BRODHEADSVILLE, PA – The homeruns keep adding up for The Liquid Fence® Company’s FreezePruf, with its third major honor: A Gold Medal at the 2010 North American Packaging and Merchandising Awards.

The North American Retail Hardware Association (NRHA) awarded FreezePruf, the revolutionary new frost protector spray for plants, the Gold Medal for Packaging.

The NHRA Award is the third prestigious award FreezePruf has received, having won “Best in Show” at the 2009 Independent Garden Center (IGC) Show and the 2010 MGA Green Thumb Award.

“A panel of seven expert judges selected the winners among submissions from 115 manufacturers throughout the US and Canada for its first-ever NRHA Packaging and Merchandising Awards,” says Allison DeWitt, Program Coordinator for NRHA. “As a Gold Medal Winner, FreezePruf demonstrated a superior level of packaging excellence.”

Liquid Net Promises No-Fear Pet Insect Repellent

April 22, 2010

EPA Cracks Down On Spot-On Pesticide Products for Cats and Dogs

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA – Just as the weather warms and pet owners begin to think about controlling ticks and fleas, the EPA has announced it is taking immediate actions to place new restrictions on spot-on pesticide products for flea and tick control for dogs and cats.

However, there is a no-fear solution on the market right now – that naturally protects pets from ticks, fleas and mosquitoes.

Liquid Net® for Pets, from The Liquid Fence® Company, is an all-natural, gentle and effective way to protect the family pet from ticks, fleas and mosquitoes. 

While restrictions on use and ingredients are being implemented by the EPA on many current products that contain irritating chemicals, Liquid Net for Pets contains NO Pyrethrins, NO DEET, NO Pyrethroids and NO d-Limonene.  It’s guaranteed to protect dogs, cats, puppies and kittens from biting insects without exposing them to dangerous chemicals.

Unlike harsh chemical-based products, Liquid Net is made with oils of botanicals and is pleasantly scented. It has been lab tested and proven to be more than or equally effective as typical off-the-shelf DEET solutions against fleas, ticks and biting insects.

Plus it’s non-greasy and won’t dry out your pets’ coats! And it comes in a new orbital sprayer that lets you spray upside-down for those hard-to-reach spots where ticks and fleas hide.

EPA plans are to immediately begin reviewing spot-on products and developing more stringent testing and evaluation requirements for both existing and new products. The EPA expects these steps will help prevent adverse reactions, including skin irritation, redness, or gastrointestinal problems that include vomiting or diarrhea, or effects to the nervous system, such as trembling, appearing depressed or seizures.

Liquid Net for Pets has received several industry awards, including Pet Product News Magazine’s Editor’s Choice Award (2008) and the Mail Order Gardening Association’s Green Thumb Award (2009). It’s available in a 16 ounce orbital sprayer bottle and individual towelettes for on-the-go convenience. Get it at stores throughout the country and on the web at www.liquidfence.com.


Liquid Fence Sponsors New PBS TV Series Debuting this Spring

April 19, 2010

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA — Long involved in environmentally responsible gardening, The Liquid Fence® Company is teaming up with veteran television personality and nationally-recognized gardening guru and author, Joe Lamp’l, a.k.a. joe gardener® to sponsor the groundbreaking new “Public Broadcasting”  television series Growing a Greener World

Premiering nationwide May 15th, the 26 episodes focus on environmental stewardship with a fresh, bold approach.  Joe will be joined by “Garden Girl” Patti Moreno and celebrity chef Nathan Lyon, host of Discovery Health and Fit TV’s hit series, “A Lyon in the Kitchen”.

“This PBS sponsorship is a perfect fit for our all-natural animal repellents and garden products that are earth- friendly and safe for family and pets,” says Edward Abraham, president of The Liquid Fence Company, manufacturers of the number-one selling deer and rabbit repellent in the country.

Each episode features people, organizations, and events making a positive impact on the earth and inspirational how-to projects to be better stewards of the environment. The show connects with the younger gen X & Y’s using the latest blogs, online videos, podcasts and social media platforms.

Lamp’l  and Moreno highlight the latest eco-friendly trends along with traditional gardening know-how, while Chef Lyon demonstrates how to prepare healthy meals with fresh vegetables from the garden —and locally grown produce.

“Our flagship product, Liquid Fence Deer & Rabbit Repellent has just been labeled for use on all food crops,” says Abraham.  “Those growing their own vegetables and herbs have an eco-friendly alternative to keep hungry deer and rabbits away and protect their hard work and investment.”

Lamp’l says he was inspired to make the show by his many loyal fans of his books and TV series. “The idea for a television series that blends my passion for sustainability and growing a greener world along with great gardening ideas and how-to’s was a natural result.”


