HOUSEPLANT INSECT CONTRO

Unfortunately this is the best stuff for those evil Mealybugs, Scale, etc. when it comes to Houseplants. I love that it is Systemic. Just wish it could be Systemic AND Earth Friendly.

Kills fungus gnats. Completely. Eliminated my fungus gnat problem--I had tried hydrogen peroxide, nematodes, etc. This actually worked. DO NOT USE ON EDIBLE PLANTS, however. That is why this product is not available in garden stores.

This systemic pesticide is the only thing that will eradicate fungus gnats and thrips effectively. You can also use it in conunction with an insecticidal soap and mosquito dunks/bits, and do bottom watering for even better results. Redose every few months to keep them away for good. I have successfully eradicated a large thrip infestation and a huge fungus gnat infestation.

I purchased this systemic insecticide because I discovered thrips in my plant cabinet. Luckily, it was just a small infestation and damaged only one of my props. I also have several fungus gnats in my plant soil which is another reason why I purchased this product.I simply spread this insecticide on the soil and work it in so it doesn't just stay on the surface. I water the soil and observe the plant for the next few days. By about a week or so, I did not notice any thrips on the stems and leaves of my monstera albos. Importantly, there was no harm to the plant from this insecticide. This product, unfortunately, did not fully eradicate my fungus gnat problem as I still water my plants with mosquito dunks in conjunction with this systemic insecticide and the use of yellow sticky traps.Pros:- Eliminated thrips infestation- Ease of use- Controls fungus gnat populationCons:- Does not fully eliminate fungus gnats

I bought some plants at Home Depot brought them home and replanted them in larger pots and after I watered them I set them on my terrace.I brought them in one day because the sun was beaming, the next morning my living room had at least 15 fly’s needless to say I went ballistic, opened the terrace door and shoo them out,So I look closely at my plants Fungus knatts crawling in my plants the Horror! So I got a fly zapper and set it down right next to my plants,that helped me but what about my plants so I look an find this product when I got it I still had the knatts I followed the instructions and left the plants outside for the day, brought them back in and I couldn’t find one crawling in any of my plants and the zapper is mostly quiet once in a while it might pop but this product works for sure I highly recommend it to rid you and your plants of these bugs. Sci fi prime.

I've tried everything to get rid of the fungus gnats in my indoor plants (hydrogen peroxide, mosquito bits, repotting, new soil types, sticky traps, apple cider vinegar traps, cleaning drain traps). I was killing 15+ by hand each day and filling sticky and vinegar traps weekly. They were everywhere, seriously disgusting.This stuff wiped them out! I sprinkled it on top of the soil of all my plants, used a toothpick to mix it in a little bit, then soaked the top soil with a spray bottle. It's been 3 or 4 growth cycles since I first applied this and they are gone! I've seen maybe 5 total in the 4 months since first applied. When I do, I re-wet the top of the soil on all the plants with a spray bottle and it takes care of it.Wear gloves and re-wet when needed. You'll be glad you tried it.

I have been dealing with annoying fungal gnats for months! I treated repeatedly with peroxide-nothing. Then Neem oil, which did improve infestation, but they never totally went away. So I scooped out the top several inches of dirt of infested plants and treated again. Nope. Then totally repotted, treated with Neem and topped with black sand. Thought I had won!When I got back from a road trip the buggers were back! The stickies in my plants were full with gnats. RAGE! I bought this after reading reviews and used just as directed. Out of an abundance of caution I used it in bathroom (away from kids) with windows open and a mask. I wear glasses so I didn’t put on goggles, and I most admit my eyes were a tiny irritated. Even though it’s a quick process. Would use outdoors next time. It was literally 2 days and gnats were gone. Like totally gone. Get your home back. Buy this!!

Was excited to get this & deal with a fungus gnat problem once & for all, but was immediately turned off once I opened it. The moment I opened the lid to remove the seal, granules fell all over me, my counter, my floor – some even fell in a kitchen drawer I have underneath my counters because of a gap. Luckily my dogs are well-trained and did not try to lick it up, but the fact that this was so poorly sealed that a bunch of product managed to get into the lid is unacceptable and fall out. ESPECIALLY when you consider the fact that this is dangerous to ingest and I assume inhale!! What if my dogs were not as well trained and ate it? I mean, some of it even flew in my face!!What was supposed to be an easy and low maintenance method of dealing with pests turned into a whole project because I now had to meticulously clean any areas I thought the granules may have gotten into in my kitchen. Of course, the drawer that it fell into was where I store all my Tupperware., so I had to empty and wash all of those as well as vacuum and wipe out that drawer.This could be the best pest control in the world, but I have half a mind to return it because I’m so irritated with the packaging and resulting mess. Not to mention all the wasted product.
