Natural Biofertilizer and Pesticide

Green Houston's Mixed Insect Frass contains high concentrations of beneficial microbial life and chitin. Our insect Frass has an average of 35% raw chitin per volume and is derived from 13 different insect species giving it a very unique and board gut microbial load. The presence of chitin in the insect frass signals plants to protect themselves from an insect attack, leading to increased resistance to pests and disease. It has an inherent beneficial Trichoderma fungi present in the Frass and as a stand alone product works well with any nutrient program as an additive.
