Application is simple but does depend on getting the conditions right. Nematodes are typically mixed with water and applied with a watering can or hose-end feeder directly onto moist soil, since they need moisture to move through it and reach their target. Soil temperature also matters: most products need the soil to be above a minimum threshold, often around 5°C, to remain effective.

Birds need consistent feeding through frosty spells, when natural food sources are hardest to find and energy demands are highest. Keeping feeders topped up, and providing water that is not frozen over, matters more in a hard frost than at almost any other point in the year; a small area gently melted with warm water is a better approach than breaking ice by force.

Easy access matters most. A shallow, gently sloping edge lets amphibians move in and out of the water without difficulty, while steep, hard-edged ponds can be surprisingly difficult for them to use. Nearby damp, shady spots, a log pile or a compost heap close to the pond, give them somewhere to shelter and hibernate once they leave the water for the colder months.

Plant choice shapes how much a garden offers wildlife gardening supplies at Garden Wildlife across the year, and it is about more than flowers alone. Shape, structure, timing and what a plant offers after flowering, whether berries, seed heads or dense cover, all matter as much as bloom colour.

Different nematode species target different problems. Some are used against slugs, others against vine weevil grubs feeding on plant roots in containers and borders, and others against chafer grubs or leatherjackets damaging lawns. Because they are pest-specific, the right choice depends on identifying which pest is actually causing the damage.

Sited well and left in peace, an insect house can become a genuinely busy part of the garden. Many gardeners start by comparing a few insect houses before choosing one to match the space available.
