DIATOMACEOUS EARTH (DE) A natural pesticide that will drive away a number of pests, such as ants, cockroaches, and beetles from your lawn, garden, orchard, and household and is perfect for tick and flea control as well. Easy to apply and long lasting. So safe, it is recommended by the USDA as a grain additive for insect control. 
How it Works
Diatomaceous Earth is composed of diatoms, which are tiny fossilized shells of marine plants. Over time, these algae-like plants form a naturally occurring siliceous compound, containing minerals such as silicon, calcium, sodium, magnesium, and iron. When ground up, these diatoms have the look and feel of talcum powder. However, to insects, this powder has razor sharp edges that cuts through the protective covering and enters the body. Ultimately, it works by dehydration. The diatom is composed mostly of air, making it ideal for liquid absorption. When it enters the insect, Diatomaceous Earth quickly absorbs body fluids. Diatomaceous Earth is the perfect answer for safe insect control. Household: Sprinkle on counters, under cabinets, under foundation, and wherever your pet sleeps. 
Gardens: Coat plants and surrounding soil; apply directly to anthills and other nests. 
Pets: Dust on coats and rub in. Will not harm pets licking their fur. Perfect flea control for winter. 
Grain Storage: Add 2% Diatomaceous Earth by weight. Safe for human consumption. One application last the life of food storage. Safe for children and pets! Will not harm earthworms!   1 lb. Quantity>$3.00

THATCH AWAY is a specially formulated 100% organic liquid concentrate containing millions of active microorganisms that breakdown thatch into particles that plant roots can more readily absorb.

Application: 
For best results, directly apply Thatch Away liquid on grass or mulch into the soil of areas where thatch is most prevalent. One quart can treat 2,500 square feet.

MILKY SPORE POWDER The Japanese beetle and its larvae can be a widespread threat to the health of your garden. At all stages of life this Asiatic beetle can attack, feeding off of your plants and 
damaging the roots and leaves. Can be safely applied without hurting plants or other organisms in your garden. It is naturally selective, harming only Japanese beetle larvae. Milky Spore is one of the best beetle controlling agents available on the market today. One treatment can continue working for 5, 10, even 20 years. Works by attacking the larvae stage of the Japanese beetle known as grubs. Once treated, the plant roots absorb the spores which these grubs then eat, ingesting a natural occurring bacterium known as Bacillus popilliae. The bacteria are lethal only to Japanese beetle grubs, and cause the grub to die. Its color changes to a milky white during the process, thus the name Milky Spore. These grubs then decay and release billions of bacteria spores back into the soil, restarting the entire process.
Application: 
For best results, sprinkle Milky Spore insect dust directly onto the plants and root soil around the base of the plant stem. 10 ounces covers 2500 square feet and can work up to 20 years with only one application. Milky Spore can be applied spring, summer and fall and doesn't harm earthworms, birds, bees, fish, other animals, or plants. Because larvae are needed to complete the bacterium cycle, don’t use any other Japanese beetle insecticides as they can kill the grubs before the spores have ample time to reproduce. 

Milky Spore 1 oz. Quantity>$4.00 or 10 oz. Quantity>$35.60

COMPOST AID is a compost accelerator that contains enzymes capable of speeding up the breakdown process of organic materials. It also detoxifies compost, making for a more enriched finished product.

SEA GROW PLUS is an excellent liquid fertilizer for your foliar, transplanting, and rooting needs. It improves the health and yield of your garden and house plants. It also is great for growing roses, as it intensifies the color.
How it Works
Sea Grow Plus is a blend of extracts from natural ocean kelp and fish emulsion. Its ratio of organic nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (N-P-K) is 2-1-2. Sea Grow Plus is highly 
recommended as a foliar nutrient spray, which is an extremely efficient method of providing nutrients directly to the plant. This liquid fertilizer may also be applied directly to the soil. 
Apply at the rate of 1 tablespoon to each gallon of water making certain to mist all sides of leaf surfaces. Apply a minimum of 3 times during the growing season: 1) when plants are first leafing out, 2) when buds are setting, 3) three weeks after buds set. For best results, spray in the early part of the day when evaporation rate is slowest.
Soil application: Apply to soil monthly at the rate of 2 tablespoons to each gallon of water. For large areas, apply 8 ounces to each 1,000 square feet.
Foliar application for potted plants: Apply at the rate of 1 teaspoon Sea Grow Plus to 1 quart of water and mist plants well. May apply weekly or semi-weekly as plants require.

