Yes. OrganiShield Hawaii is safe to use around people. And it is also a Food Safe Product.
variations in their composition. These variations can influence the color and odor of our final products active
ingredient Sucrose Octanoate. The manufacturing process of sucrose octanoate may involve heating,
reactions, or other treatments. Variations in processing conditions, such as temperature, pressure, or reaction
time, can impact the final product’s characteristics, including smell and color.
“It’s important to note that these fluctuations in smell and color do not indicate a problem with
the quality or safety of sucrose octanoate. At OrganiShield Hawaii we implement the highest quality control measures
to ensure that our product meets the necessary specifications and standards. However, variations can occur
due to the complex nature of organic chemistry and the influence of environmental factors.”
The Science Behind Organishield

Our product effectively manages pests such as Adelgids, Aphids, Armyworms, Caterpillars, Glassy-winged Sharpshooters, Lacebugs, Leafhoppers, Mealybugs, Mites, Plant Bugs, Psyllids, Soft Scale, Tent caterpillars, Thrips, Fungus gnats, Whiteflies, and many more.
Sustainable and Reliable Pest Control with OrganiShield
We offer a sustainable and environmentally safe alternative to chemical pesticides. OrganiShield is also effective against pests that have developed resistance to chemical pesticides, as insects cannot develop a resistance to the effects of OrganiShield. This makes our product a reliable choice for consistent and long-term pest control, ensuring the health and vitality of your plants and the ecosystem.
about the company
Discovering OrganiShield
In the late 1990s, a team of researchers discovered something fascinating about certain plants. They found that some plants in nature secrete a particular molecule called sucrose octanoate from the tiny hairs on their leaves to ward off pests. They were amazed to learn that this molecule had insecticidal properties, dissolving the waxy protective coating of target pests, causing them to dry out and die.
Inspired by nature’s solution, the team embarked on years of research to find a way to produce this molecule for organic insecticidal purposes on a commercially viable scale. Finally, they succeeded in formulating a process and methodology to create OrganiShield, with its active ingredient sucrose octanoate. This breakthrough allowed them to bring nature’s most effective and safest pest control to the world.
And so, the story of OrganiShield began, rooted in the discovery of a remarkable molecule and the power of nature, providing the beautiful ‘āina of Hawaii with an unparalleled, eco-friendly solution for pest control.

According to the U.S. EPA, the substance biodegrades quickly, reducing the potential for adverse biochemical or chemical interactions. Products containing sucrose octanoate esters (SOEs) break down into inert components including sucrose, fatty acids, carbon dioxide, and water, all of which are nontoxic. SOEs rapidly biodegrade and do not persist or accumulate in the environment (U.S. EPA, 2002a). OrganiShield is the only product you will find in Hawaii that offers such a safe and effective solution for pest control. Perfect for use on fruits, vegetables, hemp, and more, our product ensures that your plants are protected without harming the environment. Embrace the best of nature with OrganiShield, providing unparalleled protection for your crops and peace of mind for you.
