ORGANIC PRODUCTS:
We sell only organic products that we personally use on our property.
CODEX FOOD GRADE DIATOMACEOUS EARTH Great for internal and external parasite control. Contains 15 trace minerals that are excellent for soil. Reported to kill 75% of flies and fleas that come in contact with it within 72 hrs. Mixed with grains at a ratio of 2% keeps out pests. Great for eliminating ants, aphids, flea beetles, fleas, earwigs, sowbugs, mites, etc. We use it diluted in water and painted on tree trunks to keep ants off our fruit trees. Can be applied as a foliar spray or sprayed in buildings or just lightly sprinkled in pest infested areas or compost/manure piles. DE is a drying agent, and thus reduces odor and moisture in barns and stalls. Fed to animals daily, it keeps fly larvae from developing in manure, noticeably reducing the fly population. It is also great to sprinkle on compost piles and manures. DE will also kill beneficial insects, so be mindful of this when using.
CERTIFIED ORGANIC THORVIN KELP
is terrific for use as a soil amendment. It contains many vital minerals and
nutrients necessary for plant growth, so can be applied directly to the soil or
soaked and applied as a foliar spray. Fabulous in the garden to increase crop
yields, drought resistance, frost protection, and stress recovery.
