Organic Products

Why should we use organics? Here are just a few compelling reasons:

To avoid pesticides which can make you, your family, pets and wildlife sick

Prevent runoff water from carrying chemicals into the ground water and contaminate our drinking water

Applications of pesticides kill the beneficial insects as well as the harmful ones

Up to 20% of the chemicals you buy legally include heavy metals-toxic wastes, which include lead, dioxin and arsenic, that would otherwise be subject to rigorous hazardous waste disposal laws as fillers

Organics rebuild healthy populations of microbes in the soil promoting improved plant and turf health due to better soil conditions

And remember, more is NOT BETTER! Apply per directions/application rates see below

"This we know - the Earth does not belong to man - man belongs to the Earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected.

Whatever befalls the Earth - befalls the sons of the Earth. Man did not weave the web of life - he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself." ~ Ted Perry, Screenwriter for Home, a 1972 film about ecology, inspired by the words of Chief Seattle
