KillerSoil™ – Deadly Good for Carnivores

$17.99

Carnivorous plants don’t play by the same rules as other plants. They thrive in low-nutrient, acidic conditions where ordinary soils would burn their roots. That’s why we created KillerSoil™ — a specialized blend of sphagnum peat moss, perlite, silica sand, and diatomaceous earth (DE) to mimic their natural bog habitats.

With no fertilizers, no compost, and no additives, KillerSoil™ keeps your flytraps snapping, sundews dewing, and pitcher plants filling their tubes without the risk of mineral burn.

Why KillerSoil™ Works:

  • Nutrient-Free Formula – Protects sensitive roots from fertilizer burn.

  • High Drainage & Aeration – Sand and perlite prevent root rot in boggy conditions.

  • Acidic Environment – Peat maintains the low pH carnivores require.

  • Moisture Holding – Holds water evenly, perfect for tray watering methods.

  • Clean & Consistent – Each batch is blended to exacting standards for healthy traps.

Perfect For:

  • Venus flytraps (Dionaea)

  • Sundews (Drosera)

  • Pitcher plants (Sarracenia, Nepenthes, Heliamphora)

  • Butterworts (Pinguicula)

  • Cobra lilies (Darlingtonia)
