Safe for Use Throughout the Growing Season:

Easy to Mix and Apply:

Mixing instructions are clear and simple:

• 1% Solution: Mix 2 teaspoons of concentrate with 1 quart (32 fl. oz.) of water, or 1 fl. oz. of concentrate with 3 quarts (96 fl. oz.) of water.
• 2% Solution: Mix 4 teaspoons of concentrate with 1 quart (32 fl. oz.) of water, or 2 fl. oz. of concentrate with 3 quarts (96 fl. oz.) of water.

Always shake well before each use and stir or shake the diluted spray frequently during application. Apply using a hand-held trigger sprayer, hand sprayer, or backpack sprayer, thoroughly wetting the insect pests and plant surfaces. Do not spray to the point of runoff or dripping. A 1% solution is typically sufficient for soft-bodied pests like aphids and mites. Repeat treatment in 1-2 weeks if necessary.
