Neat, Useful Items & Garden Fun

Diatomaceous Earth

Diatomaceous Earth: The real thing, not the heat-treated swimming pool grade which doesn't work against insects and is also dangerous to inhale. Insects die after losing as little as 10% of their body moisture through microscopic scratches caused by the Diatomaceous Earth.

Use D.E. as a totally non-toxic pet flea powder, too!

Dustin-Mizer

Without a doubt, Dustin-Mizer is the slickest way to apply garden dusts like Diatomaceous Earth. The crank turns easily, and lays down a full, evenly distributed barrier under and around plants, garden structures or home foundations.

Nature's Control Tee-shirts!
These 100% Cotton Tees are a fun way to spread the Hired Bugs word: "Nature's Control is real control".

Tee Shirt Sizes: SM, MED, LG, X-LARGE, XX-LARGE

Sluggo
Sluggo is a truly organic compound used to control both slugs and snails. Its active ingredient is iron phosphate, an organic compound that breaks down into fertilizer. Unlike common metaldehyde baits, which are quite toxic to animals, Sluggo can be used around pets and wildlife without adverse effects. It also remains effective even after rainfall or irrigation. Sluggo is also approved for use on fruit or vegetable gardens at all times, right up to harvest. (Metaldehyde products can only be used until fruit begins to form on plants.) Any Sluggo not eaten by slugs or snails biodegrades back into the soil as iron & phosphate fertilizer.

Sluggo is attractive to snails and slugs and lures them from their hiding places. Once eaten by the snail or slug, they stop eating and die within 3-6 days. Unlike metaldehyde, dead snails may not be visible since they crawl away to hide and die. Sluggo is slower acting than metaldehyde, but once eaten, the snails and slugs stop feeding so damage to the plants stops immediately.

Use 1 lb. of Sluggo per 1,000 square feet (1 teaspoon per square yard). Re-apply as bait is consumed.

16X Magnifier
Find out what's eating your plants and watch your Hired Bugs actually feeding and mating! Common 3x single-lens magnifiers are simply not powerful enough, while 30x magnifying scopes have too small a viewing area, so that the insects crawl away before you can focus on them. Our chrome plated, pocket-sized 16x Magnifier folds up to protect the lens and fit in your pocket so it's handy wherever your garden grows.

Sticky Yellow Traps
Hang these Sticky Yellow Traps around your growing area to catch Whiteflies, adult Fungus Gnats as well as many other garden pests. They're not only very effective, they're a great early warning system. Pests are much easier to spot against the yellow than on your plants. Place the traps about 3 feet apart within or just above plant foliage.

Sticky Blue Traps
Similar to the original Yellow Traps, but work on insects that are attracted to the blue portion of the color spectrum. Customers report success using Sticky Blue Traps against Thrips & Leafminers. Especially recommended for use on roses.

Beneficial Insect Food
Many beneficial insects, including ladybugs and green lacewings, appreciate the pollen & nectar substitutes found in our Beneficial Insect Food. (Of course, that's in addition to the protein sources they get by eating your insect pests!)

Mix with water and spray wherever you'd like beneficial insects to hang out. Give them the food they love, so they won't go looking for it at the neighbors!

MightyMyco Mycorrhizal Soil Inoculant for Fast Plant Growth
MightyMyco adds essential soil mycorrhizal complex which are often lacking, for healthy roots and fast plant growth. Acts as a root biostimulant, reduces transplant shock, and enhances disease resistance.

Granular Mix contains 8 species of premium mycorrhizal fungai, and is mixed into the soil at the rate of 1-3 tablespoons per transplant, or 10# per cubic yard. Root Dip Gel contains 12 species, and mixes with water to form a root-dip slurry. 4 oz. treats 10-250 plants, depending on size of root mass.

Handy Hint: Weeds and vegetation around greenhouses can easily harbor pests. Keep all vegetation trimmed back from doorways and eliminate weeds.
