Why Restrictions? All products labeled as pesticides, whether the product is natural, organic or man-made, are regulated by each state. Restrictions for sale in a state occur because the manufacturer of the product chooses not to register that product there. If the product is not a pesticide, there may be other regulations that the vendor cannot easily meet having to do with labeling.

The reason for non-registration is usually economic: each state requires a fee that is paid annually, or the cost of re-labeling for just one or a few states is too high. For instance, each pesticide registered for sale in Arizona is assessed a $100 fee yearly for each size product.

If you would like this product in your state, let us know and we will communicate your interest to the manufacturer. If there is enough interest, the manufacturer may decide to register the product you want.

In the meantime, call us and we will help you find a similar product that we can substitute that is registered in your state.

Neem Oil - By suzy on Nov 19, 2010
Neem oil is the best organic product I have used for 10 years and my veggies are growing beautiful. I would like to see the oil used in pellets with a scent of garlic. I was able to get them in one place, Kula Ace Hardware in Kula Maui, HI. It would be a product your America would like, really organic, very "Green" Suzy !
