Worm Cast Control
Worms are great for the lawn but in the autumn through to the spring months their casts cause a really big problem on the lawns surface making it muddy, bumpy, wet and uneven. Worm Cast control products have not been available to domestic lawn owners until now.
The worms are at the moment drowning with all the wet weather but as soon as it dries out a little your lawns will be covered in worm casts.
CastClear is the solution to lawn worm casts. CastClear is a NEW organic and unique combination of nutrient materials that have been clearly shown to reduce worm-cast levels on lawns large and small.
It's the solution to lawn worm cast problems and has been selling in Garden Centres since the autumn of 2011.
It's a lawn worm suppressant and a deterrent. It's proven in control on both lawns and sports turf.
It is unique in using a surfactant system that moves the nutrient into the upper soil structure and fixes it there providing good persistence of deterrent effect until breaking down to natural nutrients absorbed by plant roots.
As the soil air to water ratio changes in the more traditional autumn months, you will notice an increase in worm cast activity. The wetter the autumn or winter, the greater the worm activity will be. The root zone of the lawn will become spongy as the worms undermine the upper surface and mowing will become difficult, especially with a cylinder mower. The use of the lawn will diminish as a result of the difficult surface conditions.
It is not the activity of the worms naturally aerating the soil beneath the grass surface, but the detrimental effect of their soil casts that cause the problems. The soil making up the casts is very slimy as it consists of soil and the natural secretions from the worm’s digestive system. Left on the surface of the lawn, the casts will be smeared across the grass through the actions of mowing and walking on the lawn.
