Pest Control
The Organic Way
Integrated Pest Management
Aphids getting you down? Got the Powdery Mildew blues? Take courage! Achieving organic
control of pests IS possible!
It is well known within the sustainability movement that an integrated approach to pest control
is the best way to go. Technically, the term is “Integrated Pest Management” (IPM), and it
basically means applying several well-considered methods of control to address a pest problem.
IPM requires conscientious observation, knowledge of pest life cycles, tolerance for minimal
damage, and patience.
Pest Control - An Integrated Approach
Here are the tools and information you need to take that balanced approach to pest control.
First Identify!
Introduce Beneficial Insects as predators to help control your particular pest.
Use Repellents and Traps that can keep those “critters” out of your garden.
Lures, Traps and Barriers are great ways to hinder the damage of pesky and voracious insects!
Finally, as the last resort, you can use Natural Insecticides combined with other controls for a
long-term solution to your pest problem.
NEW! Peaceful Valley now has Beekeeping supplies.

Everything we carry can be used in an organic garden. If you’re a certified
organic farmer, we know it can be hard to find products listed by
certifying organizations, so we try our best to keep the following
information up to date throughout our catalog! Always check with your
certifying agency before making your final selection.
The National Organic Program
The Federal Organic Foods Production Act of 1990 standardized US
organic farming practices so consumers could expect consistent use of the
word organic. Certified organic farmers must follow NOP specifications
to determine which materials (fertilizers, pesticides, etc.) they can use.
When manufacturers give us a letter of compliance with the National
Organic Program, we mark the product with the Meets NOP logo.

Control pests in the most natural possible way.
Monitor & Identify Pests
Alter Pest’s Habitat
Cultural controls alter the environment so the pests can’t live easily
(removing shelter, adjusting watering times).
Release Natural Enemies
Biological controls are natural enemies (such as beneficial insects).
Create Barriers
Mechanical and physical controls are traps that kill pests, or barriers that
keep them away from plants (gopher wire, deer fencing, bird netting).
Use Natural Insecticides
Biochemical controls are pesticides. In IPM, pesticides are a last resort.
They are combined with other controls for a long-term solution to the
pest problem.

Identify & Monitor
The Organic Way
“On every stem, on every leaf,... and at the root of
everything that grew, was a professional specialist
in the shape of grub, caterpillar, aphis, or other
expert, whose business it was to devour that
particular part.”
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Aphids getting you down? Got the Powdery Mildew blues? Take
courage! Achieving organic control of pests IS possible! It is well
known within the sustainability movement that an integrated
approach to pest control is the best way to go. Technically, the term
is “Integrated Pest Management” (IPM), and it basically means
applying several well-considered methods of control to address a
pest problem. If you are new to organic growing, the big change
will be from the “silver bullet” approach (using one, highly potent
chemical to achieve total eradication), to a “systems” approach;
viewing a farm or garden (and its’ inhabitants) as a part of the
greater ecosystem. This kind of systems approach will expand your
view of how to address a problem to include cultural control (iephysical manipulation of the environment by pruning, placement of
plants, cleaning, etc.), biological control (ie-using natural enemies
including insect predators, disease, and parasites), and applying leastharmful pesticides derived from natural sources. IPM requires good
conscientious observation, knowledge of pest life cycles, tolerance for
minimal damage, and patience.
Identify Your Pest
Time to play detective. Where did the holes in your leafy green come
from? Before you blame the slugs, take time to observe. Soon you may
discover that the holes are coming from the birds. Knowing what pest
you’re trying to control will of course determine what methods you
use. Assuming your pest is not as obvious as a bird, you may need
to use a trap or head out to the garden at night with a flashlight to
identify your pests. Try reference cards, books or websites to help you
find the name of mysterious pests. Once you know your pest, you can
effectively alter the pest’s habitat or reproductive cycle.

Beneficial
Insects - Your Garden Allies
“When the mantis hunts the
locust, he forgets the shrike
that’s hunting him.”
Chinese Proverb
Natural Predators
Have aphids? Ladybug larva can eat as many as 1000 aphids in
a single day. This is a classic example of nature at work, creating
balance in your garden. In addition to ladybugs there are many other
organisms that can help in similar ways.
Beneficial organisms attack pests, not people, plants or pets. Tricia
reviews how easy it is to effectively use them in two videos: Beneficial
Insect - General Predators & Beneficial Insect - Parasitic Organisms.
Beneficials are not pesticides; they need some lead time to work. They
should be used as part of an integrated system of pest management
which also includes fertilizing, hygienic cultural practices, planting
pest-resistant varieties, intercropping, proper irrigation, monitoring,
trapping, etc. For maximum effectiveness, beneficial releases should
begin when pest densities are at low to medium levels.
If your pest problem is already severe, it may be better to apply a safe,
short-residual pesticide to kill a portion of the pests and then introduce
the beneficials. Use the chart on the following page to help determine
which beneficial insect or parasitic organism will fit your needs.
Once you’ve introduced a beneficial insect population, you want them
to stick around. Beneficial insects are a natural army of pest control
allies and it is important to provide them with suitable living conditions
if you expect their help. In addition to providing pests to eat, provide
pollen from a hedgerow. Watch Tricia’s video on How To Plant a
Hedgerow where she grows our Good Bug Blend (at right). In order to
reproduce, beneficial insects need nectar and pollen. If they do not find
these in your field (and they are very particular about which flowers
they want), they will leave and may not return.
We pioneered these seed mixes for beneficial insect habitat. We
designed our mix to include plants that are proven hosts to specific wild
as well as introduced beneficials, such as predatory mites and wasps,
ladybugs, lacewings, syrphids, tachnids, predacious beetles and more.

Good Bug Food
Good Bug Food is a food source for beneficial insects.
In their adult stage, these insects need pollen and
sugars, which are often not present in sufficient
quantities. Beneficial insects especially need additional
food during dry periods. Derived from Brewer’s yeast
and powdered milk, Good Bug Food can attract and
increase beneficial populations as much as tenfold.
Mix one part food with an equal part of honey or sugar, and make a paste. Paint this mixture
onto cardboard or wooden stakes and place in your garden or greenhouse.

