Our product contains meal worm castings, the bran bedding they are grown in, and their exoskeletons. The castings are full of nutrition and beneficial microbes. The meal worms are fed a vegetarian diet, lending to a plant healthy fertilizer. Exoskeletons are the shedding of the insects as they molt. The exoskeletons are made of chitin (Kite-in), a tough protein, that when degraded, becomes a great fertilizer source. The degrading of chitin is done by an enzyme called chitinase (kite-in-ase), this enzyme triggers a plant's immune defense response, known as the SIR or Systematic Immune Response, which bulks up a plant's natural defenses. Chitinase is naturally associated with the chitin in frass. Frass can be used any time throughout a season.

I got this and just assumed it would be. I have a medical marijuana grow permit and grow organically. I got this as a soil amendment. Thankfully I only made up enough soil for the seedling starter cups. About a week and a half after starting the seeds I had mealworms crawling all over the place. Did a search on them and found out that they we eat just about anything including the roots of your plant. Sent an email to the seller and they basically said they weren’t concerned, I got adamant and they refunded my money. I left it sit for about a year unused. Finally I put it in the oven at 200 degrees for 4 hours and it killed everything, then I used it. So if you don’t mind “debugging” it yourself get it, if you don’t then don’t get it because it’s full of eggs, even found a couple of live mealworm beetles when I put it in a fireproof pot to cook it. **Q: Is there any npk to this frass?** A: It’s around 2-2-2 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best bug for your buck *by J***S on May 5, 2026* Arrived way faster than expected.

It's a mild fertilizer great for use in organic teas. It's also a fantastic source of chitosan which helps disease and bug resistance in plants. It's like Franks Red Hot.
