turf nematicide<br />
Eagle Green Care<br />
The only CRD approved nematicide in<br />
the UK for protecting golf greens, soccer<br />
pitches and all sports and amenity turf<br />
WHY Eagle Green Care<br />
❚ Laboratory tests have shown that Eagle<br />
Green Care will rapidly kill all plant<br />
parasitic nematodes<br />
❚ Significantly reduces ectoparasitic and<br />
endoparasitic nematode levels in golf<br />
greens and sportsfields<br />
In recent years, damage to sports and amenity turfgrass by<br />
plant parasitic nematodes has become a major problem.<br />
These microscopic parasites can feed externally on grass<br />
roots (ectoparasites) or completely enter the root to feed<br />
(endoparasites). Across Europe many turfgrass managers are<br />
experiencing severe turf chlorosis and turf loss on putting<br />
greens, football pitches, bowling greens, and so on.<br />
Spiral nematode damage<br />
The nematodes use their feeding<br />
spear (stylet) to pierce plant root<br />
cells and feed on cell contents<br />

information before use.<br />
Reducing nematode populations in a sports turf can quickly<br />
promote an increase in turf quality and performance.<br />
Currently Eagle Green Care is the only nematicide in the UK<br />
that is approved for use on sportsfields and amenity turf<br />
areas.<br />
How Eagle Green Care works<br />
Eagle Green Care contains polysulphides which react with<br />
enzymes in animal cells and have a potent effect against<br />
insect eggs and plant parasitic nematodes. It kills all types of<br />
nematodes on contact.<br />
It is recommended that Eagle Green Care is drenched into<br />
the surface of grass where nematode-induced damage is<br />
apparent, or nematode populations in soil exceed<br />
thresholds.<br />
