Whats the latest vine weevil treatment for containerised plants (I
have
over 300 containers). How do the professionals deal with VW.

Thanks Sacha

I use your nursery when I am in the area and knew that you used other
biological control methods. I just wondered how you use the VW
nematodes, do you use them as a precaution in all pots or just as you
find VW.

In spring and autumn we put them in a diluter and water them onto all pots,
everywhere throughout the whole nursery. An individual with just a few pots
would use a watering can, of course.
