How can Essential Gold kill bugs but not harm people?
It is true that Essential Gold kills many types of insects, but it is NOT poisonous to them. Rather, it affects their shells (exoskeleton). Because an insect’s exoskeleton is composed of oil-based molecules, Essential Gold’s colloidal micelle action has the same effect on it as it would any other oil or grease molecule. It dissolves it. Because mammals are not oil-based, but rather aqueous (water)-based, Essential Gold is absolutely harmless to humans and animals.
