What is Mealworm Frass?

Mealworm frass is the waste and shed exoskeletons of mealworms. A 100% natural and organic fertiliser, it not only provides essential nutrients for plant health and growth, it also enhances soil health and boosts the immunity of your plants.

Sustainability

Is Mealworm Frass environmentally sustainable?

Mealworm frass is a naturally occurring byproduct of mealworms. As part of their natural lifecycle, mealworms excrete waste, and routinely shed their exoskeletons as they grow. This nutritious matter is called “frass”, and is produced as a byproduct here on Australia’s largest live food insect farm. Because our insects are grown to feed pets, we avoid the use of any chemicals and pesticides. That means our frass is 100% natural, organic, and does not add any chemicals or pesticides to your garden.

What are the benefits of Mealworm Frass?

  • Nutrient Dense Food

    As a natural, balanced source of primary nutrients (NPK), as well as essential micronutrients like calcium, magnesium and zinc, mealworm frass provides the essential nutrients and micronutrients your plants need to thrive.

  • Soil Health

    Frass not only boosts plant health, it boosts soil health too. As a form of organic matter, frass improves soil structure, aeration, and moisture retention (soil humus). It also feeds beneficial soil microbes, which help make nutrients more available to plants.

  • Plant Immunity

    The most unique benefit of BioMeal Flourish Frass is that it contains chitin, a compound found in mealworm exoskeletons which strengthens the plants immunity against pests. The Chitin Effect activates plant hormones, strengthens cell walls and releases natural toxins to enhance pest resistance.
