About Us

GrowLiv is a commercial insectary that breeds and sells biological control agents for the control of plant pests and diseases. Our production facilities are located in Amherstburg, Ontario. The beneficial insects that we provide have been thoroughly researched and are proven (both in lab and field) to effectively suppress pest populations below the level that requires the use of chemical sprays.

All our biological controls are compatible with the needs of organic fruit & vegetable growers and medical-grade cannabis growers.

Our product is never cold stored and reared right here in Southwestern Ontario. Our location advantage means that our product is not only fresh but also cost-effective because it comes from right here in our own backyard!

Before starting GrowLiv, they worked as professors and researchers for over 30 years, teaching and developing techniques for the proper use of beneficial insects in crops. They are passionate about providing eco-friendly solutions to farmers and reducing the use of chemical pesticides applied to horticultural crops. They truly believe that natural pest control is the only long-term sustainable solution for plant pests. It's not only good for our planet but also cuts long term costs for farmers.
