Cricket Frass (Scat)

Who knew that crickets can create a fertilizer that is three times more potent than cow manure? Our cricket scat (cricket manure) is dry and made of tiny little pellets that are chemical-free and full of vitamin C and minerals. These include calcium, magnesium, iron, and antioxidants making it one of the best organic fertilizers available.

Your plants, flowers, fruits, and vegetables will grow strong, abundant and healthy with this nutrient.

NPK amounts can vary with amounts of excess food and bedding in the mix. This is why we separate this from the mix and reduce our end product into a fine contaminate free scat.

The NPK, or nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium rating of cricket manure is 4-3-2 or 4-2-2. In comparison, chicken manure is 3-4-2 and cow manure is 2-0-3. Different fertilizers with different nutrient values are used depending on what the plants or crops need.

It is said that the smaller the scat the higher the nutrient content within the manure. Cricket manure is high in nitrogen but can burn plants’ roots if too much is added. Because of this, you should never apply Frass (scat) directly to your plants. We add this Cricket Frass (Scat – poop) to the fermentation process of the “Liqui-Dirt” formulation, thus removing the risk to your plants.
