An organic pesticide will keep your garden chemical free!Organic Pesticides, also known as Bio-Insecticides, are are made from plant oil extracts. Based on my research and experience, I choose to use EcoSMART products around my home and in the garden. They are approved for use by the NOP, National Organic Program.
What is the ‘active’ ingredient, how does it work? Eco Smart products have a unique mode of action that targets and blocks a key neurotransmitter receptor site called ‘Octopamine, which is found in all invertebrates, but NOT mammals! (That is why it is safe for you, your children and your pets!) Octopamine regulates an insects heart rate, movement and metabolism. Interrupting the function of Octopamine results in a total breakdown of the insects nervous system. These products also have a dual action mode with the synergized pyrethrin and plant oils active ingredient. Not only is it an Octopamine blocker, but the pyrethrin also acts as a nerve toxin in insects only. Where can these products be used? Eco Smart works in virtually every type of area and circumstance, both indoors and out, since they are comparable to conventional pesticides in terms of efficacy, but with the safety benefits of botanical products. So, whether it is a hospital or health care facility, a nursery or day care. School or learning center, we got you covered. Since it is not a chemical it can be used with USDA Certified Growers and Producers and even food processing facilities. Why Eco Smart? There are a couple of reasons why I recommend this manufacturer and their products. The first obviously is that they work. (and I really love the fragrance!) But in comparison to other products that are on the market, Eco Smart has figured out something so unique they have a patent on it, and that’s this. They use a synergized blend of plant oils instead of just one! This increases the insecticidal activity of the plants oils tremendously. So much so that it makes it very cost competitive in comparison to synthetic chemicals. You and I may care about our health and the environment, but the majority I fear, just want something cheap to kill the ants, spiders, roaches, termites, etc. By having a ecological product available that is affordable, we have a greater chance of keeping more of these toxic chemicals out of our environment!
Can you believe it? America alone uses over one hundred and twenty five million pounds of synthetic chemicals on lawns and gardens each year in America. These pose significant and well documented risks to every living creature in the exposed area. Why invest money on chemicals when there are natural products that provide instant knock down and provide long term residual effects. Is it really worth the risk to your children or your pets health? It's not for me! Safe for You, Your Children & Your Pets |
