When we created We the Wild, we were determined to help budding greenthumbs care for plants without the hidden petrochemicals and synthetic pesticides that are destroying the planet. Enter the secret ingredient to our Protect Spray... good ol' Aussie Eucalyptus citriodora! We use this ingredient in our Protect Spray, because the oil is high in citronellal. This is the same natural compound found in citronella candles - not only does it have a yummy scent, but it is a complete POWERHOUSE for houseplants. Here's why:
More and more, ingredients like this are being used by plant parents to fight everything from fungus gnats, mealybugs, or spider mites! Just like mosquitoes avoid citronella, many common houseplant flying pests aren’t fans of that lemony aroma. Combine it with our sticky flying pest traps to target houseplant pests close to the soil.
Houseplants and other plants often are susceptible to fungal problems, whether it's mildew, root rot, or leaf spot. Did you know that compounds in eucalyptus oil have antifungal properties? It makes the environment on the leaves less friendly to those pesky fungal spores.
Pesticides shouldn't be dangerous, and they shouldn't be thick and sticky. Eucalyptus citriodora is a favourite for its fresh, uplifting scent. Using our Protect Spray, which contains this ingredient, helps you feel good in your planty space... which means you’re more likely to give your green friends the care and attention they need.
