Tanlin is an organic, safe, and non-toxic pest control additive designed to keep growing media and root systems free from unwanted pests. It effectively targets problem pests, such as Fungus Gnat larvae, by breaking their life-cycle and reducing infestations over a short period.
Tanlin specifically targets Fungus Gnat larvae, preventing them from developing into adult flies. Tanlin is added to your plants water / nutrient mix and absorbed by the plant. As the Fungus Gnat larvae feed on the roots, they consume Tanlin, which halts their development and eventually leads to their demise. By disrupting the life-cycle of the pests, Tanlin significantly reduces and eventually eliminates the infestation problem.