What’s The Buzz?
Bees–Powerful
Pollinators
Bees are essential for pollination. Mason Bee colonies
can do over 200 times the pollinating of similarly
sized honeybee colonies. Unlike honeybees, Orchard
Mason Bees (Osmia ligneria) are small, black, gentle
bees. These native bees are excellent pollinators, it is
their primary purpose in life. Orchard Mason Bees
build their nests in holes in wood, not in hives for
producing honey. Native to most of the continental US, they are not social bees like honeybees, and will not bother humans or pets.
Keeping Bees In the wild, Mason Bees find holes in trees to nest in; they build their homes
using mud, hence the name Mason. To invite them to stay around your garden you only need
to have food for them (flower pollen) and a shelter for them to breed and live. The Nesting Kit
is the perfect home for Mason Bees. To learn more about the lives, history and propagation of
the Orchard Mason Bee, pick up Brian Griffin's book The Orchard Mason Bee. It covers all
those topics, plus building homes for the bees, bee predators, parasites and more.
Mason Bee Nesting Kit
Attract bees to your garden with our nesting kits that
provide exactly the right size holes the Orchard Bees are
seeking in early spring, in which to lay their eggs. Place the
nest kit in a sheltered, sunny spot facing East or South to
catch the morning sun. Under the eaves of a shed or garage
is an ideal location and be sure to avoid direct exposure to
rain. The mud filled tubes can be ruined if they get soaked.
Weatherproof housing molded from all-green materials (Rice
hulls and Bamboo). 6” cardboard nesting tubes are made
from Kraft paper, clear wrapped for moisture resistance. Both the tubes and housing are
made from eco-friendly biodegradable materials. Each Nest Kit comes with an informative
leaflet about Orchard Mason Bees.

mounted with pre-drilled holes in back.
Screws included. Bee Houses are included

Honey Bee Magnet Pheromone lure
to attract pollinating honey bees.
Easy, inexpensive and long-lasting method
for increasing your fruit set and yields on
your fruit trees, berries and vegetables. The
Honey Bee Magnet is a blend of selected
pheromones researchers have identified that
attract worker bees to potential food sources
(flowers). These are natural attractants often
found in fruit and vegetable flowers and are
non-toxic. Simply hang one lure per large
fruit tree or 200 sq ft in your garden at the
start of bloom, and the attractant will last
for two weeks (even if it rains). Continue
to replace lures until pollination activity
subsides in the garden.

Repel & Trap Keep Pests at Bay
“Man is the only kind of
varmint [who] sets his own
trap, baits it, then steps in it.”
John Steinbeck
Animal & Bird Control
Fence them out, repel them, or trap them. There’s nothing
more defeating than garlic consumed by a burrowing gopher,
strawberries pecked at by the birds, or a garden devoured by
deer! Our simple, yet effective fencing, repellents & traps will
keep your organic garden producing.
Start by identifying your intruder so you can create a physical
barrier that will be effective in keeping the creature out of your
garden or so you can select the most appropriate repellent or
trap, if necessary.
Your approach for rabbits and raccoons will be different than
gophers or mice. For help identifying who is burrowing or
making holes in your soil, see page 16.
When using repellents or scare tactics, we fi nd it’s best to vary
the method being used so that the deer, bird, or other animal
doesn’t adapt to a single method.
Good luck! If 7½’ tall fences and repellents won’t keep the deer
away, modify your landscape with the advice of Carolyn Singer’s
books “Deer in My Garden” below.

Deer Repellents
Deer are certainly persistent! Like all repellents, deer repellents are most effective if
spray applications are thorough and repeated as needed. New foliage may require
bi-weekly applications under severe pressure from deer. We have found that using
repellents in rotation is more effective than using only one product. If all else fails,
fencing is seen by many as the ultimate protection.
Deer Fencing
Use this discreet black plastic fence to
install either permanent or temporary
fencing for deer control. The fence is
7½' tall and comes in a 330' length.
The mesh is 2" × 2" square. Material
is ideal for outdoor use because it
is UV stabilized, rust and rot proof
and extremely strong. Easy to install,
lightweight and reusable. Designed to
last 7–10 years. Posts not included. You
can use zip-ties to attach to posts. Ships
via truck only.

The concept of the Solar Nite Eyes is
simple, but it WORKS! Predators believe
the flash to be the eye of a predator and
feel threatened, so they stay away. Units
are completely sealed, protecting against
moisture and are high/low temperature
resistant. Red flashing LED light
automatically turns on at dusk and off at
full daylight. When used properly SPP will work for 3 years, or longer if stored
inside when not in use. Protects against owls, coyotes, opossum, raccoons,
fox, bobcats, muskrats, bear, cougar, wild boar, mink, weasels and many more
nocturnal predators. Multiple unit locations are most effective. Use the Solar
Predator Protection for:
Livestock: to protect against coyote, fox, bear, mountain lion, wolf and bobcat.
Poultry: to protect against owls, hawks, raccoon, mink, weasel, fox, coyote, and
skunk.
Gardens, sweet corn, orchards, vineyards and flowers: to protect against

Gopher, Mole & Vole Control
Gophers make a horseshoe-shaped mound with their exit hole on one
side of the mound. Moles make a circular, volcano-shaped mound
with the hole in the center. Field mice and voles do not usually make
mounds, just holes. Gophers do not make runs near the surface,
moles do. Gophers actually eat your plants. Moles only disturb the
roots by eating grubs and insects in the soil.
Root Guard
Gopher Baskets
Humane and effective, these sturdy
baskets are superior to chicken or
aviary wire for barring gophers from
your plant’s roots. The 3/4 mesh, 20
gauge wire is double galvanized for
maximum corrosion resistance.
Just set the basket in the plant hole
with the green wire above-ground
to block the overland route. Put the
plant inside, backfill with soil and you’re
done!
Unlike the other gopher baskets, the
15 gallon Tree Size Gopher Baskets are
made with micro-fissures in them so
they break down after 2-5 years. The
root system can establish and then
the basket breaks down and does not
compromise mature growth of the tree’s roots.

Gopher Bait
This bait contains milo grain and strychnine, a
natural poison. It is the most toxic material we carry.
EXTREME CAUTION IS URGED! It must be
placed in a gopher run so other animals cannot get to
it. One grain can kill a bird! Nevertheless, strychnine
is highly effective against severe gopher problems and
it biodegrades into harmless compounds. Use a baiting
applicator to minimize any potential of poisoning nontargeted animals. Contains 0.50% strychnine alkaloid.
This formulation is not a restricted-use pesticide, but
is not allowed in organic production. Only sold in AR,
AZ, CA, CO, ID, IA, KS, LA, MN, MO, MT, NE,
NM, ND, OK, OR, SD, TX, UT, WY.

organic. Quick, reliable, effective control of
pocket gophers, moles, and ground squirrels.
The toxic gas produced will penetrate the
air and exterminate the pests or urge them
to move somewhere else. Please do not use
these for wildlife or near endangered species’
habitats. Not allowed for sale in Indiana,

Agrid3 Mouse & Rat Bait Chunx
Active ingredient in Agrid3 is cholecalciferol or
vitamin D3. When ingested, it mobilizes calcium
from the rodent’s bones into its bloodstream,
producing hypercalcemia and heart failure.
Agrid3 acts faster than anticoagulants, causing
death in 2 to 4 days, with feeding stopping
immediately once the rodent eats a lethal dose.
Testing has shown this bait to be highly effective,
even against anticoagulant resistant rodent
populations. Has less risks of secondary poisoning
than anticoagulants (e.g., if your cat or dog eats a
poisoned mouse).

