Help support biological innovation for slug and snail management

Slugs and snails can severely harm crops by feeding on their leaves, roots, stems and seeds damaging growing crops and reducing germination resulting in unsellable crops. To take-on these pests, we have developed a new biological innovation that provides a safer and more sustainable solution to managing slugs and snails. In order bring this new beneficial nematode to the U.S., we first need to prove that the Phasmarhabditis californica (a species of beneficial nematode) is native to the U.S. To do this, we are asking you to help collect slugs and snails for research.

By participating in this important research, you will be taking part in bringing a new biological solution to the market! As a thank you, you’ll receive a gift and regular updates throughout the scouting process. Once the species is found, we will let you know and give you early access to sales and purchasing information.
