Treated vs Untreated
We generally ship untreated moss free of any
chemicals for a wide application including aviaries, reptile, insect or
animal habitats.
We will, on request, treat the moss with a pyrethrum based wash,
a natural insectiside. Pyrethrin is the
active constituent of the flowers of the pyrethrum plant, better
known as chrysanthemum. The species from which pyrethrin is obtained
are considered excellent
insect deterrents even in their natural state. This is because they
exhibit protective effects on neighboring plants and protect them from
infestation. In fact, these plants are often featured in companion
planting, a method of natural pest control used by organic gardeners.
Pyrethrin is classified as a neurotoxin and are considered relatively
nontoxic to mammals, including humans. Pyrethrin compounds do not
persist in the environment since they readily biodegrade when exposed
to oxygen, moisture and sunlight.
