nematodes


        The other day I recieved a catalog of organic pest control called
Gardeners Choice. They carry a type of beneficial nematodes that they say
can be injected into curcurbits and other fruits to control borers
including squash vine borers. They claim that it can be delivered via
syringe at specified intervals and the nematodes will search and destroy
the borers. I have heard of these nematodes before but only as to add to
the soil to kill grubs and such, but if this if true it would be a great
help. Has anyone out there ever tried these? Do they work ? If so it would
be easier than cutting open the vine when a borer gets by your defenses.
