Insect parasitic nematodes are small, round worms that complete part of their life cycle in insects. Several species can kill insects in this process, and some are marketed as a biological control agent.
The use of insect parasitic nematodes to control soil insects, including many turfgrass and Garden pests, has received increased attention in recent years. insect parasitic nematodes are also know as predator nematodes, beneficial nematodes or entomogenous nematodes. They are sold under such trade names as BioSafe, BioVector, Scanmask, Exhibit, Oti-Nem, and Guardian.

Nematode is the 2nd most abundant multi-cellular organisms in the world. Most of the known species are saprophytic and play a very important role in the ecological system. Some of them are pathogenic to plants, animals, or insect.

A small, multi-cellular organism that eats and shits out of both it’s mouth and it’s anus. Thus “nematode” is an insult for a person who is profoundly idiotic; a person that a) everything that comes out of their mouth is utter bullshit or b) talks out their ass or c) both.
You’re gonna wave the flag of the losing side of a treasonous war and call it patriotic? That’s pretty fucking stupid, you nematode headass.
