Cedarcide Lawn, Home & Garden Cedar Granules | Repels Fleas, Ticks, Ants & Mosquitoes | Smells Great, Easy to Use | Family & Pet Safe | 1 Bag (8 Lbs)

We LOVE this product. Just wish it was easier to get. Our order was inexplicably cancels the first two times we tried to get it this year, making us wait. When it finally arrived, ut is just as expected though.We use this every Spring in outdoor pet feeding and shelter areas to keep fleas and ticks away from the feral colony we care for. The cut of these isn’t like other cedar products you might find, which are better used for pet bedding. Cedarcide granules are just that, very small balls of wood, curls that are probably ground from logs with some sort of cheese grater-like blade, so they’re dense and weighty.This product does well underfoot due to the weight, to doesn’t blow away, though we also use it for the base layer and then cover it with pine tags or “pine straw.” These two together in a relatively sheltered area are soft and comfortable underfoot, and work well as warm weather bedding that wards off ticks and fleas.You can also use any time of year to fill sachets to keep moths away from your wool, cashmere, silk.. all natural fibers. If used that way the same company also makes sprays containing essential oils of cedar that you can use to recharge your granules, year after year.. just remove the cedar granules from your drawstring bags, spread it out on smoothing non absorbant, like a large plastic trash bag and spray it well, let dry, reposition and spray again. Any extra dampness could be poured away, but it usually is all absorbed. Then you can make a paper or cardstock funnel to refill your bags with granules. Cedarcide is a GREAT all natural and non toxic way to keep these pests away!

We've been having a major black fly infestation and your typical ticks at our house. This along with a lawn spray were the only products that seemed to decrease the numbers of flies and we haven't seen a single tick in weeks since spreading this around the yard. Not to mention the smell of the cedar chips is quite nice! Worth the money in my opinion.

I was looking for something natural to use to help control the gnats in my backyard. This stuff smells great and I noticed a difference immediately. It is so easy to apply to lawn using a spreader. I will be purchasing again to use in a few weeks.

As soon as I began to spread the lawn down stairs with it, u can see a large swarm of mosquitoes fleeing my tiny apt at ONCE. It requires water to be effective so shortly after I sprinkled a nice layer all over the yard n on my porch it began to pour. It became even more effective.

So I found this on the green genie and I started purchasing this and putting around my yard every 3 weeks. I started putting it around the house and yard out to the fence starting in December in South GA North Florida area. I was thinking it was working, there were only a few mosquitoes hanging out int heir normal areas and they seemed to leave when spreading the mulch. Now that we are officially in Spring the mosquitoes are back and are unaffected by this mulch. So I've spent $45-$50 four times for four applications and this stuff is not working. You can see in these pictures, the cedar mulch I applied a week ago is apparent in the picture on the brick and yet there are several mosquitoes just chilling above the mulch. I was hoping since a Florida nursery was praising this product it was the real thing, but they must be getting paid for advertising. Shame. $200 loss. Maybe it works up north but apparently not in south GA/North FL.

This stuff works!! At the beginning of Spring, I would be covered in gnats just trying to water the lawn. The first day after treating the grass and garden beds, there was a significant improvement, and after a week the lawn was gnat free. I’m curious to see how long we can keep the bugs at bay. I prefer this method over dousing myself in bug spray!

The cedar smell is barely present (even after adding water).I can spread some in smaller areas in a thin spotty application based on bag contents. I don’t see how it can cover the area it advertised and still be effective. I was expecting a significant cedar smell for the price and this was not the case.

Good mosquito abatement. Smells great! Easy to toss in flowerbeds.
