NATRIA Insecticidal Soap, Ready-to-Use, 24 Oz

I wasn’t sure what kind of bug was eating my rose bushes, but they looked horrible and were slowly dying. I sprayed this on the rose bushes and about a week later, I could already tell the difference! The leaves looked healthier and the plant started growing bigger and bigger. Really easy to spray on the plant.

Works well.

I much prefer this insecticidal soap over the neem oil. It works well to treat and prevent, it doesn't harm my plants, and IT DOESN'T STINK. There are two nozzle options- stream or spray. I use stream to get down in the the soil; spray for the foliage.To prevent outbreaks- When I dust off my indoor plants, I'll spritz a small amount of the insecticide onto a microfiber cloth, then gently wipe down the leaves and stems. I do it after the sun sets, to avoid possible leaf burn.For houseplants (specifically spidermites)- The day before treatment, I spray the plant down with water, using strong water pressure to knock off any mites. The next day, I spray the entire plant and soil with the insecticide. I then use an old makeup brush to spread the treatment on the tops and undersides of the leaves, as well as every inch of stem, especially focusing on crevices. (This will better ensure you're removing the webs). After that I use a bamboo stake to aerate the soil and spread the solution more thoroughly. (Again, I leave the plant out of intense sunlight). I didn't see any spider mites following the first treatment, but I repeated after 2 weeks to be safe.For outdoor potted plants- I simply spray them down at night, leaves, stem and soil. It's helped greatly with pesky earwigs that munch on leaves and blooms.

I tried around 7 different products to tackle a mealybug infestation that happened to my plants when I accidentally brought an infected plant in my home. They were everywhere and no matter what I did they would come back in a week or two since they were even in the soil.This was my final shot before I tossed out all the plants and with careful time it worked. I started by spraying the plant directly to make sure it didn't harm my plant, when that seem to start clearing up the infestation, I started spraying down the entire plant and soil every other days. Without 2 weeks, I stopped seeing any more visible mealybugs. I continued doing it twice a week for about 6 weeks and completely took out the infestation, luckily it took a few months but all my plants recovered.If you have tried other pesticides and it didn't work, give this one a try. It takes a bit of time, but eventually resolved my infestation.

I've been using this for 18mo with mediocre results. It kinda helps with the indoor gnat situation, but at the risk of my plants' health. I've been making it work, but now I literally cannot make it work. The hose and cap for this latest delivery do not fit each other. I usually keep the old bottle until I receive the new one but apparently I did not do that this time. I will need to find another way to use the product. I would ask for a replacement cap, but given what I've read, it doesn't seem worth the fight. Debating if I purchase this again..

The first time I used it I sprayed my plants and the bugs were still hanging around. The second time I added it to the water when it was time to water my plants and that did the trick, bugs went away completely.

I have been using all kinds of different sprays for my indoor water plants, and for my balcony plants, herbs and tomatoes, peppers for a year twice a week with no results unfortunately. Even diatomaceous earth doesn’t work! These aphids even occupied my basil and mint which is considered not tasty for them. Ants are bringing them on the stems and feeding on them. No luck with mealybugs, they killed my peperomia, Chinese money plants, attacking my alocasias, succulents, monsteras. The white flies only attacking my peppers also with no knows cure except the systemic option which I can’t use for the crops but I definitely will try for my houseplants since I ran out of options.

My neem plant had scales and scales are very hard to get rid of. I started spraying the plant with it and saw visible control in just one treatment. Scales and other insects are under the leaves so be sure to spray underneath.
