Biological Solutions For Pest Management Since 1950
RVI produces and distributes insects and other organisms, supplies and tools for biological control of pests. We are pioneers in the use of natural enemies in ecologically based pest management.
From Insects to Microbes to D-Vac
Biological control programs may include commercially available predators, parasites, pathogens and antagonists--our complete of natural enemies. Don't forget to build biologically active soils and boost them with our line of inoculants. We have microbial and botanical pesticides for hot spots.
From Farms to Laboratories
Among our thousands of customers are small to mid size farms, orchards, greenhouses, nurseries, public gardens and gardeners. Our fly control programs treat small and large facilities that handle animal manure and waste. Hundreds of universities call RVI for organisms for research and instruction.
Cost Effective and Environmentally Sound
Our technical support centers on the Five Features of IPM. Programs for success consider the agricultural practices and other factors that influence the balance between predator and prey. Our bulletins offer insights based on years of experience following the Five Features.
