Aja Therapeutics Inc.
Proven, all-natural defense
against ticks, flies & mosquitoes
BioGuard1 is a fast-acting, field-tested repellent built for cattle ranching and livestock operations — no synthetic pyrethroids, no organophosphates, just science-backed botanical protection.
The Problem
External pests are a multi-billion-dollar drag on livestock profitability
Flies, ticks, and mosquitoes don't just irritate cattle — they drive down weight gain, milk yield, and feed efficiency, while ticks carry disease risk that can threaten an entire herd.
Why now? In June 2026, USDA confirmed the first domestic detections of New World screwworm in over sixty years. Combined with accelerating insecticide resistance across conventional chemistries, pest control is no longer just about nuisance reduction — it's herd protection.
The Product
Introducing BioGuard1
An all-natural concentrate, mixed with water for everyday integration into herd management and integrated pest management (IPM) programs — designed for producers who need safer, scalable pest control without sacrificing operational performance.
All-Natural Formulation
A blend of botanical active ingredients — no synthetic pyrethroids, no organophosphates.
Concentrate — Mix with Water
Dilutes easily with water and applies with standard backpack, trigger-spray, or mist equipment already on most operations — no specialized tools required.
Field-Tested
Trialed on cattle in Kentucky under real outdoor conditions, with strong early tolerability and repellency signals. Field data collection is ongoing.
IPM-Compatible
Formulated to fit within integrated pest-management programs, reducing reliance on harsher conventional chemistries.
Distinct Mechanism
Works through olfactory and contact-irritant pathways — a different mode of action than the neurotoxic chemistries losing ground to resistance.
Built for the Ranch
Targets flies, mosquitoes, and ticks across pastured, dairy, feedlot, and cow-calf operations.
Why Natural
A different approach to an old problem
Resistance is spreading
Decades of reliance on pyrethroid and organophosphate chemistries have led to well-documented, accelerating insecticide resistance across the industry.
Producers want alternatives
As resistance and regulatory scrutiny increase, ranchers and producers are actively seeking safer, effective options that don't rely on synthetic chemistry.
An expanding threat map
Ticks and other pests are extending their range into new regions, driven by warming winters — widening the population that needs reliable protection.
Everyday, practical protection
BioGuard1 is designed to fit real ranch routines — not to require new equipment, training, or workflow changes.
