why timing is everything\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe oak processionary moth is a butterfly whose caterpillars live exclusively on oak trees. As long as they are small, they are relatively easy to treat. The situation changes from the third larval stage onwards: they then develop fine stinging hairs that are spread by the wind and pose a health risk to humans and animals. If you want to combat oak processionary moths, you should therefore check your oak trees regularly from spring onwards – the first caterpillars and webs on the trunk or on thicker branches are a signal to act now, not later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #305832; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 32px;\"\u003eNematodes against oak processionary moths on oak trees, paths, and playgrounds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe application is suitable for all oak locations where people need to be protected – from trees in private gardens to parks, school playgrounds, and forest areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #305832; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 32px;\"\u003eWhat the threadworms do on the oak tree\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNematodes are tiny. They are invisible to the naked eye in water. After application, they spread across the treated areas and specifically seek out the caterpillars. The application does not require chemical insecticides, making it a natural alternative for maintaining green spaces and tree populations. To ensure the beneficial insects work optimally, it is best to spray them in the evening or during damp weather. It is only important that they do not dry out and that the caterpillars are still young.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #305832; font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 32px;\"\u003eWhat you should clarify before treatment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep two things in mind. Firstly, protection. Caterpillars and webs must never be touched without suitable protective equipment due to the stinging hairs – this also applies to old, abandoned nests. Secondly, accessibility: the solution must reach the places where the caterpillars are located. This is feasible on a low tree in your own garden, but not easily done on a fully grown oak tree over a playground. In case of doubt, it is worth calling the local authority or a specialist company before climbing a ladder yourself. In addition to nematodes, you can also find other equipment for biological plant protection in one place at GREEN GUARDIA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #305832; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 32px;\"\u003eWhen nematodes alone are not enough\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most important point first: stinging hairs that are already in the air, in the grass, or in old nests do not disappear as a result of treatment. They remain irritating for a long time, and old webs must be professionally removed – the application does not replace this. The solution also does not reach the moths themselves; it works where the caterpillars are. In dry conditions and bright sunshine, conditions are unfavorable, so apply in the evening or in damp weather. Anyone using plant protection products in parallel should check whether these affect the beneficial insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #e2f1e2; padding: 16px; border-left: 4px solid #305832; border-radius: 8px; margin-top: 24px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003e🌿 \u003cstrong\u003eConclusion:\u003c\/strong\u003e GREEN GUARDIA nematodes are a natural and sustainable solution for the biological control of \u003cstrong\u003eoak processionary moths\u003c\/strong\u003e and are suitable for gardens, parks, and other areas with oak trees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 25px; margin-bottom: 0; font-weight: bold; color: #305832;\"\u003eBeing early pays off twice here: order nematodes now!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Green Guardia - Ihr Schädlingsexperte","offers":[{"title":"5 million for 10m²","offer_id":54090610311507,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_5_30493","price":9.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 million for 20m²","offer_id":54090610344275,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_10_30509","price":12.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 million for 30m²","offer_id":54090610377043,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_15_30516","price":16.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 million for 50m²","offer_id":54090610409811,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_25_30523","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 million for 100m²","offer_id":54090610442579,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_50_30530","price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 million for 200m²","offer_id":54090610475347,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_100_30547","price":51.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"150 million for 300m²","offer_id":54090610508115,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_150_30554","price":74.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"200 million for 400m²","offer_id":54090610540883,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_200_30561","price":89.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 million for 500m²","offer_id":54090610573651,"sku":"nematoden_gg_Eichenprozessionsspinner_250_30578","price":109.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/4825\/0195\/files\/nematoden-gegen-eichenprozessionsspinner-8563626.png?v=1782390975","url":"https:\/\/www.greenguardia.de\/en\/products\/nematodes-against-oak-processionary-moths","provider":"Green Guardia - Ihr Experte für Schädlinge und Pflanzen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
