Jumping Worm Control

The first all-natural bioinsecticide formulated specifically for invasive Amynthas jumping worms — delivering 100% efficacy within 24 hours using geraniol and proprietary saponins in a nano-emulsion technology platform.

Vegalab Jumping Worm Control
Plant-based; non-synthetic and environmentally compatible

Jumping Worm Control is a plant-based bioinsecticide purpose-formulated to combat invasive jumping worms (Amynthas spp.) — a rapidly spreading soil pest that devastates soil structure and plant root zones across North American cropland and gardens. The formula combines geraniol with proprietary saponins and bio-surfactants, delivered in a nano-emulsion that works on contact to disrupt the worm's protective cuticle. In controlled testing, 100% efficacy was achieved within 24 hours. Built-in surfactant properties improve distribution and reduce the overall pesticide volume required.

Key benefits
  • 100% efficacy in 24 hours demonstrated during controlled testing.
  • Targets invasive Amynthas jumping worms — a species not controlled by conventional pesticides.
  • Works on contact by disrupting the worm's protective cuticle.
  • Nano-emulsion technology improves distribution and consistency of coverage.
  • Non-synthetic and environmentally compatible; no harmful soil residues.
  • Also effective against slugs, mole crickets, and ants.
