This safe and non-toxic ready-to-use spray provides effective protection for edible and ornamental...This safe and non-toxic ready-to-use spray provides effective protection for edible and ornamental plants from pests such as rabbits and deer. Used successfully by farmers since 1999, Grazers G1 is absorbed by plants, strengthening and stimulating growth. Based around the plant nutrient calcium, it protects plants when applied to leaves and stems while keeping pests at bay. The unique formula works naturally with plant leaves to mask attractiveness and additionally strengthens and stimulates plant growth to make plants more resilient. It is people, pets, pests, and wildlife friendly, protecting pollinators. The ready-to-use sprayer has an upside-down trigger to get under leaves. When applied to green photosynthesizing leaves and stems, the calcium-based Grazers products work by creating a ‘plant-mediated effect’ that dissuades the pests from eating these plants. The indigenous pests then seek other nearby food sources instead and so leave our plants to thrive, helped in their growth by the calcium nutrient in the products.
