Palm Tree Weevil Killer

Nanotek 2000 has a breakthrough product, which is the Palm Tree Weevil Killer (PTWK). Using a nanotechnology engineered combination of primarily natural oils, this product when mixed with water and administered to the soil of the palm tree penetrates its molecular structure with nano soap particles. It is a highly effective natural pesticide, and has been proven to kill Coconut Rhinoceros Beetles (CRB) and their larvae for up to a year after one application, leaving behind no residual chemicals. Unlike any other pesticide, it also revitalizes the tree by breaking down salts in the soil, enabling a higher intake of nutrients. 

 

Palm Tree Weevil Killer (PTWK) Solution kills through nano soap particles that are absorbed into the tree's molecular structure through a water-based solution. The principal method of action for the Palm Tree Weevil Killer (PTWK) Solution is that it acts on the insect's respiratory system rather than the endocrine system. This is enabled by virtue of the nano-saponified oils(soaps) in this product.

 

Nano sized soap particles enter the insect’s tracheal system and suffocate them. There are also secondary methods of action which various essential oils facilitate, these include dissolving chitin, paralyzation and additional means of suffocation through nano-emulsion.

 

The Palm Tree Weevil Killer (PTWK) Solution is environmentally friendly and is the only pest control product that can be administered by watering palm trees with no fear of toxic pollution. No toxins will migrate into produce.

Why Choose PTWK Solution?

Safety

  • The US EPA has provided a letter exempting the PTWK from their oversight under Fifra(25a), due to the product's harmless ingredients.

  • The US FDA certified that the PTWK solution is non-toxic and is exempt from FDA regulations. 

  • The PTWK is harmless to the environment, humans and pets.

  • The PTWK solution will not harm produce, tree, soil, or water around the tree. 

  • There is only one man-made substance, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which is used in most toothpastes.

Long-Term Effectiveness

  • The PTWK is absorbed into the tree’s interior fiber.

  • CRBs start eating the tree’s fiber and will either leave the tree or die (15 min to 4 days) PTWK also acts to repel CRB.

  • One treatment found to be effective up to 1 year or more - compared to existing pesticides having to be used every 3 months.

Strengths

  • Only insect killer that uses root treatment.

  • Root treatment only takes 10 minutes per tree.

  • Non-toxic.

  • Trees grow faster.

Other Benefits

  • Salt is a nutrient, however, too much salt in water will block a tree’s growth.

  • The PTWK breaks down salts into nano-particles, enabling it to absorb it as a nutrient.

  • The increased nutrient flow will increase  the rate of growth for your palm trees by providing extra nutrients.
