D-20 – Packaged as Household Insecticide, Pet Product, Commercial Insecticide, and Fire Ant Product (Has 0.02 percent Pyrethrum) D-21 – Packaged as Garden and Plant Product and Farm and Field Product. (Has 0.01 % Pyrethrum) The reason for the different packaging is that the Federal Government (the EPA and the FDA) requires that “insecticides” are packaged and labeled with warnings and identifying all surfaces that it can be used on as well as what insects it can kill – regardless of whether or not those products are actually toxic or not. This is a nuisance to manufacturers but a huge revenue generator for the government. The fact is that we don’t know of ANY insects that cannot be killed by our products. The other problem is that the government is extremely reluctant to call our products “safe” even though their own tests revealed no negative reactions at any quantities tested. If they admitted that our insecticides were “safe” or “harmless”, they would lose over $30,000 in registration fees from our products every year. The fact is that all of our products are 100% non-toxic and are derived from natural sources. We know of NO reports of any harm being done to plants, birds, or warm-blooded animals – Including pets and small children!  Our products do not use strong poisons or experimental chemicals to kill insects, they kill “mechanically”. They cut, and puncture the insects exoskeleton and drain their vital fluid. Because of this, we have never heard of any insects being able to develop immunity to our products as they do to chemical insecticides. In fact, insects are developing immunity to traditional insecticides at an alarming rate today. Because our products kill mechanically, we believe that our products are the best and surest option for killing insects.  Here are some of the uses found for our products:  D-10 – As a feed additive for livestock, birds, pets, and humans (reported to be beneficial in eliminating parasites from the intestinal tract, and adds 14 trace minerals to the system, reduce odors, remove harmful bacteria from the upper intestinal tract, reduce fly hatch, and stop animals from licking holes and chewing fence posts).