The #1-Selling Liquid Fence Deer & Rabbit Repellents now labeled to be used on edible crops!

March 18, 2010

No more Deer or Rabbits in Your Veggie Garden!

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA – Those doe-eyed and twitchy-faced eating machines that can mow down a row of lettuce in minutes have finally met their match, now that Liquid Fence® Deer & Rabbit and Dual Action Rabbit Repellents have been labeled for use on food crops.  This is good news for all gardeners looking for a truly effective, eco-friendly repellent for fruit and vegetable plants.

And it’s great news for the more than 41 million households who are planning to grow a vegetable garden this year.  It is estimated that $50 in seeds can produce $1,250 worth of homegrown groceries purchased at a supermarket!

“With hundreds of dollars at stake, using our affordable and effective repellents to keep hungry deer and rabbits away from costly plants and crops makes good economic sense,” says Edward Abraham, president of the Liquid Fence Company. “There has been no formula change – they’re still the best deer and rabbit repellents on the market.  The fact that they’re all-natural, eco-friendly and now labeled for edible crops, just makes them even more attractive!”

Bye-Bye Bambi & Friends! Did you know that just one deer can eat up to ten pounds of food per day? Imagine the damage a horde of deer or gang of rabbits can do to your landscape and homegrown groceries – in just minutes!

You can try to control the pests with expensive fences or home remedies, like fabric softener sheets draped on your plants – all with limited success. Or use a repellent that is guaranteed to work, suggests Dr. Allan Armitage, renowned horticulturist and author.  “I’ve been a fan of Liquid Fence Deer & Rabbit Repellent since my first application… I’m a believer!”

Many other repellent formulas supposedly deter with taste, which means the animals must take a bite to experience the effect. At least one bite per deer – multiplied by a herd – can add up to major plant devastation!  Liquid Fence works on scent – so deer and rabbits don’t hang around browsing your ornamentals, annuals, perennials and edibles.

Because deer and rabbits have a natural aversion to the scent of Liquid Fence – a triggered fear instinct – the effectiveness will never diminish. This eliminates the need to rotate with other repellent brands. It’s the only deer and rabbit repellent you’ll ever need.

Beat-it Bunny Bandits! Where there’s one bunny, you can be certain others are nearby! High concentrations of young rabbits with voracious appetites are extremely persistent. They can do serious damage to expensive plants, flowers, and ornamentals, as well as your edible crops and plants.

Using taste as well as scent, without harming humans, pets, or vegetation, Liquid Fence Dual Action Rabbit Repellent delivers a one-two punch that stops young bunnies cold. 

Arm yourself to win.  The new industry-exclusive orbital sprayer, available on both repellents, makes spraying hard-to-reach spots – like under leaves – a snap. It even lets you spray upside-down! Plus, there’s no wasted product because the unique 360 degree design sprays every last drop!

Long-lasting and rain-resistant, both repellents dry with virtually no odor or residue. As of March 2010 all Deer & Rabbit and Dual Action Rabbit Repellents manufactured will sport the new “For use on edible crops” labeling.

So get ready for spring planting but remember to protect your landscape and veggie garden from raiding deer and rabbits and you’ll be tasting tomatoes and crunchy lettuce – without uninvited deer and rabbit nibblers!


Give Armadillos the Boot!

March 8, 2010

Coming Spring 2010: New Armadillo Repellent from Liquid Fence Saves Lawns and Gardens from Destructive Armadillos!

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA — From Florida to Oklahoma, Missouri to southern Indiana, armadillos are moving across America, damaging landscapes and gardens — one yard at a time.

The armor-plated mini tanks can turn your lawn and landscape into a battlefield and ruin thousands of dollars in valuable plants, landscape and flowerbeds.

Now The Liquid Fence® Company is commanding these mini tanks to “Move on out!”

From the company that brings you the #1-selling deer and rabbit repellent comes a new armadillo repellent that’s guaranteed to keep these pesky critters from destroying landscapes and gardens.

Digging machines! As solitary, nocturnal foes, armadillos forage at dusk and dig burrows that can extend up to 25′ long, disrupting root systems of trees, shrubs and ornamentals.

The snout-wielding insectivores dig up lawns, poking under loose leaves, and burrowing in gardens for their preferred food of choice: insects, grubs, mole crickets, earthworms, caterpillars, beetles, and more.

Since one armadillo is capable of maintaining up to 12 burrows, the damage to lawns and gardens and commercial farms and nurseries can be substantial. To compound the damage, their frenzied digging can damage concrete slabs and weaken your home’s foundations.

