Slug & vine weevil nematodes

I was wondering, would slug nematodes work on vine weevil grubs as well (if used in pots), rather than buying two lots of nematodes for each pest - saving money!

    No such luck - the nematodes are specific to their 'prey'.

    Yes unlike a some of the  chemical treatments sold for a variety of ailments but all containing essentially the same active ingredient. Biological controls are specific to their target, for once it's not a marketing ploy.