Widely used for orchards, rowcrops, berries and grapes. Multicolored stripes
form a scary bull’s-eye, with a metallic dot in the center that flashes reflected
sunlight. Switch colors every 3 weeks to prevent birds from getting used to the
colors. Hundreds of growers have reported reduced damage from blackbirds,
starlings, cedar waxwings, woodpeckers and others. Control is not effective
on single songbirds such as robins. Suspend balloon(s) 2’–3’ above crop on

Penetrating, predator eyes. Reflective tentacles spin and dance with air
movement and scare birds. Brilliant color and piercing eyes signal danger. For
best results, hang the octopus just before your crop starts to ripen, so birds do
not become used to it. Remove after harvesting. For persistent bird problems, it
may be necessary to use this together with other methods of bird control. Place
octopus above the crop being protected and place one octopus every ¼ acre.

orchards and 8”–10” streamers in vegetable rows or grapes, at a minimum rate
of one per 10”–20” within the problem area.

WindowAlert
decals help prevent
wild birds from
accidently striking
windows. Each
decal has a special
coating that reflects
ultraviolet sunlight.
This ultraviolet
light is invisible
to humans, but
birds see it as a
brilliant glow – much like a stoplight. To
the human eye, the decals appear as frosted
or etched glass. The Elm, Oak, and Maple
leaf decals measure approximately 4” across.
The two Aspen decals measure 2” across.
WindowAlert decals are designed to be
placed on the OUTSIDE of a window. As a
rough guide, we recommend one decal for
every 3’ x 3’ section of glass. 5 Static cling
decals per envelope.

WindowAlert Decal UV Tester
NEW
Easy, fun way to test
your WindowAlert
Decals. WindowAlert
decals have a coating
that brilliantly reflects
ultraviolet light. Like any
product, man-made or
natural, the UV coating will
degrade when exposed to the elements.
The rate at which this coating degrades is a
function of exposure to sunlight, inclement
weather, and elevation. Depending upon
these variables, decals should be replaced
every 6 to 9 months. This 385nm Led UV
black light key chain can be used to test the
quality (fading) of the UV coating on your
decals. For best results, compare your OLD
decals to a NEW decal--at night. (You will
see, it’s fun to do!).

fly larvae, but not both. If you use our dual program, you will achieve
control of manure flies.
Hundreds of commercial and homestead ranches, stables, farms and
dairies are using our program to control manure flies.
The Peaceful Valley Wood Fly Trap’s simple design is based on a
great idea. Flies are attracted by a strong smelling bait into a one way
series of screens, once they fly in they can't find their way out. It will
catch thousands of manure-breeding flies and reduce your adult fly
population fast, guaranteed.
1. Just trap out adult manure flies with our Peaceful Valley
Wood Fly Trap and simultaneously
2. Destroy fly larvae by releasing Fly Parasites (see Beneficial
Insects page 8) during fly season. Fly parasites are tiny beneficial
wasps, smaller than gnats and are completely harmless to people,
animals, plants, and everything but fly larvae. The problem with
most fly control programs is that they deal with either adult flies or

Wicked Bugs by Amy Stewart
In this darkly comical look at the sinister side of our
relationship with the natural world, Amy Stewart has tracked
down over one hundred of our worst entomological foes—
creatures that infest, infect, and generally wreak havoc on
human affairs. From the world’s most painful hornet, to the
flies that transmit deadly diseases, to millipedes that stop
traffic, to the “bookworms” that devour libraries, to the
Japanese beetles munching on your roses, Wicked Bugs delves into the extraordinary
powers of six- and eight-legged creatures. With wit, style, and exacting research,
Stewart has uncovered the most terrifying and titillating stories of bugs gone wild.
It’s an A to Z of insect enemies, interspersed with sections that explore bugs with kinky
sex lives (“She’s Just Not That Into You”), creatures lurking in the cupboard (“Fear No
Weevil”), insects eating your tomatoes (“Gardener’s Dirty Dozen”), and phobias that
feed our (sometimes) irrational responses to bugs (“Have No Fear”).
Intricate and strangely beautiful etchings and drawings by Briony Morrow-Cribbs
capture diabolical bugs of all shapes and sizes in this mixture of history, science,
murder, and intrigue that begins—but doesn’t end—in your own backyard.

will catch thousands of manurebreeding flies and reduce your adult
fly population fast, guaranteed. For
over 20 years, we’ve heard nothing
but rave reviews from ranchers with
cattle, horses, sheep, llamas and
poultry, as well as from farmers,
homeowners and county fairs. The trap uses a strong-smelling bait to attract
the flies and a unique floor design to bring them in. The trap holds 25,000
flies and is easy to clean. Unscrew the lid to empty. Bait sold separately. The
bait consists of 2 lb yeast and 1 oz ammonium carbonate, which is highly
volatile and evaporates quickly; store in a tightly sealed container. You
may also use other ingredients as long as it attracts flies. Also effective for
yellowjackets when using a meat based bait.

Sagebrush Metal Fly Trap
For 5 Gallon Bucket
Use these traps in agriculture, food
processing, livestock operations,
waste management, horse ranches,
recreation, and home. The operation
of these traps is a two step process.
First, the flies enter the trap in an
effort to access an odorous bait. Then the flies travel towards
the light through a hole in a cone into a containment within
the top of the trap. The flies then die of dehydration. Yellow
Jackets (meat bees not paper wasps) are also easy to catch
with these traps. Bait and bait containers are not included.
These metal traps will last for years. Simply place bait inside
a 5 gallon bucket to catch massive amounts of flies or yellow
jackets. Bucket Trap is 12 3/4” diameter x 10” tall and fits on
top of a 5 gallon bucket, which is not included.

Not a wasp trap, but an ingenious exploitation of
wasp territoriality. Closely resembles a real wasp
nest so it convinces visiting wasps that they have
stumbled into the territory of an enemy nest and fly

the gray Waspinator bag and hang from a suitable
location; you should see a decrease in the number
of wasps within 10–15 minutes. Easily transported

Reusable Yellowjacket Trap w/Attractant
NEW
Roughly a dozen species of yellowjackets throughout
North America are known to bite and sting people.
RESCUE!®’s Reusable Yellowjacket Trap is designed
to lure them all.
The exclusive attractant draws them in through holes
in the bottom of the plastic cylinder where they
become trapped and eventually die of dehydration.
The attractant lasts for weeks without daily
maintenance. The trap’s durable construction holds
up in sunlight for many seasons of use and its clear
plastic walls allow the user to see the yellowjacket
“body count” so they can empty the trap as required.
Attractant refills available, including the RESCUE!®
10-week Attractant Cartridge for even longer lasting
performance. Won’t trap beneficial honeybees. Double-chambered
design prevents yellowjackets from escaping.

