Safer® Insecticidal Soap is an organic pest control that is totally biodegradable as well as environmentally safe. It works on a wide variety of insects: aphids, whiteflies, spider mites, scales, leafhoppers, grasshoppers, earwigs and others
Because Safer’s Insecticidal Soap is derived from all-natural potassium salts, it is OMRI listed.
It is a contact killer so it must be sprayed directly onto the insect pests. Insecticidal Soap works by smothering and desiccating. We recommend spraying in the early morning or in the evening when temperatures are below 85°, be sure to spray the undersides of leaves.
Hard water reduces the soap's effectiveness, use water from your softened house water or your rain barrel. Safer Insecticidal Soap can be used on houseplants, roses, flowers, vegetables, fruits, ornamentals, shrubs, trees or greenhouse plantings.
