Melon Nematodes Against Cockchafer Grubs
Beneficial insects against cockchafers
Melonem is the targeted, biological solution for combating cockchafer larvae (grubs), which live in the soil for several years and cause extensive damage to lawns, fruit trees, and ornamental trees through intensive root feeding.
The combination of two nematode species (Heterorhabditis bacteriophora and Steinernema carpocapsae) ensures particularly effective control. The nematodes actively search for the larvae in the soil, penetrate them, and halt their development. The earlier the application, the better the effect.
Melonem is an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution that does not endanger beneficial organisms or pets and simultaneously maintains the natural balance in the soil.

With over 25 own subsidiaries, integrated production facilities, and more than 600 employees worldwide, the Andermatt Group combines in-depth expertise, research, production, and consulting under one roof. A strong consulting team provides practical support to customers – focusing on effective, sustainable solutions instead of sales pressure.