Reusable W-H-Y Trap w/Attractant
NEW
The RESCUE!® W·H·Y® Trap catches 5 species of
Paper Wasps; Bald-faced Hornets and European
Hornets; and 12 species of Yellowjackets.
The W·H·Y® Trap has a top chamber and a bottom
chamber. The top chamber is baited with two
attractants -- one of which is a solid contained in a
vial, and the other a liquid mixed with water. The
bottom chamber is baited with a liquid attractant
poured onto a cotton pad. Wasps, hornets and
yellowjackets have two ways to enter: either through
the top cap, or through the holes in the bottom cap.
Once inside the trap, the insects cannot fly out and
die either by drowning (top chamber) or dehydration
(bottom chamber). Durable construction holds
up for multiple seasons. Attractant will not lure
beneficial honeybees. Catches workers from summer through fall and
queens in spring before they build nests. First and only trap to capture
Paper Wasps, Bald-faced Hornets and European Hornets. Two-week
attractant kit included and refills are available.

Insect Control
Traps and Barriers
“Never look for a worm in the
apple of your eye.”
Proverb
Pheromones
Pheromone traps are used to monitor and/or disrupt the mating
activity of certain pest insects. A pheromone is a nontoxic speciesspecific scent produced by the female insect to attract the male.
Th is scent has been laboratory duplicated for particular insects
and concentrated in time-release “lures” that attract the male to a
sticky glue trap. Lures and traps are purchased separately or in trap
kits and arrive with full instructions for assembly and use. Two
different-shaped traps, Delta and Wing, are available in bulk. Each
is recommended for use with particular lures, as specified. If you
purchase extra lures, store them in the freezer until needed.
Pheromone Confusion Lures
Highly effective, confusion lures use pheromones to flood the
orchard with female scent, preventing the male from locating a
female and mating. Traps are only needed for monitoring.
Pheromone Glue Traps
Pheromone glue traps are used by orchardists, grain merchants and
home gardeners to “trap out” male insects thus preventing mating
and reducing the egg-laying capacity of the female. Trapping out
has proven useful for Codling Moth, Oriental Fruit Moth, Peach
Twig Borer, Grain Moth (especially in storage areas) and others.
Use 1–2 traps per tree in the home orchard. Commercial growers,
please ask about volume discounts.
As Monitoring
Pheromone traps are most often used commercially to monitor and
anticipate the mating activity of insects. By counting the insects trapped
over a given period and using data provided about the pest insect’s
cycles, you can determine the best time to release beneficial insects or
apply protective sprays. For monitoring use 1-3 traps per orchard. To
monitor grain moths, use 1 trap/30,000 cu ft of storage area.

Sticky Insect Traps
Many insects (including beneficial insects) are attracted to the color
yellow and organic growers have been using sticky yellow traps for
years in orchards, row crops, vines and greenhouses for pest control.
In low-dust environments, these traps are documented to be effective
for monitoring or trapping out leafhoppers, whiteflies, aphids, fruit
flies, leafminers, flea beetles, fungus gnats, cucumber beetles, etc. As
these traps also attract beneficial insects, it is recommended to use
them wisely. Blue sticky traps are used for thrips and leafminers. Green
traps attract thrips, flies and hoppers. The traps come in the form of
cards or tape. All have a brightly colored surface, coated on both sides
with special non-drying sticky glue. You can make your own traps or
“renew” commercial traps using the glue products listed in this section.
Sticky Yellow Traps
Hang these traps in the immediate area of pest
infestation. For trapping out, use 1 trap per 25–50 sq ft.
For monitoring, fewer traps are required. The package
includes twist ties and instructions. Each package
contains five 4" × 7" cards.

Pest Wizard® Cucumber Beetle Trap Kit
NEW
Effective for: Striped, Spotted, Western
Striped, and Western Spotted Cucumber
Beetle. DO NOT USE FOR Banded
Cucumber Beetle Adults, about 1/3” long,
start eating crops early in the season. Egg
laid at the base of plants hatch larvae that
feed on roots. Up to 3 generations per year.
Beetles cause serious damage to smooth skin
cucurbits, melons, grasses, corn, and legumes. Larvae can kill young
plants by eating the roots. Hang trap with lure attached beside or just
above crop rows from a cord strung between garden stakes. Lures last
4 weeks. Adults are attracted to the trap, land and die. Larvae are best
removed by hand at night with a flashlight by very carefully removing
soil from around roots and picking the larvae off. Carefully replace
soil. Note: If you do not find adults on the traps it is unlikely larvae
are eating roots.

Pest Wizard® Citrus Leafminer Kit
If your citrus leaves have a bunch of
squiggly lines in them, you may have a
citrus leaf miner (CLM) infestation. CLM
larvae feed by creating shallow tunnels
in young leaves of citrus trees, causing
the leaves to curl and look distorted. Our
CLM trap captures adult male moths. Use
the trap for monitoring or trapping out.
For very light infestations, one trap may be adequate for 3-4 small to
medium trees. Heavier infestations might require 1 or more traps per
tree. Traps should be up from March to November. Lures last 90 days
and can be moved from a trap full of insects to a new clean trap.

Brown Marmorated Stink Bug Trap
The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) is
found mostly in Eastern and Midwest states and is
rapidly spreading. This trap uses a lure to attract
and trap the BMSB. The male-produced aggregation
pheromone, which is commonly used in other traps
has been shown to only capture nymphs and adults
from July through September and does not work well
indoors. SpringStar’s patent pending pheromone
system targets ALL stages and throughout the entire
life cycle, especially during the crucial early feeding
stage and has been proven to catch bugs indoors and
outdoors. Use outdoors from spring until frost. Use 1-3 traps per tree,
depending on level of infestation. Use at least one trap every 25-30
feet in a yard. Traps can also be hung under eaves or porches or used
indoors.

