Kaya Farm EM-5 Hot Chili
EM-5 is an incredibly versatile non-toxic insect repellant and a strong natural cleaning agent that can be used on both plants as well as equipment, tools, etc… It is brewed using beneficial microbes that remain in solution and contains high levels of anti-oxidant which can help suppress diseases and increase the plant’s resistence against pests and pathogens. EM-5 does not directly kill the insects but drives them away due to the volatile compounds in it as well as the production of esters resulting from the high lactic acid bacteria population. A rotation of Activated microbes, Fermented plant extract and EM-5 makes for a solid IPM program.
