Precision, not poison

By the time you see the webbing, there are thousands.

SMC finds spider mites and their eggs and smothers them with a fine, plant-derived film. No pesticides. No resistance.

100% plant-based, zero pesticide actives
Kills the eggs too, every life stage
No resistance, pests can't adapt
Safe for kids, pets, bees and beneficials
How it works

It doesn't poison.
It suffocates.

Chemical sprays attack a mite's biology, so the survivors breed resistance and come back stronger. SMC works by physics. Scroll, and watch it happen.

The film spreads across the leaf.Step 1 of 3
1The film

It coats everything.

Diluted SMC spreads an ultra-thin, non-toxic layer of plant-derived oil across the leaf and everything living on it. No poison, just a physical film.

2The seal

It seals the pores.

A mite breathes through tiny openings called spiracles. The film blocks them. Coated, it simply can't take in air, and no amount of adapting changes that.

3The eggs

It wraps the eggs.

The same film coats the unhatched eggs, the stage most chemical sprays miss entirely.

Know your enemy

What is a
spider mite?

A spider mite is an arachnid smaller than a full stop, an eight-legged relative of the spider, and one of the most common pests a grower will ever meet. They love warm, dry air, so homes, greenhouses and grow rooms suit them. Spider mites live on the underside of leaves and drain a plant one cell at a time.

How do you know if you have spider mites?

1

Speckling

Pale pinprick dots across the leaf. Each dot is a cell they've emptied.

2

Dust that moves

Tiny specks on the underside of the leaf. Look closer. They're walking.

3

Webbing

Fine silk over leaves and stems. This is the late stage: a colony in full production.

SMC is fully effective in all of these stages.

Safety

Harmless to
everything else.

There is no poison in the bottle, so there is no poison on your plants, your hands, or anything that visits the garden. The film works only where it lands.

The best product I have ever used to treat my spidermite infestation! Not only did it kill my mites on contact, it killed the eggs too.
