Reno, Nev.-Itronics, which produces fertilizer from photo chemical wastes, expects to complete testing by next spring for EPA registration of its new GOLD’n GRO GUARDIAN liquid deer repellent brand. Manufacturing and marketing plans are being developed for a sales launch in the second quarter 2008. Company officials reported that samples for testing have been submitted to a laboratory and results are expected within the next four months. Itronics President Dr. John Whitney said this means the entire registration process should be completed late in the first quarter or early in the second quarter of 2008. “In parallel with the registration process, the company has reached agreement to enter into a long-term supply arrangement with a large foreign manufacturer of the repelling ingredient,” Whitney reported.
