NEMguard® SC – Natural Nematode Control 1L

NEMguard® SC is a sustainable, natural solution for managing plant-parasitic nematodes in a wide range of crops. Formulated from selected polysulphides derived from garlic, this liquid concentrate not only defends roots against nematode attack but also stimulates root growth and recovery.

Designed for both spray and drip/drench applications, NEMguard® SC offers growers an eco-friendly, zero-MRL (Maximum Residue Limit) option to safeguard their soil and harvests without harming the environment.

Key Benefits:

• Controls plant-parasitic nematodes effectively

• Natural, biodegradable formulation – garlic-based polysulphides

• Zero chemical residues – perfect for organic and export crops

• Promotes root growth & repair

• Eco-friendly and sustainable

• Suitable for spray, drip, or soil drench application

  Mode of Action:

NEMguard® SC uses polysulphides that interfere with nematode sensory and movement systems. It disrupts their ability to locate and infect plant roots, effectively reducing populations and preventing damage. Unlike chemical nematicides, it leaves no toxic residues and supports soil health.
