LAVA-LITE is a new multi-use stone offering numerous benefits; as a 100% natural product with pH neutral properties, it is perfect for use with all plants. The porous properties of LAVA-LITE+ allow it to retain moisture, which in turn reduces soil drying and keeps your plants hydrated for longer. This together with its thermal protection properties, guarding root systems and soil from ground frost, makes it an unmatched garden solution.
This true all-rounder stone makes for a fantastic choice on the patio, in your garden borders and indoors as a pot topper.
For indoor plants this attractive finish will work well in helping to minimise the presence of fruit flies and gnats, as it works as a barrier to successful entry into the soil. When used in conjunction with a Super Ninja Sticker Trap you keep your pots looking attractive as well as catching any pesky little flies that may appear.
Key Benefits:
Plant flies – or fungus gnats – are not harmful to your health. However, they can cause damage to your plants. Where the adult flies eat mostly dead plant remains in compost, the larvae can affect the roots of your young plants, making it harder for them to absorb nutrients and water.
Plant flies love wet compost and potting soil. Therefore make sure that you don’t give your plants too much water and place them in a drainage pot. It is also important to remove dead plant leaves in time. Use a pot topper like Lava Lite+ or Lava Lite No-Gnats. And use a discrete Super Ninja sticky trap to catch any flies that do come.
The sticker traps are very effective and easy to use. You can stick them directly into the soil, after which they will immediately start attracting plant flies. Their yellow color increases their attractive power. The flies will simply get stuck to the sticker trap, after which they will die the same day.
The sticker trap is effective immediately and will catch most of the plant flies within the first day. As the plant flies can lay over 200 eggs per time, the larvae will keep developing themselves into flies rapidly, so to catch the flies quickly stops them from laying eggs and the problem should ease quickly.
The sticker traps of Super Ninja stay effective for a very long time. You only have to replace the sticker traps after 3 months, or if they become covered in successfully trapped flies.
