How does it work to combat pests?

ULTRA Wetting Agent was developed and tested at Ballagh Micro Farm - this is our solution to pests, slugs and snails!

  • an insecticide with no damage to pollinators;
  • an organic bio-surfactant performing a 'sticking' function to adhere to pests and leaf surfaces


Why add Diatomaceous Earth?

  • We add Food-grade DE because it is less than 2% crystalline silica and actually safe to eat. (TIP: avoid application within 3 days of food-crop harvest).
  • Diatoms that make up DE have microscopic razor-sharp edges which cut through the insect's waxy outer layer during contact
  • This allows moisture to escape from the insect's body.
  • OUR method of application means it can be INSTANTLY effective and LONGER lasting


The benefits are multiplied with ULTRA Wetting Agent - a lethal combination for pests, but 100% safe for you and your food!


EXTRA benefits.

  • Although DE is 100% safe, DE is traditionally hard to apply.
  • Being a fine powder, it is harmful to lungs if inhaled often.
  • In practice it also simply blows away in the wind! BUT when suspended in the Wetting Agent this prevents the risk of any inhalation, making it safe for all the family - and is more cost effective!
  • We also have included Activated Charcoal (AC) for it's ability to draw out toxins
  • Food-grade and inert - AC has multiple functions for soil health.



The organic nature of our wetting agent means it also acts as a microbe nutrient when utilised as part of a Natural Farming system.
