Our Story
Fifteen years ago the owner of a successful landscaping business stumbled upon an idea to use d-Limonene (citrus-oil) as a way to kill unwanted weeds in a natural and organic manner.
After perfecting the formula, he filed patents for a Ready-To-Use, Concentrate and Agricultural version of what is now called Avenger Weed Killer and AG Optima.
Avenger Products LLC now manufactures and sells safe and effective natural and organic pesticides and surfactants all under the Avenger brand.
These products include, Avenger® Weed Killer, Avenger AG Optima Burndown Herbicide, Avenger Plus Insecticide/Miticide, Avenger Insect Killer & Avenger ZONE Insect Killer Aerosols, Avenger Roach Killer II Powder, Avenger Roach Killer Tablets, and Avenger Boost Weed Control Accelerant.
Avenger® Weed Killer
Won the coveted Green Thumb Award!
The Mailorder Gardening Association's (MGA) Green Thumb Award is awarded to outstanding new garden products available by mail or online. Winners of the 2008 MGA Green Thumb Awards were chosen by an independent panel of garden writers and editors. The winning products were selected based on their uniqueness, technological innovation, ability to solve a gardening problem or provide a gardening opportunity, and potential appeal to gardeners.
Clayton Beaty, of Beaty Fertilizer Company, Inc and Mills Magic Rose Mix, played an integral part of submitting Avenger Organic Herbicide for this award. "I think it's a great product and thought it deserved to get recognized for being not only a "green product" but for actually working and being a great alternative to synthetic herbicides on the market," said Mr. Beaty.
The awards are sponsored by the Mailorder Gardening Association, the world's largest nonprofit association of companies that sell garden products directly to consumers.
Avenger® is Based on Solid Science
University research has shown that these oils attack octopamine neuro-receptors. Octopamine is a key insect neurotransmitter that regulates insect movement, behavior and metabolism. The blockage of the receptor activity prevents the transmission of the octopamine signals, which delivers quick knock down, kill and repellency against a wide variety of household pests such as cockroaches, ants, dust mites, flies, wasps, spiders, crickets, and fleas. Our blends of essential plant oils are effective at killing bugs fast without leaving harmful residues.
