1. A method of treating soils to eradicate or reduce the number and/or proliferation of plant parasitic nematodes, said method comprising applying a nematicide comprising a nematicide active to the soil to be treated, said nematicide active comprising i) at least one antimicrobial metal ion or ion s
1. A method of treating soils to eradicate or reduce the number and/or proliferation of plant parasitic nematodes, said method comprising applying a nematicide comprising a nematicide active to the soil to be treated, said nematicide active comprising i) at least one antimicrobial metal ion or ion source which releases the antimicrobial metal ion in the presence of an acidic solution and ii) at least one organic acid, and optionally, iii) at least one surfactant which a) enhances penetration of the nematicide actives into the soil, b) enhances the bioefficacy of the nematicide actives as compared to the same nematicide actives without the surfactant, or c) both or d) a combination of such surfactants, wherein the at least one acid is present in an amount of at least 20 weight percent based on the combined weight of the acid and metal ion source and the mole ratio of acid to metal ion is at least 0.3:1, said nematicide having a pH of from about 1.5 to about 12; provided that when the nematicide is to be applied to soils in which planting has already taken place, the pH is from about 5 about 12, or the acid is sufficiently weak as not to cause phytotoxicity, wherein the nematicide does not comprise additional nematicidally active ingredients in a nematicidally effective amount. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the antimicrobial metal ion is selected from silver ions, copper ions, zinc ions, a combination of copper and zinc ions, a combination of copper and silver ions, a combination of silver and zinc ions, a combination of copper, silver and zinc ions, and a combination of any of the foregoing and at least one other antimicrobial metal ions. 3. The meth ad of claim 1 herein the acid is a carboxylic acid. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the acid is present in an amount of from about 40 to about 80 percent by weight based on the combined weight of the acid and metal ion source. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide comprises up to about 20 weight percent acid and 10,000 ppm or less of the metal ions. 6. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide comprises from about 0.01% to about 10% of the acid, from about 1 ppm to about 1500 ppm in the case of a single antimicrobial metal ion or from 2 ppm to 3000 ppm in the case of multiple antimicrobial metal ions and, optionally, from about 0.001 to about 3 percent of the surfactant (iii). 7. The method of claim 1 wherein the metal ion is present at a concentration of from about 1 ppm to about 500 ppm in the case of a single metal ion and from about 2 to about 1000 in the case of multiple metal ions and the mole ratio of acid to metal is at least 2:1 and, optionally, from about 0.001 to about 3 percent of the surfactant (iii). 8. The method of claim 1 wherein the metal ion is present at a concentration of from about 5 ppm to about 50 ppm in the case of a single metal ion and from about 5 ppm to about 150 ppm in the case of multiple metal ions and the mole ratio of acid to metal is at least 2:1 and, optionally, from about 0.001 to about 3 percent of the surfactant (iii). 9. The method of claim 1 wherein the metal ion is at least in part derived from one or more carboxylic acid salts. 10. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide composition includes at least one surfactant that aids in the movement of the active components of the nematicide through the soil, at least one surfactant that enhances the performance of the active components, a combination of surfactants at least one of which aids in the movement of the active components of the nematicide through the soil and the other of which enhances the performance of the active components, or at least one surfactant that aids in the movement of the active components of the nematicide through the soil and enhances the performance of the active components. 11. The method of claim 10 wherein a combination of two or more surfactants is employed, each surfactant independently an anionic surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant or an amphoteric surfactant. 12. The method of claim 10 wherein the surfactants are selected from the group consisting of sulfonates, sulfates, sulfosuccinates, sarcosinates, mono- and di-glycerides, amine oxides, ether carboxylates, betaines, suflobetaines, and glycinates. 13. The method of claim 10 wherein the surfactants are selected from the group consisting of sulfonates, sulfates, sulfosuccinates, sarcosinates, and amine oxides. 14. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide is applied as an aqueous or aqueous-based solution, suspension or emulsion. 15. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide is applied as a solid in the form of a powder or dust comprising the nematicide actives incorporated into a suitable carrier material or in the form of solid carrier particles which have been treated with a solution of the nematicide actives or a concentrate thereof. 16. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide further comprises one or more antiwetting additives, dispersing agents, dyes, surfactants which cause the nematicide to run off the foliage, adjuvants, or stabilizers. 17. The method of claim 1 wherein the nematicide is applied to the soil at a rate whereby the amount of metal ions being applied is about 10,000 grams or less per acre. 18. The method of claim 1 wherein nematicide is applied to the soil at a rate whereby the amount of metal ions being applied is from about 1 gram to about 1000 grams per acre. 19. The method of claim 1 wherein nematicide is applied to the soil at a rate whereby the amount of metal ions being applied is from about 5 grams to about 500 grams per acre. 20. The method of claim 1 wherein the antimicrobial metal ion is selected from silver, copper, zinc, mercury, tin, gold, lead, iron, bismuth, cadmium, chromium and thallium ions or combinations of any two or more of the foregoing.
