I understand, Juanse.  Non problemo.

The link below is a very interesting article on using nematodes for
biological control. Of note to list members might be the fact that they can
be used to control small hive beetle, and they do not affect bees or
beekeepers.  The reference to small hive beetle (and the types of nematodes
that are toxic to them) is near the end of the article.

Another article (the link below) is about a type of nematode that is very
infective to greater wax moth and among other pests, fire ants.