Pest Wizard® Flea Beetle Trap Kit
NEW
Flea beetles are tiny beetles (1/4
to 1/16 in long) that jump when
disturbed. They overwinter as adults
in soil, in leaves, and in brushy or
woody areas. They emerge in early
spring when temperatures reach about
50F. Females lay eggs in the soil at
the base of plants. Eggs hatch in 1 or
2 weeks. Larvae feed on plants until fully grown, then pupate in the
soil for 11 to 13 days before emerging as adults.
Flea Beetles make many tiny holes in leaves called “shotholing.
Growth may be seriously retarded and plants even killed. Plant
appearance is also damaged. Damage is most serious when plants
are young and leaves tender. Deploy before or when crop is planted.
Delaying planting dates of susceptible crops until after overwintering
beetles have emerged is one way to reduce damage to young plants.
Monitor traps for early evidence of Flea Beetle presence. Put out traps
before or when crop is planted. Lures last about 90 days.

Pest Wizard® Gypsy Moth Trap Kit
NEW
Gypsy moths are an invasive forest pest from Europe
that is a serious tree defoliator introduced to North
America in 1868. Adult males are brownish and
females white. These moths have been found
in the entire northeastern US. Every year
they appear in isolated locations outside
the quarantine area. It is inevitable
Gypsy Moth will spread. Placing traps
is one way to help slow their spread. Gypsy
Moth prefers over 500 tree species, especially
Aspen and Oak. Larvae are voracious eaters and
can completely defoliate entire trees. Hang traps
from tree branches, 1 or 2 per yard. On 3-10 acreage plots deploy
3 to 6 traps. Gypsy Moth trap attracts adult male moths as soon as
they emerge. Kit should be considered part of a complete integrated
strategy that includes manual identification and removal of egg
masses. Do not move or share firewood from one area to another. And
hang out Pest Wizard® traps and lures to catch male moths before
they can mate. Kill white females the moment you see them to stop
egg mass deposits. Hang from tree branches, 1 or 2 per yard.

Pest Wizard® Stink Bug Trap Kit
This trap is used for the Consperse Stink Bug,
Euschistus conspersus and not the Brown
Marmorated Stink Bug. Most of the stink bug’s
life cycle is spent on wild plants. As these plants
dry out, the bugs migrate into orchards and
gardens, causing damage to the crops. Damage
can be in Spring by feeding nymphs or in late summer by adults. The
lures last up to 60 days. They attract stink bugs from quite a distance,
so they can be used for monitoring their appearance and for trapping
out. One trap per acre for monitoring.

Trap is a safe and simple permanent
appliance that uses heat and light

Apple Maggot Traps (Reusable)
Red plastic spheres that mimic apples and catch
apple maggot flies on their sticky surfaces.
Reusable, order in bulk or in kits. The kit
contains everything you need to set up 3
complete traps; optional apple scent lure may
be purchased separately. You may also order
the spheres and sticky coating separately.
For monitoring, use 1–2 traps/acre. Home
gardeners, use about 1 trap/100 apples (2–6
traps per tree, one per dwarf tree). Set the
traps out 3–4 weeks after petal fall (midJune). Note: Apple maggots are present
but are not yet a significant problem in California. Codling moths
are much more common. The damage is easy to distinguish. Apple
maggots riddle the fruit, codling moths make an entry and exit hole.
Apple Maggot Trap Kit Includes: 3 sturdy spheres, 3 wire hangers, 8

season. Lures last at least 30 days, longer in cooler weather. Contains

Confusion Pheromones
ISOMATE-CTT
Pheromone Mating Disruptors for
Codling Moths
Isomate CTT dispensers are similar to
Isomate C+ in performance, general
appearance and packaging. However, with
Isomate CTT, each dispenser consists of 2
parallel tubes filled with pheromone and
joined and sealed at the ends. The gap in the
middle allows the Isomate CTT dispenser
to form a loop that can easily and quickly be
placed over the end of tree limbs or fruiting
spurs (pictured). They are faster and more
economical to apply than the traditional Isomate C+ dispensers and
are applied at half the number per acre. They also contain 5% more
pheromone and last 20 days longer. Use 200 of these new dual-lures
per acre every 140 days (every 110 days in hot weather). Apply within
one week of 90% petal fall. CA, AZ and NM growers may need 2
applications due to the length of their season. This is especially critical
for late-maturing apples. Throughout the season, it is essential to
monitor codling moth flights with the Supercharged Codling Moth
Lures (replace every 4 weeks). Available each spring through May 31.
Hoop applicator shown above is not commercially available, but can
be easily fabricated. Operator ID# required for California commercial
growers and all Nevada Co., CA residents.

ISOMATE-C+
Pheromone Mating Disruptors for Codling Moths
The C+ is the model previous to the CTT.
The C+ has a long history of success around
the world. It attaches by twisting around
branches (pictured). Apply lures prior to
first flight of moths in early spring. Place in
the top 1-2 feet of tree canopy, using a pole
applicator if needed. Apply 400 lures per
acre, one application lasts 120 days or more
in CA, 150+ in WA. C+ is a great option for
small orchards or in situations where slipping
the CTT over a branch is difficult or impossible. Use of this lure will

Codling Moth Virus
CYD-X Infects and kills the larvae of codling moths
Each virus particle is naturally microencapsulated within a protein occlusion body
(OB) that protects it to some degree from
degradation. Lab studies have determined
that a dose of 1 to 2 OBs is all that is required
to cause a lethal infection in half of the
codling moth larvae tested. A single ounce
of CYD-X biological insecticide contains
nearly one trillion OBs. CydX should be
applied at least twice during each larval
generation. For homeowners: One teaspoon of CYD-X
mixed with 5 gallons of water may be sprayed into the
canopy of your apple trees to control codling moths.
Commercial growers use 1-6 oz/acre per application.
Must be refrigerated. Can only be shipped to: AZ,A
R,CA,CO,GA,ID,IL,MD,MI,MN,MO,NC,NH,NJ,
NY, OH,OR,PA,SC,TX,VA,VT,WA,WI. Operator ID#

Codling Moth Trap Kit Codling Moth
Trap & Pheromone Lure
Intended to help the
home gardener trap
out codling moths,
the leading cause of
wormy apples. The
package contains
two complete delta
traps and two 8 week lures. The trap should be set out
at bloom; use 2 traps per standard and 1 trap per dwarf
tree. Replace the lure or put up a new trap after 8 weeks
(and again after 16 weeks, for fall harvested apples).
Replacement lures (PIT107) can be used to replenish
your traps, but replacement sticky bottoms will not work
with these disposable Delta traps. (Note: These are not
intended for monitoring; commercial growers should see
bulk traps).

