"Our lawn and surrounding flower beds have been plagued by vicious red ant nests for many years and I have tried everything to eradicate them........until I discovered your ant nematodes! What a marvellous cure. One application on each of the many nests has eradicated them in one go! I cannot believe the success. Thank you, thank you Green Gardener." Yours sincerely Paul Clark

Cat Repellents

Deterring Cats - Most people like cats, but we know that they can be a nuisance in your garden. As well as digging up plants in borders and using your garden as a toilet, they also kill birds and wildlife - There are 9 million cats in the UK which kill around 55 million birds as well as voles and other small mammals.

We have a range of products designed to protect your garden from cats WITHOUT harming them,  which in turn will encourage wildlife and birds back into your garden.

  

Cat Repellent Rods - Cats are lovely, but there are parts of the garden where we don't want them to "go". This environmentally friendly cat repellent is based on citronella oil. The repellent has a pleasant smell to us, but to a cat "phew"!


Cat Repellent Rods - Simply push the rods into the ground and once in position, each rod will protect an area of 1sqm for 1 month. These rods are easy to use and are ideal for protecting pots or open ground.

 

"Cat repellent in situ and the Fulham cats are certainly moving way from my garden.! thanks" Mrs T from London

 

Prikka Cat Strips - These strips are an effective way of deterring cats and intruders from climbing over walls and fences.

 

Prikka Cat Strips - consist of a triple row of pointed cones moulded from polypropylene, which are hard wearing and weather resistant. Simply fix to the top of walls, fences etc as a deterrent for both cats and intruders. Each pack contains 8 strips - each 500mm long (giving a total length of 4m) x 45mm wide x 15mm high and has 3 rows of "spikes", which are staggered for maximum deterrent, but minimum harm. Each strip is hinged so they can be moulded to curved surfaces such as drain pipes. The strips can also be split lengthways to give 3 single rows of "spikes". Fixing Prikka Cat Strips :-

  • Screwing / nailing (prefered method) - Each strip can be screwed or nailed using the holes provided (more holes can be drilled if necessary).
  • Glueing - Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from dirt and dust.
  • Trimming - Trim to size with a suitable saw. Curves and bends can be formed by immersing in very hot water. Make single or double rows of spikes by cutting along the hinge grooves.

NEW - Sonic Cat Repeller - Use this Sonic Cat Repeller to keep cats away without harming them. Site the cat repeller facing the area you want to keep clear of cats and if the unit detects movement then it sends out a burst of ultrasound, which makes the cats go away.

NEW - Sonic Cat Repeller - The cat repeller uses a PIR (passive infrared) to constantly monitor a fan-shaped area of 120 sqm in front of the unit. The cats will soon learn to stay out of the area. The Cat Repeller is powered by two 9 volt alkaline batteries - battery power is conserved by the PIR system, which means the batteries are on standby until the cat activates the system. Safe for wildlife, safe for pets and poison free. Price includes batteries.

  • Detects and repels cats without harming them.
  • Protect lawns, flower beds and bird feeders.
  • Simple and easy to install anywhere in the garden - comes complete with spike.
  • 2 year warranty.
  • Batteries included.

"I must have had at least 90 ant nests on my lawn prior to using your nematodes treatment. The treatment was 100% successful - there are now no live ant nests." Thank you. R Kemp

 

"I purchased 2 packs of ant nematodes a couple of weeks back and used them on my lawns straight away. WOW, I have no ants. They have all gone where I used the product. However, I have other areas which need treating so I will buying 2 more packs. Thanks for a great product, we can now sit in the garden without those crawlies around ones feet." Peter & Chris

 

"I have had a problem for years with red ants in my lawn - I used your ant nemtodes and I can't find a trace of an ant anywhere. My son and his friends now run on the lawn with bare feet." Susie by email

"I just thought I would let you know how well the nematodes have worked in controlling our ant problem. We had almost given up hope of ever being able to venture onto our grass without either being bitten by the red ants or if you stood still for too long having your feet covered in black ants. We purchased the 4 weekly attack pack & I am about to apply the last instalment, but am having trouble finding a nest to apply it to! It has worked so well." Cheryl Edwards by email

Ant control on hard surfaces

Diatomaceous Earth (DE)Diatomaceous Earth (DE) is a very fine chemical free powder which is used in the same way as ant powder i.e. "squirt" the powder wherever there is any ant activity. The fine DE sticks to the insect and kills it by physical means. DE is safe to use in the garden, around edible crops, in areas where children play and is safe to use around pets. DE will not only control ants, but can also be used to control the following WITHOUT using chemicals :-

  • Ants, earwigs, woodlice & other crawling insects in the garden - ideal for controlling ants in patios, driveways, between paving slabs, etc.
  • Fleas, ticks and lice on cats and dogs - simply rub into the coat. Fleas in pet bedding and carpets.
  • Worms in cats and dogs - simply add the relevant dose to your pet's food.
  • Flies in a wormery. Add a dusting of DE to the compost.
  • Poultry mite both on poultry and in poultry houses.