Burrows be-gone! You can try eliminating their food source of insects and grubs with pesticides that need several applications and may be toxic to beneficial insects and your plants, pets and family. Or use an all-natural animal repellent like the new Liquid Fence Armadillo Repellent that gives them a belly-ache, seeking food elsewhere.

The long-lasting, non-gel formula won’t clog sprayers and is as easy-to-apply as watering your lawn. And it’s earth, family and pet-friendly, and safe on all vegetation.

Liquid Fence Armadillo Repellent joins the company’s expanding line of environmentally-friendly garden products and repellents and is available in ready-to-use quart, gallon, and the convenient 2.5 gallon concentrate that covers approximately 50,000 square feet. Homeowners and growers will find the new armadillo repellent available in late spring at garden centers everywhere.

With the right repellent, you can win the battle against these armored pests, and declare victory over your land!

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA — The awards keep rolling in for The Liquid Fence® Company as they add another feather-in-their cap: the 2010 MGA Green Thumb Award for FreezePruf™ – the revolutionary new frost protector spray for plants.

The Green Thumb is the second esteemed award FreezePruf has received, having garnered “Best in Show” at the 2009 IGC Show. The Liquid Fence Company is no stranger to the Green Thumb, winning two of the coveted product awards in 2009 for their Liquid Net for Pets and Liquid Fence Mole Repellent Worms.

The announcement was made at the recent MGA Winter Conference in Baltimore where FreezePruf™ took top honors in the Tools, Supplies and Accessories division for outstanding new garden product available by mail or online.

“A panel of independent garden communicators thought FreezePruf was one of the most innovative and unique garden products for 2010,” says Randy Schultz, of the Mailorder Garden Association.

Developed by botanists, the eco-safe spray protects ornamentals, fruit and vegetables from frost and freeze damage. It improves a plant’s natural cold tolerance from 2 to 9 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on the variety of plant, helping to extend its growing season by a couple of weeks in early spring and/or late fall.

“We’re honored to be awarded the 2010 MGA Green Thumb Awards for FreezePruf,” says Edward Abraham, president of The Liquid Fence Company. “It’s always extremely gratifying to receive this kind of influential industry recognition.”

The winning products were selected based on uniqueness, technological innovation, ability to solve a gardening problem or provide a gardening opportunity, and potential appeal to gardeners.

The awards are sponsored by the Mailorder Gardening Association, the world’s largest nonprofit association of companies that sell garden products directly to consumers.

Award-winning Bio-degradable CowPots now Available in New Sizes and Prices for Gardeners & Growers

December 30, 2009

BRODHEADSVILLE, PA — Good things come in earth-friendly packages. CowPots, the biodegradable ‘pots you plant’ that make planting simple and gardening fun, are now available in new conveniently-sized pots and flats.

The multiple award-winning growing pots from The Liquid Fence® Company has made it easier for growers and gardeners to get seedlings off to a healthier, stronger start.

“Gardeners and growers alike love our CowPots and when they asked us for additional sizes– we listened,” says Matt Freund, the Connecticut dairy farmer who along with his brother Ben, invented the nifty pots.

Besides the currently available 3 inch CowPots in 12 packs and 4 inch CowPots in 12 packs, now gardeners can grab the 3 inch CowPots in 6-cell flats with three flats per package at their favorite garden center.

Along with the upgrades in sizes, they’ve downsized the prices! “Through new advances in production techniques, we’re now able to pass the savings on to the consumer and offer CowPots at lower prices,” says Edward Abraham, president of The Liquid Fence Company. “So besides helping the planet, CowPots are helping the economy!”

And for commercial growers who want the best start for their plants, 5 new sizes of CowPots are available in bulk: 5 inch square and round pots, and 6 cell flats now join the already popular 3 and 4 inch square pots.

Gardeners and growers love them because they save steps, time and resources. They’re odor-free, non-toxic and the perfect good-for-the-earth growing pot!

Made with 100% renewable composted cow manure, these handy pots for seedlings save time, are packed with the goodness of manure, and allow young roots to breathe and grow out the sides and bottoms, producing sturdier, healthier plants.

And the added convenience of planting these pots directly into the ground without having to deal with recycling or disposing of plastic is a real time and money-saver.

It’s no surprise that the awards and accolades keep piling up, the The Mail Order Gardening Association’s Green Thumb Award and Joe Lamp’l’s “Best of the Must-Haves for 2008.”

Mike Rowe of The Discovery Channel’s “Dirty Jobs” said it best during his CowPots feature: “Brown is the new green!”

Retail and commercially sized CowPots, new from The Liquid Fence Company, are available at www.cowpots.com.
