Corn rootworms (including western, northern and southern corn rootworms) are a major pest to corn plants and can cause significant crop damage. The good news is that beneficial nematodes are a great, all natural and completely safe way to kill these insect pests. The beneficial nematodes in BioLogic's Scanmask hunt down and kill corn rootworm larvae in the soil, preventing further root damage and stopping new adults from emerging.

See our western corn rootworm, northern corn rootworm, and southern corn rootworm pages in Pest ID. The Pest ID provides information on many common insect pests, including their life cycle, which nematode products to use, and how and when to apply.