Mosquito Barrier

Mosquito Repellent | Flea & Tick Repellent | Natural Mosquito Control
"A garlic-based natural mosquito repellent and tick repellent for effective mosquito control. "
America's Only Mosquito, Tick And Flea Repellent For Grassy Areas, Yards & Parks. Just one 
spraying will keep mosquitoes, ticks and fleas out of your yard and away from your home, 24 hours 
a day for nearly a month. Being used right now by City Governments for parks, golf courses and 
school grounds - because it works 
Mosquito Barrier is a very strong liquid garlic made from very potent garlic cloves. The garlic used 
in Mosquito Barrier is a very powerful variety which is much more potent than the garlic found in grocery stores. Garlic has a natural sulfur which repels insects, including mosquitoes, ticks and fleas.  Since mosquitoes are soft-bodied  insects the garlic juice can be very toxic to them in increased concentrations. The juice does not harm humans or pets or plants, but to mosquitoes it can be deadly. The odor of it chases them out of the area and they stay away - for as long as they can detect the odor. While the odor of sprayed garlic juice becomes undetectable to humans within minutes, the mosquitoes will still detect it. Mosquitoes have extremely sensitive odor sensing antennae - as high as 10,000 times better than humans. They can detect the garlic extract for much longer periods of time and will stay away from the sprayed area for up to a month and more. If the mosquitoes aren't in your yard, they can't get into your house.

Additionally, Mosquito Barrier, when mixed with soybean oil (available at your local grocery store) plus the water, coats any standing water in the area with a very thin film of natural oil, including some garlic oil. This oil suffocates the mosquito larvae which are developing. Mosquito Barrier, unlike chemicals, doesn't kill the bees, butterflies or birds. Generally, four applications are enough for the entire mosquito and tick season for the average sized home and a Twin-Pak (two quarts) of Mosquito Barrier are all that are normally required.

Don't use chemical sprays to kill bugs in your home. Decrease the number of insects getting into your home by repairing holes in screens and doors and destroying nests of vermin in your yard. Powdered boric acid mixed with a bit of sugar can become an effective and less dangerous ant and roach control.

Choose organic fruits and vegetables. If organic is not an option, ask for produce that is locally grown it will thereby be treated with fewer chemicals to help it survive transport to market. Many other countries don't have restrictions on pesticides Shop at farmer's markets and food co-ops, try to buy produce grown in the U.S., the supermarket usually notes the origins on the price cards.

Practice organic gardening. Avoid chemical lawn services; plant native plants that do well in your region without a lot of chemical intervention, and increase your tolerance for weeds and bugs just a little bit!

Synthetic pesticides are more of a threat to man than the insects. As each generation of insects become more immune, stronger and more potent chemicals are developed. Meanwhile we are absorbing these chemicals as they permeate our homes, gardens and lawns. We are also depleting the quality of our lives and poisoning the world around us. We hope that most American gardeners will help reverse this trend by utilizing natural pest deterrents that have been successful for generations.

TROPICALS
INDOOR PLANTS absorb air pollutants through their leaves and roots and convert them into cleaner air. The following plants can significantly reduce the amount of indoor pollution in your home. They trap and filter out harmful chemical agents and smoke particles. Even the air in a new home in the country can be polluted from the chemical vapors released from the carpet, plywood and other materials. Within 24 hours, some plants can remove up to 87 percent of toxic indoor air. Depending on the specie, one plant can provide effective cleaning for every 100 square feet of space. Plants work equally well in homes, offices, and factories, as long as their requirements for light, water, nutrients and soil types are met. Try placing them outdoors in Northern climates for the Summer! We try to provide varieties that are easy to care for.
