Saved my garlic from leek moths.

19 days ago
Understandably, it takes a few applications of BTK to control them and their damage, including after every rain event, but it does work. Leek moths are new to our area, and for next year I'm considering just covering them all with low-tunnels with insect netting. For now, this saved this season's harvest. Too bad they didn't offer it in 1 litre jugs instead of these small quantities. I grow a lot of garlic, so admittedly it was expensive to walk in and purchase 10 little bottles.

Kills Boxwood Caterpillars

20 days ago
Worked extremely well on my 4'x 3' boxwood. I eyeballed the mix and used a 1 L spray bottle, 3-ish mL. I did it at night quick just to get started as the boxwood caterpillar jerks ate the majority of my leaves and were everywhere, also used Dock Doom Diatomaceous Earth. There was a few the next day but after day 2 they were gone.

Q: Is it safe for cherry tomatoes? Do I need to wash the tomatoes before eating?

a year ago
3 Answers
  • A: The following is from the site of Government of B. C., Canada: Is it safe? Btk has no known toxic effects on humans, other mammals, plants, birds, fish, or honeybees or other beneficial insects, except moth and butterfly caterpillars. After more than 30 years of Btk use and research around the world, Canada, the United States and most other countries where Bt products are currently registered consider it safe and have declared it exempt from pesticide residue tolerances on food crops. Consuming Btk - Btk is used to control pest caterpillars in the production of many food crops. Even organic food growers use this biological insecticide. Because it is not toxic to humans, Btk can be used right up to the time of harvest. Nevertheless, any sprayed fruits or vegetables should be washed before they are eaten.

Q: Does this work on carpet beetle larvae?

4 years ago
3 Answers
  • A: No, look up strains of bacteria you need, or 'predator insects' like types of nematodes for the specific species you need to reduce. BTK only kills specific species of caterpillars. There are other strains for other insect control.

Q: I want to apply to some bushes. Wondering how much time I should allow for the spraying before a rain?

  • A: I don’t recall what the package said, but I’d suggest you don’t want it to rain immediately after application. 24 hours+ for sure.

Q: Since the LDD exists as a Caterpillar for about four weeks and six moults and consumes the foliage of just about everything how can you say this product is not designed to kill them?

4 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: The trick is to spray BTK on leaves before the caterpillars emerge so the young, small caterpillars eat leaves when they are small. It is not effective on larger caterpillars.  When you do that you will see parts of leaves consumed but these young caterpillars will die.

Q: Will this product work on potato bugs?

5 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: As far as I know no, since it works only on caterpillar digestive systems--It is a highly specific natural insecticide. Potato beetles do not have this life stage and attack potatoes as adults. Check out the following link https://www.thespruce.com/controlling-colorado-potato-beetle-organic-methods-2539840
