Kate's Garden Plant Spray for Insects & Getting Rid of Gnats. Fungus Gnat Killer & Bug Spray for Indoor Plants (16oz, Pet Safe, Non Toxic)

Works amazing! I had been infested with gnats for weeks! Very annoying. I installed a few fly traps and they help but never got at the root of the issue. I got this stuff since it's pet friendly. It did catch me off guard in the sense that it smells VERY strongly of pine but thankfully the scent dissipates well enough and doesn't longer. Anyways after a couple weeks of spraying my plants with this stuff every other day or so, no more gnats! So happy it worked!

Waiting to see if it works. I just sprayed it on and around my plants with the spray. So far no damages to my plants or anything like that. I am hoping this natural option will work get rid of the algae gnats that I accidentally brought home in a plant from a local store. Ugh!!!!

I was given a new plant and with it a gnat problem. I tried using the sticky traps and thought that took care of the issue but the next cycle they were back in full force. I purchased this based on the positive reviews, but would not recommend for several reasons.The smell is pleasant at first, but it is VERY strong and does not dissipate. I used this product over a week ago and my home still smells very strongly of peppermint/citronella. Additionally, the label states safe for indoor use but after treating plants in only 3 rooms of my house, I got an air quality notification from our EcoBee that the air quality was poor and VOC levels were extremely high. I stopped treating with this product leaving the rest of my plants untreated knowing that defeats the purpose but at that point I was realizing the odor doesn’t go away and the mint was so strong it was starting to burn my son’s eyes (he wasn’t even on the same floor as me). I had to open windows (in January) for two days to get the air quality to drop to acceptable levels. Note that I had used 3/4 of the bottle in a 3,500sf home and it almost made it uninhabitable. Lastly, the instructions say to test on one leaf for an hour prior to treating. I have probably 100 plants so I chose 5 plants to test on and actually waited several hours since I tested before work and treated in the afternoon. The leaves showed no issues at the time, but treatment for gnats was to soak the soil, which is what I did. I didn’t notice any issues until a few days later when several plants started to droop. The guidance for the test is not sufficient. I’m pretty disappointed. Some of my plants will not recover. Others I’m hoping will pull through. Many, like my peace lily, I’ve had for years and we’re very large healthy plants. I do not recommend using this product.I treated the rest of the plants with a BioAdvance 3-1 spray and that had no I’ll affect on those plants. I’m hopeful between the two, the gnat issue is taken care of.

Working well.

Smells really good. The bottle/sprayer is flimsy and doesn’t work properly. I transfer the liquid to another sprayer. I cannot testify on efficacy yet.

There's a really long review on here that claims that the scent of this product made a home uninhabitable. I just want to point out that this product is effective but yes, essential oils are strongly scented. However, if you read that review and others that claim the scent is too much, you'll note that they've used far too much of this product. One review claims to have used more than 3/4 of the bottle in what seems like 1 or 2 applications. That's an alarming overuse! Too Much! Note: it's a 16 oz bottle and if you were using essential oils on their own they are typically dispensed in DROPS. Spraying 1/2 a bottle is way outside the recommended use of this product so it's not surprising the user had some challenges. Another review also complains of the scent but verifies they are using 2-3 times a day which is also not the recommended usage. Recommended usage is reapplication every 1-2 WEEKS.I have tested this product and like that it is natural, safe, and effective. My gnat problem is greatly diminished after a few uses and I'm sure after one additional dose I'll be in the clear. My plants are all still healthy. The gnats are not. That's all I am looking for in this product. Please read all reviews but note what the recommended usage is and weigh the review against that before making a decision. I find this product to be exactly what I am looking for without harmful chemicals and the bonus of a nice essential oils scent when used properly.12/2024 update: My Gnats are gone 100%. My plants all still survive. I suggest spraying as directed on the schedule that is recommended. Do not soak your plants. Don't overspray the leaves. The gnats and the eggs live in the soil, so spray the soil as directed on the bottle and your gnats won't survive. I'm SUPER happy with this product. It was safe, natural, and easy to use. I have more than 1/2 bottle remaining of the one and only bottle I purchased. (I had to treat all the plants in a single room, so approximately 25 pots/plants needed treatment.)

Reduced the fungus gnat population slightly? Instructions state to use it again, spray/moisten top layer of plants soil, after 2 weeks if it’s still an issue but the population was still a MAJOR issue at that point. Didn’t want to bother wasting my time. I have indoor plants throughout my home and dealt with gnats bothering me everywhere.

It smells good and kills gnats quickly. I had more than I thought, so I sprayed for a few days.
