Vengence is most satisfying . Squashing them between finger and thumb. 😃

Thankyou Kris really look forward to your weekly show first year of trying to grow tropicals and your my plant saver 👍👍

I've noticed in pots of mixed succulents they will often target specific plants, leaving others alone. They go crazy for the larger types of sedum like sedum palmeri, but generally leave smaller sedums alone.

Haven't got any myself. But I have seen a good few posts on Facebook groups on the subject. So thanks for addressing this issue. At least I know what to do, if I get any of those little critters in the future.

Interesting video Kris Cheers. Loved the fleeting view of the mediopicta agave. My favourite of the agaves americanas👍

I lost 4 heuchera in my outside flower bed, pulled the remaining sickly one to investigate and sure enough vine weevils..or as I like to call them vine evils were present and had eaten all the fiberous roots and most of the bigger ones. I thought they only attacked pots. Nematodes ordered. I have some stuggling cacti and succulents in my unheated polytunnel, had put it down to cold but now I'm thinking it could be these too.

Hi kris, is this the same as what you use for slugs or are they totally different. I'm after the slug one, but can't find where it was on a recent vid you done.

[@YorkshireKRIS]

The slug one is a different nematode. There's a few available.

They love members of the crucifer family and Camellia/Rhododendrons. Kris what's your experience phyllostachys bisetti does it run like Sasa or is it more well behaved.? Thank you/

[@ben.3]
