Vegalab Biosecurity has three products built for animal housing and water systems, five Crop Science products being extended to premise use, and two programs in development. Each listing states what the current label covers, so buyers can separate what is sold today from what is still moving through label amendment.
Available now
Vetpure Disinfectant is a nano-encapsulated, stabilized chlorine dioxide powder that dissolves to at least 98% ClO2 purity and holds in solution for up to one month when stored correctly. Vetpure Miticide is an essential-oil premise concentrate for mites and lice in poultry and animal housing, applied to structures, bedding and surroundings, never to animals. PureTabs are pre-measured effervescent chlorine dioxide tablets for water treatment, footbaths and equipment. Pathogen and pest claims for each product are those on the registered label in your jurisdiction.
Crop Science products extended to premise use
Spider Mite Control, Slug Control, Larva BioControl, Mosquito BioControl and Jumping Worm Control are sold today with crop and plant labels. Their actives (geraniol, tea saponin, entomopathogenic nematodes) are relevant to kennels, yards, manure pits and livestock water. Premise and structural uses require a label amendment and state acceptance, so these pages are marked in development for premise use. Using any pesticide in a way inconsistent with its label is a violation of federal law, and none of these pages give off-label rates.
Pipeline and selection tools
Two programs are in development: a tick control product and a crawling insect concentrate for ants and cockroaches, both built on the geraniol platform and both awaiting trial data and label steps. The Product Finder narrows the range by pest, environment and species present. The Dilution and Dose Calculator converts label rates into volumes for a sprayer, fogger or water line. Neither tool will return a rate that is not on a current label.
Key facts
- Vetpure Disinfectant dissolves to at least 98% chlorine dioxide purity and remains stable in solution for up to one month when stored correctly (Vegalab product specification)
- It is a violation of federal law to use a pesticide in a manner inconsistent with its labeling (FIFRA section 12(a)(2)(G), 7 U.S.C. 136j)
- States are not required to permit sale of a minimum-risk 25(b) product simply because it is exempt under federal law, and many require state registration (US EPA, State Regulation of Minimum Risk Pesticides)
How our delivery technology applies
All three current products depend on encapsulation. Vetpure Disinfectant uses it to keep a chlorine dioxide precursor stable as a dry powder until dissolution. Vetpure Miticide and the geraniol cross-lists use it to slow evaporation of volatile oils and hold them on the treated surface longer. The biological products are the exception: nematodes are live organisms and are not encapsulated.

Vetpure Disinfectant is a nano-encapsulated, stabilized chlorine dioxide powder that dissolves to at least 98% ClO2 purity and stays stable in solution for up to one month when properly stored.
Vetpure Miticide is a nano-emulsified concentrate of plant essential oils for mites and lice in poultry and animal housing.
PureTabs are effervescent tablets that dissolve in water to release a pre-measured dose of chlorine dioxide at at least 98% purity.
Spider Mite Control is a FIFRA 25(b) geraniol concentrate sold today with a crop and plant label.
Slug Control uses tea saponin, a triterpenoid glycoside from the seed of Camellia oleifera, and is currently labeled for garden and crop use.
Larva BioControl contains the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae and is currently sold with crop and garden directions.
Mosquito BioControl uses Heterorhabditis entomopathogenic nematodes against mosquito larvae and is currently sold with garden and plant-area directions.
Invasive jumping worms spread mainly through moved soil, mulch, compost and potted plants, so containment is a biosecurity problem as much as a garden one.
