The present invention describes a material and a method for controlling
fungi. The method consists of disposing a naturally formed chitinase about
an area to be protected. The naturally formed chitinase is produced from
worm castings and the worm castings may be disposed naturally, in the form
of timed-release pellets, or in a liquid form. The area to be protected
includes plants and structures. The naturally formed chitinase may be
disposed about the base of the plant or structure, or on the leaves of the
plant.