Insecticides
Some Natural Alternatives
“Frogs have it easy, they can
eat what bugs them.”
Natural Insecticide Glossary
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)
There is a concern that the Bacillus thuringiensis
(Bt) genetically engineered into GMO corn, which
is killing monarch butterflies and other beneficial
insects, is the same Bt that organic gardeners have
used for years. This is not true. The Bt sprays that
we sell contain Bt bacteria spores that are naturally
encapsulated in a matrix that allows the toxin of
the Bt to be released only when it is ingested by an
organism with an alkaline pH gut, including the
targeted Lepidoptera order. Although monarch
butterflies belong to the Lepidoptera order, organic
gardeners only spray Bt on specific crops, such
as tomatoes, that are not normally food for wild
butterflies. (Monarch butterflies specifically need
milkweed.) Also, the Bt spray that we sell degrades
quickly in sunlight, so even if a butterfly consumed
the recently sprayed pollen of a tomato, there
would only be a few days when it might consume
the active Bt. By far the most-used biological
insecticides are Bts. Bt is a naturally occurring
bacteria with many powerful insect-specific strains.
Like other biologicals, Bts biodegrade in sunlight
and may require reapplication.
Biological Insecticides
“Biologicals” are naturally-occurring insecticidal
organisms, usually bacteria, which attack only
specific pests. Biologicals are, and always have been,
central to organic pest control because they are
highly effective, insect-specific, biodegradable and
nontoxic to humans, animals, beneficial insects and
the environment. They will not cause secondary
pest outbreaks. Biologicals are the foremost
organic choice for the control of many pests, such
as caterpillars, grasshoppers, fungus gnats, fire
blight, and more. Biologicals work best if the pH
of your spray water is between 5 and 6, and if they
are applied in early morning or late afternoon. The
addition of a spreader/sticker such as NuFilm (see
Foliar Spray Enhancers) will significantly extend
the life of many biologicals such as Bt. However,
they are still short-lived in sunlight and may require
reapplication under heavy pest pressure.
36
NATURAL INSECTICIDES
Botanical Insecticides/Fungicides
Made from plants which are shown to have
pesticide qualities. Generally, some of these
materials, while safer to the user and the
environment than chemical pest controls, are
very strong and should be used as a last resort.
Used inappropriately, these stronger botanicals,
like pyrethrin, can cause more trouble than they
relieve by upsetting your biological balance and
triggering secondary pest outbreaks. For severe or
transitional situations they can be fully warranted
on a temporary basis. Use a respirator, protective
clothing, and follow the label instructions exactly.
Neem Extracts
This botanical insecticide is extracted from
the seed of the tropical neem tree. The active
ingredient, Azadirachtin, repels, prevents molting
and suppresses feeding. Does not harm humans,
birds, plants, or earthworms. Neem has been used
for centuries against aphids, whiteflies, thrips,
hornworms, leafminers, gypsy moths, weevils,
webworms, loopers, sawflies and more. Neem is
most effective against insects which pass through
all stages of metamorphosis. Use as a last resort.
Neem extract can harm beneficial insects.
Neem Oil: Broad Spectrum
Insecticide/Miticide
A unique, broad-spectrum pesticide which acts
as an insecticide, fungicide, and miticide. As
fungicides, they are most effective when used
as a preventative or when disease pressure is
light. Works by coating plant surfaces, therefore
preventing fungal spore germination and killing
external fungi on leaf surfaces. Thorough coverage
is important. As an insecticide/miticide, use when
insect/mite pressure is light to moderate. Suffocates
insects and mites on contact and is especially
effective on whiteflies, aphids and other soft bodied
insects. Also acts as a repellent. Since this product
is an oil, it can also kill bees if they are exposed to
direct treatment so we recommend applying this
product when they are not visiting your plants.
Oil products
Can be used as dormant oils, growing-season sprays,
or spray adjuvants for smothering such pests as
overwintering scales, mites, aphids, and peach twig
borer. May be unnecessary for most small scale
users unless past experience has indicated a serious
problem with these pests. There are many orchards
which are doing well and have never been sprayed
with oils. In commercial applications or serious pest
outbreaks, the use of oils may prove necessary.
Pyrethrins
This broad-spectrum, contact-kill insecticide
is an extract of the crushed, dried flowers of
Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium, a perennial
daisy-like plant from Kenya. Pyrethrin has at least
6 active insecticidal qualities. It is known for its
unique “knock-down” quality which stuns flying
insects, causing them to quickly fall to the ground.
Pyrethrin is also called an “exciter’’ because it gets
insects out of protected hiding spots by irritation,
exposing them to predators and bringing them into
contact with the spray. Insects have never developed
resistance to it in over 100 years of use. Pyrethrin is
used against a wide range of insects including ants,
aphids, army worms, beetles (asparagus, blister,
cucumber, Colorado potato, flea, Mexican bean),
cabbage loopers, caterpillars, cockroaches, earwigs,
fleas, flies, harlequin bugs, fruit flies, leafrollers,
leafhoppers, mosquitoes, psyllids, thrips, ticks,
whiteflies, & more. Pyrethrin is toxic to fish and
has some ill effect on beneficials. However, for the
user, it is far safer than chemicals and is one of the
safest botanicals available. Quickly broken down in
the sunlight, so it has a short residual in the field.
For this reason it may require repeated applications.
Spinosad
A nerve and stomach poison derived via
fermentation from the naturally occurring
bacterium Saccharopolyspora spinosa. New
chemistry represents an alternative to Bt for worm
control and offers excellent control of targeted pests
and low toxicity to nontarget organisms, including
most beneficial insects. It has a low mammalian
toxicity and helps conserve beneficials.
Keep The Bugs Off!
Natural Insecticides
Bugshooter Citric Acid Insecticide
This citric-acid-based pest control is made of natural lemon components
with clove oil, peppermint oil and ammonium lauryl sulfate, which kills
insects upon contact. Use to control all kinds of insects including ants, fire
ants, aphids, loopers, caterpillars, earwigs, cucumber beetles, cutworms,
flea beetles, leafhoppers, Japanese beetles, mites, snails, slugs, scales and
whiteflies. Use 27 tbs (14 oz) per gal/water. Can be sprayed on garden
plants and houseplants. Spray upper and lower leaf surfaces until runoff occurs. Repeat treatment as needed. This pest control is exempt from
registration and reporting under Federal & California EPA standards and

Debug Turbo Broad Spectrum Insecticide
Debug Turbo is a broad-spectrum insecticide that controls many insects,
nematodes, mites and fungal diseases in vegetables plants, fruits, trees,
roses and ornamentals. It is the only neem product that has a combination
of Neem oil Margosa, several triterpenoids, and Azadirachtin at a high
concentration of 66.5% and a synergist. It is about 5 times more potent
than its predecessor product Agroneem Plus and is cheaper per acre. As a
preventative, mix 8-24 fl. oz in 50-100 gallons of water or sufficient amount
of water to ensure total foliar coverage. For standard application, use 16-32
fl. oz, in 100 gallons of water. For greenhouse crops use a 0.5%-1% (.60
oz-1.25 oz /gal) and completely drench plants. For nematode control, use
52 oz-104 oz in 500-1500 gallons of water per acre as a drench or drip. For smaller
growers, use 1-2 tbs per gal, depending on the level of infestation. Operator I.D.# is

Bat House Multi-Chamber
Bats consume
massive
quantities of
flying insects,
especially
mosquitoes,
cucumber
beetles, and
codling moths.
Provide a
habitat for them
and they will patrol for you. Ideally, a bat
house should be located near water, in an
unobstructed spot 12’ to 15’ high, facing
east or southeast, so the house will warm
up quickly in the morning. Bat houses are
bottomless and have ⅛” black plastic mesh
attached to the inside of the outer walls to
which the bats cling. 11” wide x 3½” deep x
17¼” tall, with room for 50 bats. Mounting
brackets and complete information
included. No maintenance required. A big
brown bat can eat 3000-7000 mosquitoes
every night. Try that with an electronic bug
zapper!

