Re: Foliar Nematodes- Temik
Dave and Butch,
It was my understanding that Temik was removed from the market after it was
misused on watermelons to tragic consequences. It is both a neurotoxin and
is carcinonogenic. Not the sort of thing that most gardeners would want to
use. It was primarily used in the greenhouse trade on ornamentals and was
not to be used in the field due to possible ground water contamination. I
am sure that it would kill foliar nematode, however.
