Seadust Wildlife ControllantTM is a natural formulation of food materials designed and tested to protect coniferous trees, shrubs, fruit and garden plants, landscape ornamentals, and agricultural crops, including Christmas trees, from damage by deer, elk, rabbits, hares, and some burrowing rodents.

Identify the problem

Browsing by deer or elk can usually be determined by the uneven tears on leaves and stems, pulling plants from the ground and stripping of stems; tracks and elongated droppings may be evident. Hares and rabbits clip stems at an angle within about 2 feet above ground or higher on snow; tracks and round droppings may be evident without careful examination of the site. Some rabbits and some rodents will also peel bark from the stems.

Prevent Wildlife Problems

Deer and elk usually damage coniferous trees in winter soon after planting, or, in spring after new growth begins. Deer damage landscape plants, gardens, and orchards in spring and summer—and winter. Hare and rabbit damage is usually most severe on conifers and shrubs in winter, and on garden and landscape plants in summer.

When to apply Seadust Wildlife ControllantTM

Prior to winter damage, apply the granular dust to those plants and plant parts expected to be damaged. During the growing season apply after 1 or 2 inches of new foliage has developed. If some damage has already occurred, apply the granular dust to both damaged and undamaged parts.

How to Apply Seadust Wildlife ControllantTM

To protect plants for a few days or longer during dry weather, spray foliage and stems with water and dust with Seadust Wildlife ControllantTM. This is particularly effective for garden plants against rabbit damage. Additional applications may be needed as new foliage develops. To protect plants for periods of 2 months or more, including periods of rain or irrigation, spray dry foliage and stems with Bond Spreader Sticker (CAS No. 36208-50005) at 3% to 5% solids in water and immediately apply Seadust Wildlife ControllantTM onto the spreader sticker and let dry 2 hours or more.

Storage and Disposal

Keep dry in air tight glass or heavy plastic containers in a dark location at room temperature. Dispose of according to state regulations.

CAUTION: Adhesive sprays can harm plants if not applied according to the label. Keep Wildlife Controllant and Adhesive Sprays out of the reach of children.
