Steinernema feltiae beneficial nematodes, are naturally occurring soil-dwelling roundworms that specialize in controlling insects with a soil stage. Highly effective against fungus gnat larvae, thrips pupae, root maggots, and shore flies, these nematodes are widely used in greenhouses, nurseries, hydroponics, and houseplants. Safe for people, pets, pollinators, and beneficial insects, S. feltiae provides consistent, biological protection below the soil surface without chemicals.

How It Works
Once applied, nematodes move through soil or growing media to locate pests. They penetrate the insect body through natural openings or the cuticle and release symbiotic bacteria that kill the host within 48–72 hours. Nematodes reproduce inside the pest, and new juveniles emerge to find fresh hosts. Populations persist for 2–4 weeks as long as suitable hosts remain.

Targets These Pest Species

  • Fungus Gnats (Bradysia impatiens)

  • Shore Flies

  • Sciarids

  • Thrips (Franklinothrips spp., pupal stage)

  • Apply early morning or evening to avoid UV exposure

  • Nematodes reproduce in hosts and remain active for up to 2 weeks in soil

Application Instructions

  • Mix with water and apply using hose-end sprayer, pump sprayer, watering can, fertigation/irrigation systems, or syringe for hydroponic cubes/media

  • Apply immediately after mixing; do not leave nematodes in water for more than 2 hours

  • Pre-water area before application and lightly water afterward to aid soil penetration

  • Apply twice, 7–10 days apart, to break pest life cycles

  • Repeat in spring and fall or as pest pressure dictates

Best Idea for Puppy's First Day Home
Color: Pink
I was a bit reserved on purchasing this kit because it was a bit expensive. After a month now with my pup at home, this was the best investment for us and our GSD. On the first night, we used the heart beating snuggle puppy and blanket. She slept the entire night without an accident or a cry. The heartbeat in the snuggle puppy and the heat pad was the best idea. Our puppy never felt alone (just fyi, her crate was in the room with us for the 2 weeks). A month later, she is so protective of her snuggle puppy. We only used 1 heat pack to soothe her during the first week. The heat packs last a while. Our GSD now uses the snuggle puppy as a pillow or an object to be close to while she is in her crate. Any new puppy owner could definitely benefit from using this. Of course, with all things puppy, it does require a bit of time to correlate toys as a positive thing. We exclusively keep the snuggle puppy in her crate and make it a part of her secure place. My GSD puppy did really care for the teething heart toy. Even after freezing it, she didn't care for it. She also outgrew the small toy. She will chew it from time to time but it doesn't entertain her much. I found the kit, overall, very helpful with our puppy's adjustment to our home. She sleeps through the night since 8 weeks old and now at 12 weeks old. We've never had an accident in her crate overnight with the help with the snuggle puppy.

Amazing kit for your puppy
Color: Blue
We’ve had 6 puppies over the years, and this is the first time we’ve had this wonderful little kit to welcome our little one home. We had the blanket with his litter so it smelled like them when he came home. He he loves that blanket, he loves the dog with the little heartbeat, and the teething toys. The 5 star review is because everything in this kit is so well made, really wonderful quality, and a great value. The blanket is a very nice thick plush, not some cheap one. The stuffed dog is big and fluffy and well made, the heartbeat works wonderfully, and the little chew toys safe and well made.i would encourage anyone who’s bringing home. A little one please get this first. It’s going to make your pup more comfortable when they get home, and will help then sleep better during the night and their naps. Very Well Done !

A must have for a new puppy.
Color: Pink
I just got my first new puppy in many years, and I was searching for ideas of what items I should get to be ready for her. A dog forum I belong to gave suggestions for items to prepare for a new pup. One of the items listed was a snuggle puppy. I was not familiar with the product, and did some research. I had always heard that lonesome puppies respond well to a hot water bottle and ticking clock for comfort. A friend had suggested a stuffed animal. I found all of that in one package - The Snuggle Puppy! And even better was the complete new puppy package. The blanket is adorable, very soft and the perfect size. The toys are perfect, and they include extra warmers for the puppy. I keep my girl in a kennel at night with her blanket and puppy. The first night I tried just the blanket, and she cried and howled for 15 minutes. Then I turned the heart beat on and put the puppy in the crate with her. Within 5 minutes she was quiet and stayed that way all night. I have used it every night since and not a peep. (It's been a week now). I would highly recommend these products to anyone bringing a pup home - it was a sleep saver for sure and she seems to love it.

Great for a small puppy
Color: Pink
Got these for my puppy, a German shepherd, while it was functional, she loved it, as it was chewability, durability and ease of use.

Heartbeat didn't last!

This is a nice cuddly puppy. Our dog loves this in her crate. The puppy and the blanket wash very well. The heartbeat lasted for a couple weeks only!
