ORGANIC Formula
The products supplied by HOMS are based on natural food grade ingredients used for personal care products and not as agricultural products.
HOMS is a very small company producing beneficial insect control products for people, animals and the environment. The products are environmentally sensitive and contribute to a poison free environment while effectively controlling insects and pests in the form of repellents, insecticides and herbicides.
It is important to provide safe bio-pesticides that are as effective as the poisonous chemical pesticides, especially an organic formula that is extremely effective at controlling insects that cause diseases from mosquitoes, ticks and roaches. Under our BiteBlocker brand of insect repellents, the USDA reported that this formula was the leading natural formula in terms of efficacy.
Several studies are referenced below proving our products are the most effective natural and organic means of controlling insects without harming the environment. HOMS complies with the intent of the USDA NOP program and is desirous of being able to certify this effective uniquely organic product.