Garlic Barrier Ag+ Botanical Repellent from Garlic
Garlic is well-known for its insectrepellent and fungicidal properties.
This specially processed all-natural
garlic concentrate is odorless minutes
after it is applied, even indoors. It will
not affect the taste of edible plants.
Garlic repels, rather than kills insects,
so it is important to apply before they
have taken up residence. It can be
applied in most cases 10–12 times per
season for quarts and 4–6 times per
season for gallons. Do not use just
before or during pollination or bees
will avoid the plants! Mix the quart
size Garlic Barrier with water at a ratio of 1:10. Quarts cover 15,000
sq ft. The gallon size is concentrated and can cover as much as 10–12
acres; use at a 1:100 ratio. Exempt from registration and reporting
under Federal & California EPA standards and therefore requires no
Operator ID#.

Gnatrol WDG
Gnatrol is a highly selective, biological
larvicide (Bacillus thuringiensis
israelensis) for use in greenhouses to
control fungus gnat larvae. It may be
used on a wide variety of ornamentals,
as well as all bulb crops, bedding plants
and vegetable sets. Once the larvae have
ingested Gnatrol, they become paralyzed,
stop feeding immediately and die—
usually within 24 hours. Gnatrol is now
available in a water dispersible granule
(WDG) formulation that will not leave
a residue and is easier to measure for
increased application accuracy. For light infestations, use 3.2 - 6.4 oz/
gal applied as a soil drench. Use 13-16 oz/gal for heavy infestations.
Operator ID# is required for all CA commercial growers, and all
Nevada Co., CA residents.

Insect Dust Diatomaceous Earth Kills Insects By Dessication
Comprised of diatomaceous earth, which is made
of fossilized water plants so tiny and sharp that
they lacerate the insect body and cause death by
dehydration within 48 hours. Because it works
mechanically upon the insects, they won’t develop
immunity. It may be safely applied indoors or
outdoors, around home foundations, in corners
and crevices inside. So safe you can actually rub
it into your dog or cat’s fur. If you apply with a
duster, wear protective gear to avoid inhaling dust.
Not effective when wet, but regains effectiveness
when it dries out. Controls ants, fleas, ticks,
cockroaches, earwigs, slugs, beetles, silverfish and
more. Treats 1800 sq ft. Not registered for sale in CA.

Insecticidal Soap Soap Insecticides For Home & Farm
Monterey Garden Insect Spray Spinosad
A staple in organic pest control derived from
potassium salts and is totally biodegradable as well
as environmentally safe. It works as a smothering
and desiccating agent on a wide variety of
insects: aphids, whiteflies, spider mites, scales,
leafhoppers, grasshoppers, earwigs and others.
Since it works on contact, it must be sprayed
directly onto the pest. Do not spray foliage in
full sun; spray in early morning or in the evening
when temperatures are below 85°. Be sure to spray
the undersides of leaves. Apply at the rate of 4–6
Tbs (2.5 fl oz)/gal of water or 2 gal/100 gal of water per acre. Hard water
reduces the soap’s effectiveness. If your water is hard, you must use a
water conditioner or softener such as Natur’l Oil (see Fungicides section)
which enhances its absorption. 49% potassium salts of fatty acids, 51%
inert. Operator ID# is required for all CA commercial growers, and all
Nevada Co., CA residents for 2.5 gallon size.

Milky Spore Disease Biological Control For Japanese Beetles
Milky Spore Disease attacks and kills Japanese
Beetle grubs in the soil, requiring only an
application every 10–15 years. Spores multiply
inside the grubs and when the grub infestation
subsides, the spores lie dormant in the soil,
waiting for subsequent populations. Milky
Spore Disease takes 2–3 years to achieve
complete control and should be supplemented
during this time with Japanese Beetle traps,
which trap out adult beetles or parasitic
nematodes. Best control occurs on nontilled soil. Apply it at 10

Mosquito Trap With Pheromones
Mosquitoes are known to transmit diseases such as
Equine Encephalitis, West Nile Virus and others.
When they bite an animal or bird infected with a
disease, they go to lay eggs and come back to bite
again. It is this second bite that transmits diseases.
The Oak Stump Mosquito Trap attracts, catches
and kills mosquitoes when they try to lay eggs, thus
preventing that second “disease ridden” bite. Our
trap uses a mosquito egg pheromone lure which
mosquitoes use to mark special egg-laying places. This “locator”
biochemical draws mosquitoes into the trap, but they cannot find the
exit and will eventually tire and drown in the liquid. Traps are reusable, non-toxic, and safe for the environment. Lure lasts about 4-6
weeks. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Nolo Bait Biological Bait For Grasshopper Control
This bran bait is not harmful to
animals, people, plants and other
insects, but kills most species of
grasshoppers by infecting them
with Nosema locustae, a parasitic
protozoa. Grasshoppers will spread
the disease among themselves by
eating sick hoppers and by laying
infected eggs. Apply early in the
season, as the over-wintering
grasshoppers emerge. Two to
three weeks may be required for
initial effect. Broadcast 1–2 lb/
acre around the entire infested
area, as well as outlying areas
such as drying grasses and fields. Heavy infestations may require
repeated applications. Nolo Bait has a short shelf life. While product
is viable for 90 days after the label date, use as soon as possible. The
manufacturer only warrants that the product will be viable upon
arrival as subsequent storage conditions can cause product damage.
Store in a cool, (42°F is optimal) dry, place until you are ready to
apply it. Do not apply to standing water. Can only be shipped to the
following states: AL, AK, AR, AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, ID, IA, KS,

