when switching to nemo, did you remove the other file manager?

And then after removing the other filemanager/if not already removed, you can set up Nemo to handle the desktop completely with the following commands

xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory
application/x-gnome-saved-search

then

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false

gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true

The first command disables the handling of desktop by Nautilus and the second one enables Nemo to take its place.
