Insect and Pest Controls

At West Coast Seeds, we believe that pest management can be effectively accomplished with organic methods that are environmentally and human friendly. Synthetic chemicals present too great a risk to the health of our families and communities and of the ecosystems that we rely on to provide essential life support services. Nature has evolved many mechanisms and relationships that keep pests in check (see beneficial insects and animals in our Glossary). It is up to the ingenious gardener and the clever farmer to apply these natural methods to our gardens and farms, with a little help from some of the safe and effective products below.
