This week I’m going to continue writing about “green”
products that have been getting very positive reviews. If you missed part one
of this article, you can go to www.possumsupply.com
and look under the Horticulture Hotline tab and the article should be there.
Last week, I ended with Essentria G. Essentria G controls
many of our Lowcountry pests.
Ants,
Bermuda grass mites, centipedes, chiggers, chinch bugs, clover mites,
cockroaches, crickets, earwigs, fall armyworms, fire ants, fleas, leafhoppers,
millipedes, sowbugs / pillbugs and other insect pests. As you can see,
Essentria G controls several of our problem insects. With no aquatic setbacks,
this is a good tool to have in the tool box especially when controlling fire
ants near a pond’s edge.
Rockwell
Labs has a tagline of “creating the future of pest control”, and that is what
their scientists are doing every day. At Possum’s we have heard many success
stories from professionals to do it yourself homeowners about the effectiveness
of the Rockwell line of products. Rockwell also packages their products so you
can buy enough for one house or for one apartment complex.
InVict Gold
Cockroach Gel is a LEED Tier 3 product. I helped a lady whose elderly father
was about to be carried out the house by roaches. She had tried all kinds of
other products that she had purchased elsewhere and nothing worked for her. She
had roaches everywhere. She tried the InVict Gold, and their roach problem was
quickly under control. She came back to the store just to thank us!
InTice 10
Bait is a LEED Tier 3 product that is N.O.P. (National Organic Program)
Compliant. InTice 10 can be used indoors, outdoors and on turf. InTice 10 kills
roaches, crickets, mole crickets, sowbugs, pillbugs, silverfish, millipedes,
and some ants. InTice 10 is a mold and moisture resistant ready-to-use Orthoboric
(boric acid) Acid Bait. InTice 10 lasts up to 90 days outdoors in the weather.
The bait matrix contains a highly effective blend of attractants. With all the
fishing in the Lowcountry, we all know how important a good bait is.
The last few
Thanksgivings I get a call from a friend that tells me the drain flies are
about to take off with his Thanksgiving turkey. InVade BioDrain takes care of
the situation. A combination of citrus oil and microbes eats up the scum in the
drains that the drain flies feed on and nest. I have several friends that use
it in their kitchen sink because they like the citrus smell.

small seeded summer annual weeds now!
