Our BIG Idea

Founded in 2009 at the University of British Columbia (UBC) with a mission to change the way the world does pest control by focusing on one big idea:

2

Develop plant-based biopesticides that are more effective than conventional chemical pesticides

The Global Problem 3

Terramera Biopesticide Platform Technology 4 Conventional chemical pesticides Problem

Toxicity, Resistance

Solution

Natural biochemicals: Non-Toxic MOA, Low possibility of resistance

Natural biochemical alternatives “Bug” physiology and delivery

Unstable, inconsistent & short acting Stabilize & effective penetration Insects self-protect with thick cuticles, difficult to penetrate.

Technology that penetrates Patents pending: Initial Patent Office Reviews positive

Initial Target : Bed Bug Problem

Bed Bug Egg

 Growing Epidemic  US EPA and CDC declared: “

public health threat”

  US:

$1.8 Billion

Pesticide Resistance Toxic Don’t kill completely None kill eggs

Our Bed Bug Solution A BETTER SOLUTION…

…THAT WORKS