Fungus & Disease Control Glossary
Biological Fungicides Beneficial microbes protect plants
from soil-borne pathogens, like pythium, botrytis, as well as air
borne pathogens like fine blight, powdery mildew, and more. Unlike
some mineral-based fungicides, they supplement rather than harm
biological life in soil.
Botanical Insecticides/Fungicides Made from plants
with pesticide qualities. These materials, while safer to the user and the
environment than chemical pest controls, are very strong and should
be used as a last resort. Used inappropriately, these stronger botanicals,
like pyrethrin, can cause more trouble than they relieve by upsetting
your biological balance and triggering secondary pest outbreaks. For
severe situations they can be used on a temporary basis. Use respirator,
protective clothing, follow label instructions exactly.
Neem Oil Best used as a preventative or in low disease pressure
situations for fungus problems. Use to control diseases such as powdery
mildew, anthracnose, botrytis, rust, leaf spot, and flower blight.
Oil Products Used as dormant oils, growing-season sprays or
spray adjuvants for smothering pests such as overwintering scales,
mites, aphids, peach twig borer and some fungal diseases. May be
unnecessary for small scale users unless experience shows a serious
problem with these pests. Many orchards do well and have never
been sprayed with oils. In commercial applications or serious pest
outbreaks, the use of oils may be necessary.
Mineral Fungicides Generally considered acceptable for
organic production, but should be used as a last resort. Other options
are highly preferable to mineral-based fungicides because they do
not harm beneficial microbial populations and leave soil’s “immune
system” intact. If you do use mineral fungicides, follow the label to
the letter. As some people are sensitive to sulfur and copper based
materials, we recommend the use of respirator masks and protective
clothing. Note that copper is alkaline with a tendency to accumulate
in the soil, so minimize its use. Sulfur, on the other hand, is acidic
and is assimilated by the plant and soil as a nutrient.
Copper Fungicides The strongest and most broad-spectrum
fungus controls we offer. Use only when other techniques have failed.
Copper can be detrimental to plants and soil when applied in rates
above the recommended amounts. Often used in the dormant season.
Read the label!
Sulfur Fungicides & Miticides Sulfur is broad-spectrum
with little detrimental environmental effects. Can be irritating to the
eyes, ears, and nose during application, use protective clothing and
masks. Used for the control of powdery mildew on grapes and other
crops and is effective against most species of pest mites, brown rot,
rust, and scab. Often used in the dormant season.

Bees
A Gardener’s Best Friend
“For so work the honey-bees,
creatures that by a rule in nature
teach the act of order to a peopled
kingdom.”
William Shakespeare
New to Beekeeping?
Where Do I Get Bees?
Get a good book, join your local beekeepers’ association, and set-up
two hives! Why two? How will you know what’s normal? Comparable
observation is the best tool for beginning beekeepers. Paint the outside
(only the outside) of your hives with a clear varnish (try PolyWhey) or
paint to increase the durability of your hive. Did you know that bees
can distinguish between colors? If you’re getting more than one hive,
consider painting them different colors so the bees can easily identify
their home & colony.
There are hundreds of apiaries or bee yards nation-wide. Many sell
packaged bees and some can mail bees through the postal service!
We recommend one three pound package of bees with a queen per
hive. Depending on the weather, these packages may be available
in April or May and reserving your package of bees ahead of time is
recommended. You may also be able to collect an unwanted swarm
of bees from a neighbor. Contact your local beekeepers’ association to
find out if there’s a swarm catching crew and whether you can assist.

HONEY BEEHIVE

New Exclusive Beehive Kit
No shortcuts! Our assembled 8-frame beehive kit includes everything you need for the first
two years of beekeeping and is more comprehensive than beginner kits found elsewhere.
This GrowOrganic exclusive was designed by our staff beekeeper.
Why 8-frames and not 10 like commercial bee yards? Once full of comb
and honey, a super (the wooden box full of frames) can weigh up to 90 lbs! This is an
unmanageable amount of weight for many people. So we’ve designed this hive to hold 8
frames per box which is more manageable for a hobby beekeeper.
Beautiful copper roof makes your new beehive a decorative addition to your garden!
You’ll benefit from higher fruit & vegetable yields (due to increased pollination) and be able
to enjoy homemade honey in years to come.
We’re proud of the quality of materials used to construct our beehive.
With the exception of the cedar hive stand, the hive is constructed from hand selected
Ponderosa pine from the Northwest. To prevent warping, each board is moisture metered
before it is precision milled. Uniform interlocking joints add strength and holes are predrilled before nailing to prevent splitting during assembly. You’ll receive a fully assembled
hive and we want you to know we’ve done our best sourcing our materials.
What’s in a frame? A beehive with top bar frames allows you to remove and inspect
the comb for brood development, pest monitoring, and honey production. Our frames
come pre-assembled with a plasticell foundation coated in beeswax. Bees can more quickly
draw their honey comb when given a foundation to work off of and this is most common in
commercial apiaries. Given a little extra time, honey bees can draw their own comb within
an empty frame.
What’s in the Beehive Kit:
Copper Roof This hive cover protects the hive from the weather and invaders with style.
Inner cover constructed of wood frame & sturdy masonite is strong, durable & will not
shrink thanks to mortise and tenon construction. Helps insulate hive from heat and cold.
Two 6 5/8” Tall Honey Supers with taper cut handholds made from ponderosa pine.
This is where the bees will store their extra honey which may be harvested by the beekeeper.
Add the first super after both brood boxes have at least 12 frames full of comb. Add the
second super after the first super is half way full of honey.
Sixteen 6 1/4” Top Bar Frames with plasticell foundation (which is easily removable).
Metal Queen Excluder Precisely spaced welded wires and bound metal edges will keep
your queen in the brood boxes and prevent her from laying eggs in the honey supers.
Two 9 5/8” Tall Brood Boxes with taper cut handholds made from ponderosa pine.
This is where the bees make their home, where the queen lays eggs, and the bees store
enough honey and pollen for the hive to survive during winter. The beekeeper should not
“harvest” honey from the two brood boxes. Start with one brood box. When 6 frames are
full of comb, add the second brood box.
Sixteen 9 1/4” Top Bar Frames with plasticell foundation (which is easily removable).
Solid Bottom Board & wooden entrance reducer made from ponderosa pine. Seal up
the bottom of your hive with a bottom board. Use the entrance reducer to keep critters out
and to help the guard bees keep other insects out of their hive.
Rustic Cedar Hive Stand Keep your hive dry and off the ground with rot-resistant
cedar. Either the solid bottom board (included) or a screened bottom board (see online) will
fit atop this stand.
Boardman Entrance Feeder When pollen supplies are low, you may need to feed your
bees. This feeder makes refilling easy without opening the hive. Simply put a sugar syrup in
a standard mason jar (not included), screw on the perforated metal cap (included), and set it
in the boardman stand. Fits very snugly at the entrance of the hive.
