Kills thrips + residual, but a little goes a long way
A HUGE thank you to the previous reviewer who noted that a little goes a long way with this stuff and that you CAN mess your plants up. You saved me a lot of heartache. I've had a monster thrip infestation that predatory mites haven't been able to control (Soestus thrips). What really hooked me in with this was the promise that it offered "residual control". I was doubtful but after spraying a few plants a few weeks ago I've seen no more thrips or larve on them (inspected with magnifying glass) despite being back in a plant room with thrips. I'm now in the process of spraying all of my plants. Be safe - take the plants into a contained area and let them dry per the instructions. Spray lightly. Well tolerated by all of my philos, alocasias, a banana Musa, calatheas - basically everything except scindapsus. Not sure if I oversprayed trying to get all of the leaves or if they're just sensitive. I plan to spray my complete collection once every two to three months to totally eradicate these nasty little jerseys. I'm hopeful this will end my 18-month war.
Excellent. Way better than spray cans
This spray is great on tropicals. Love that it's in a spray bottle vs can. Quick shipping.

Stuff just works, and did not hurt the ladies one bit, I always apply foliar insecticides just after lights out for optimum efficiency and to not have to worry about burning etc. this coupled with nematodes is a sure fire well to eradicate those little sap suckers!
