Vine weevil soak

I read in the paper about this vine weevil soak stuff. You have to soak the compost in the tubs/pots with the stuff to kill the little devils. My pots have them I think. Does anyone use this ? Or know where best place to get it is....I know garden centres may have it, but they are usually more expensive, so I was wondering about Wilkinsons or somewhere like it????

Any thoughts or alternative ideas please

In fact you can take your pick from lots of different 'remedies'

I just ordered some Nemasys yesterday from Amazon, £8.75 (free pp) which is enough for 160 pots (depending on size of pot, of course). I've only found the little bu...ers is one pot so far, but I guess there will be more. It had very good reviews so I'm hoping it will work. The soil in the pots needs to be warm I believe, so will have to wait for the sun to come out again!
