Bonide Captain Jack's Deadbug Brew Ready-to-Use Spray, 32 oz Outdoor Insecticide and Mite Killer for Organic Gardening

Excellent Product!!! Helped bring ALL my geraniums back to their beautiful glory. Plants are thriving & doing better than I ever expected. After years of watching the plants suffer because of the little bugs eating all the flowers and turning the leaves pale, the leaves are Lush and vibrant and there are SO many flowers. I'm so happy I found this product!!!

Seems to work pretty well although at first I didn't think it did. My mite problem is gone and hasn't come back since. Don't let it get as out of control as I did if you see mites. Keep this stuff on hand.

From shopping, to delivery, to the use of product, this represents another solid Amazon purchase. The product works solidly and is properly described.My preference is to use pure organic; yet this product is very effective with a tiny amount of Spinosad. Spinosad is considered a natural substance from a soil bacterium. Is it considered to be non toxic to humans; breaks down quickly in the environment and soil, but slowly in water, and very effective against many problem insects .Consider: Spinosad shown toxic to bees until dried, but not a problem when product is dry, It breaks down quickly in environment overall, yet slow in water and known to be toxic to eastern oysters; spiinosad showed adverse affect on earthworms described in a 2014 University of Oregon study* from what I interpreted of the study literature.As a longtime dog and cat caretaker, I've been especially tuned to watch for products used daily in my home and yard ever since my awesome Tabby cat had a severe reaction to a nationally known brand of flea medicine in early 2007. I encourage all to consider and weigh both the costs and benefits of products and the effects on our and their environment.*Bunch, T. R.; Bond, C.; Buhl, K.; Stone, D. 2014.

This came in a box, stuffed with useless brown paper......the top of the spray nozzle was all cracked so did not work. Luckily, I had an old bottle of the same product that was almost empty so I was able to use the sprayer off of that one. I think the top of this bottle should have been wrapped in bubble wrap to protect it during shipping!Product itself is awesome and I highly recommend!!

I have a lemon tree that has those tiny red scab bugs. I've tried everything to control them. Had another nursery suggest this product, and finally! I can definitely tell the bugs are decreasing. I'm still on maintenance and spraying once a week as I see the bugs but super happy to find something that actually works. Especially since it can be used with fruit trees.

This stuff has no smell, does not harm plants whatsoever and most of all it gets rid of ALL thrips and caterpillars. I use once every five days, three times total. It is not as effective on aphids or spider mites.

My beautiful indoor Monstera came down with a thrip infestation that was slowly turning leaves yellow then black. I’d tried washing them away with dishsoap and even rubbing alcohol, which slowed the infestation, but they returned with a vengeance. This spray wiped out the problem overnight!I’ve since used it on my outdoor tomato plant for leaf miners and just used it on an indoor cat palm & snake plant with mealy-bug issues. Planning to give it a go on a spider mite infested plant too!There is a slight smell to it that almost reminds me of kombucha? But it wears off after a day or 2. I take my indoor plants outside to treat them to avoid getting the spray on my floors or walls.

Are you tired of trying combinations of hydrogen peroxide, Castile soap, neem oil, and isopropyl alcohol that every other YouTuber recommends? The issue with these suggestions is that they only work for pests like spider mites or aphids. The so-called perfect organic pest solution is not as effective as advertised. Thrips seem to mock me whenever I use the popular mixtures from YouTube. However, I’ve found a product that is a game-changer for anyone worn out from battling plant pests. It really works! I have treated my collection multiple times with this spray, and I have successfully brought my thrip infestation under control. I rated it four stars because of the price, one bottle barely covers the plants in my Ikea Milsbo cabinet.
