Content: In case the nematicides are naular, you can enhance their effect by manually inserting them deeper in the soil. A rainfall would also help but if the insecticide has been sprayed as a liquid. Non-fumigant Nematicides
Non-fumigant nematicides have low volatility and diffuse through the soil (generally for short distances only) dissolved in the soil solution. Their movement may be enhanced by water movement through irrigation or rainfall. If in granular formulations, their distribution may be enhanced by physical incorporation into the soil. Side Effects of Nematicides
Groundwater contamination with toxins
Exposure to chemicals
People who use machinery for insecticide application are at higher risk. Delayed harvest
Specific minimum time for residual effect to fade away is required which may postpone harvest. Pesticide poisoning
HIgher levels of mortality occur when certain regulations for usage are not followed. Rodenticides
