Targeted Pest Control:

• Soil Treatment for Grubs: In addition to being sprayed on plants, BeetleGONE! can be mixed into or sprayed directly onto potting soil or garden soil to control beetle grubs and prevent damage at the root level.

Organic Certification:

• OMRI Listed: This product is approved for organic use and is certified by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI), making it ideal for organic gardening and production.

Environmentally Friendly:

• Safe for Use Around Pollinators: Unlike many chemical pesticides, BeetleGONE! It does not threaten bees, butterflies, and other essential pollinators, allowing you to maintain a healthy garden ecosystem.
• Biodegradable and Non-Toxic: BeetleGONE! It breaks down naturally in the environment, leaving no harmful residues behind.

How It Works

BeetleGONE! contains Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), a naturally occurring bacterium that targets specific pests. When ingested by adult beetles, weevils, and borers, the bacteria disrupt their digestive systems, leading to their death while leaving beneficial insects unharmed. This selective action ensures that only the harmful pests are eliminated, making it an environmentally responsible choice for pest management.

Application Instructions

1. Preparation:
• Mix the appropriate amount of BeetleGONE! Tlc into water as directed on the label. Ensure the solution is well-mixed for even distribution during spraying.

1. Spraying on Plants:
• Apply the mixture directly to the plant's foliage, ensuring thorough coverage on both the top and underside of the leaves, as pests often hide there.
• Apply early or late afternoon to prevent rapid evaporation and ensure the best results.

1. Soil Treatment:
• To control beetle grubs, mix the product into the soil or spray it directly onto the potting or garden soil. This will prevent beetle larvae from causing root damage.

1. Frequency:
• Reapply every 7-14 days as needed, especially during the peak beetle activity season. To maintain effectiveness, reapply after heavy rainfall or overhead irrigation.

1. Storage:
