Essentialcide™
Botanical Biopesticide. Built to Stick. Made to Protect.
Essentialcide™ is a dry-applied, hemp-based botanical biopesticide that delivers broad-spectrum control without synthetic residues, re-entry restrictions, or oil-based carriers.
It’s a 25(b)-exempt input designed to kill, repel, and suppress a wide range of crop threats while remaining safe for pollinators, applicators, and the environment.
Try Essentialcide™ on your crops and see how clean protection performs.
Built for Certified Organic Use
Essentialcide™ provides multi-mode protection that works on contact. It sticks to leaf, fruit, and stem surfaces—holding position even after rain or irrigation—and leaves behind zero residue.
