Every garden matters.

Across Europe, millions of people care for their gardens, grow food, and enjoy green spaces around their homes. Yet for decades, the default solution to pests has been chemical pesticides, harming biodiversity, water, soil and even our own health.

Rootsum exists to change that.

We offer simple and effective alternatives to chemical pesticides by working with nature instead of against it. Using biological solutions, we help people restore balance in their gardens without harming beneficial insects, animals or themselves. No poison. No shortcuts. Just nature doing what it does best.

Private gardens represent a powerful and often underestimated opportunity. In Belgium alone, private gardens cover around 12% of the land, compared to just 4% protected nature areas. When gardens become biodiversity-friendly, their impact multiplies, garden by garden and country by country. Today, Rootsum actively creates this impact in Belgium, the Netherlands, France and Germany.

Last year alone, Rootsum helped prevent the use of more than 100,000 chemical pesticide spray cans. This impact is driven by a growing and highly engaged community, reflected in more than 15,000 customer reviews with an average score of 9.4 out of 10, and over 100,000 newsletter subscribers. Rootsum has also been awarded multiple times as Webshop of the Year, confirming that sustainable choices can go hand in hand with quality and trust.

Rootsum proves that sustainability does not have to be complex or expensive. By combining practical solutions with knowledge and guidance, we empower people to make a real difference at home.

If you believe that positive change can start in your own garden, and that small actions, multiplied at scale, can reconnect nature across Europe, then Rootsum is your changemaker.