 

Diatomaceous Earth is the fossilised remains of diatoms (a type of algae). The diatoms have a hard shell made of non-crystalline silica, which does not decompose in the lakes, or sea where diatoms live. Thus over long periods of time large volumes of diatoms are exposed on the surface from dried out lakes. Thousands of tons of this natural product are available worldwide in many countries.

 

Diatomaceous Earth controls insects by physical means not chemical. The DE is applied to where the insects live and / or move and will be picked up by the insect’s exoskeleton by static electricity i.e. squirt into the cracks of patios where ants are appearing from or rub into a dogs coat to control fleas / ticks. Insects will die from contact with DE within a few days.

Mole Control

Controlling moles - Moles are one of the most destructive of garden pests and can cause havoc in lawns and flower beds. Often it is the best kept gardens that suffer the most, as the moles feed on worms which good gardeners encourage. Position solar molers and use mole repellent powder as soon as you see the tell tale signs to stop them ruining your lawn. Wetter weather leads to an increase in mole activity as the moles dig new tunnels to higher ground to escape flooded tunnels.   

Mole Damage - Mole hills and surface tunnelling are the most obvious signs of mole damage but their tunnels can also undermine plant roots, concrete slabs, etc plus other small animals such as voles will use these tunnels and will eat away at plant roots and tubers. Moles are attracted to lawns as they are the perfect hunting ground for their favourite food - worms!

 
Solar Moler - Mole chasers are normally battery operated so as the battery runs down you're never quite sure if they are working! This one is solar powered - the ultimate environmentally friendly power source, so no more batteries! 

 

Solar Moler - Now you can have a Solar Moler working away day after day, without having the worry or expense of changing batteries. Powered by a small solar panel, it emits a discreet noise underground that the mole can hear. Being inquisitive the mole is initially attracted to the noise, but after a few days it will become increasingly irritated and move away. Simply pushes into the ground so can be easily moved around the garden driving the moles away. One Solar Moler treats over 600sqm/750sqyds.

 

NEW - Natural Mole Smoke Poison mole smokes have not been available for many years, but now we have an organic mole smoke available which repels moles WITHOUT harming them! Once lit inside the moles' tunnels, the smoke coats the inside with castor oil forming a physical barrier and taints the moles’ food source i.e. worms encouraging the moles to go elswhere.

 

How to use them - Locate the moles' tunnel under a mole hill. Remove the lid from the mole smoke and light the fuse. Push the lit smoke down into the tunnel with the fused end pointing lengthways down the tunnel. Cover the hole gently with earth and make sure that the tunnels leading away from the mole hill are also well covered, so smoke does not leak out. Repeat as required using 1 smoke per 3 molehills. Natural Mole Smokes may be stored ready for a mole emergency!

 

 

 N.B. The other way to stop moles is to drive away their food i.e. worms by lowering the pH of your lawn.  Apply Sulphur Lawn when worms are at their most active i.e. after periods of heavy rain i.e. NOW to lower the pH of your lawn, driving the worms away. For persistent wormcast problems apply every 2 months. To find out more about applying Sulphur Lawn CLICK HERE.

Control Rabbits, Deer, Pigeons and Geese

Grazers - The effective and easy way to prevent damage caused by grazing rabbits, pigeons, geese and deer. Grazers is supplied as a liquid which is sprayed onto the foliage of any growing plant, where it is taken up by the plant making the foliage unpalatable to grazing animals. This nutrient based spray can be sprayed safely on ornamental plants, shrubs, bedding plants, fruit, vegetables and lawns. Developed for commercial horticulture, it has been successfully used by farmers and growers for years and is now available to the amateur gardener.

Grazers - As well as protecting the foliage, the nutrients in the spray help the plant heal itself and repair any damage already caused by grazing. It is odourless to humans and is safe for children, pets and wildlife. It can be sprayed at any time of year, but is most effective when sprayed on new growth. You can also spray new plants BEFORE planting them in the garden - simply spray the plants twice while they are still in their pots and then spraying once more when they are planted out. Established plants in the garden will generally only need one initial spray but they can be sprayed with repeat applications if required.
