    Description

    Insect frass, or poop, is well-known to be one of the best things to give your plants. Our frass comes directly from the Superworms we raise and has the the same qualities of other frass including mealworm frass. Insect frass naturally contains the nutrition plants require, beneficial micro-organisms, and the only immediately plant-available source of chitin (pronounced “Kite-in”). Chitin fortifies a plant from the inside out, causing an "auto-immune" response that signals a plant to produce natural toxins which fend off its natural enemies like pests and fungal pathogens. The EPA says that chitin and chitosan defend against botrytis (grey mold), powdery mildew, early and late blight, fungal pathogens in the root zone (root rot) and root-feeding nematodes. Contains small particles of superworm castings, or shed skin, that cannot be filtered out, but this will only increase the amount of chitin within the fertilizer. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to help.
