Bonide Pyrethrin Garden Insect Spray Concentrate
Protect your garden with fast-acting, botanical insect control using Bonide Pyrethrin Garden Spray Concentrate. This easy-to-mix concentrate is formulated with pyrethrins, a naturally derived insecticide extracted from chrysanthemum flowers, to provide quick knockdown of a wide range of damaging insects. Designed for use on vegetables, fruits, herbs, flowers, ornamental plants, trees, and shrubs, it offers dependable protection without leaving an objectionable residue when used as directed. Because it can be applied up to the day of harvest on listed edible crops, it’s an excellent choice for gardeners who want effective insect control throughout the growing season.
Bonide Pyrethrin Garden Spray Concentrate kills insects on contact, helping to stop infestations before they cause significant damage. It controls a long list of common garden pests, including aphids, Japanese beetles, cabbage loopers, flea beetles, leafhoppers, Mexican bean beetles, webworms, and many more. It can also be used to help control spotted lanternflies when applied according to label directions, making it a valuable addition to your pest management program as this invasive insect continues to spread. Whether you’re protecting a vegetable garden, maintaining flowering annuals and perennials, or caring for ornamental trees and shrubs, this versatile concentrate provides broad-spectrum control for many of the insects that feed on foliage, flowers, and edible crops.
The concentrated formula mixes easily with water and can be applied using a hand sprayer, watering can, or other low-pressure sprayer for thorough coverage of plant surfaces. For best results, apply when insects first appear and thoroughly wet both the upper and lower surfaces of leaves where pests often hide and feed. Regular monitoring and repeat applications as directed on the product label can help maintain healthy, productive plants all season long.
Ideal for home gardeners looking for an effective botanical insecticide, Bonide Pyrethrin Garden Spray Concentrate combines the fast knockdown of pyrethrins with the convenience of a concentrated formula that treats a wide variety of plants. Whether you’re growing fresh vegetables for the kitchen, maintaining colorful flower beds, or protecting ornamental shrubs from damaging insects, this versatile spray provides reliable control while fitting easily into your regular garden care routine.
Application Tips:
- How to Apply: Mix with water according to the product label and spray thoroughly on all plant surfaces, including the undersides of leaves, until evenly covered. Keep out of reach of children and pets until sprays have dried.
- When to Apply: Apply at the first sign of insect activity and repeat as directed on the product label if pests persist. Avoid spraying when beneficial pollinators are actively foraging, as pyrethrins are toxic to bees and other beneficial insects upon direct contact.
- Best Time: Apply in the early morning or evening when temperatures are cooler and beneficial pollinators are less active. Avoid spraying during the hottest part of the day or when bees are actively foraging.
- Tip: Complete coverage is essential, as pyrethrins work by direct contact with insects. Be sure to thoroughly coat areas where pests are feeding or hiding, including the undersides of leaves.
