This natural Garden and Insect Product is fantastic. Not to be taken internally. Natural DEBug is a mechanical insect control. Upon contact, the fine powder absorbs lipids from the waxy outer layer of the exoskeleton and causes the insect to die from dehydration. Directions: For plants, lightly dust ensuring coverage over the entire plant, especially under the leaves. It can also be dissolved in water (4grms/litre) and applied as a spray. For indoor use, apply a thin layer in areas were pests are found. Active Ingredient: 100% fresh water, Organic Diatemaceous Earth, (Amorphous Silica 90%) Precautions: Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes. As with all powders avoid inhalation of dust. Wash hands after use. NON-HAZARDOUS

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
