Organic Fertilizer - Features & Benefits - Specifications - Awards

DJ TURFCARE has won Turf Professional New Product of the Year Award with MO Bacter, an Organic Fertiliser which also destroys moss without leaving debris .

“We were impressed by the qualities of MO Bacter Organic Fertiliser and by the fact that it is genuinely new to the industry and developed with the environment in mind,” said Chris Biddle, Editor Turf Professional.

MO Bacter, from Viano of Belgium, is a slow-release granular fertiliser (launched at IOG Saltex) which eradicates moss by secondary action, feeds grass and improves the soil. Scarifying after treatment is not necessary.

Moss dies from an excess of potassium but leaves no black debris. The dead moss is then digested by the bacteria in MO Bacter (npk: 5-5-20). The product does not stain stonework, patios or paths.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission has seen remarkable results in which two inches of moss was virtually eliminated in six months, with no need for scarifying to remove debris. And headstones were completely unmarked.

“This product will revolutionise the way moss is treated on grass near stonework,” says David Jenkins, Managing Director of DJ Turfcare, based in Surrey, sole UK distributors for Viano products.

Renowned head groundsman Eddie Seaward MBE said he had tested MO Bacter and found it to be “very effective and very efficient.”

MO Bacter is unique as a moss killer because moss does not go black but is digested by the bacteria. Lawns are left free of debris and there is no need to scarify. Grassed areas will be fed evenly over a three-month period.

It is HARMLESS to animals and wildlife and will NOT damage border plants.

*MO Bacter, which is granular, is available for both professional and domestic users.
