Bonide Systemic Granules Insect Control

Once applied to the soil and watered in, the granules are absorbed by the plant's root system. The active ingredient travels through the plant's tissues, making the plant itself toxic to insects that feed on it.

While the product is highly effective for houseplants, please note that it is labeled for outdoor use sites. Always check your local regulations and ensure the product is used in accordance with the EPA-approved label instructions.

A single application provides protection for up to 8 weeks, or 1,920 hours. This systemic approach is particularly effective at safeguarding new growth that appears after the initial treatment.

No, this product is not formulated to be safe for pets or children. You should keep treated plants in an area that is inaccessible to them until the granules have been fully worked into the soil and the area is dry.

It is designed to target a wide range of common garden and houseplant pests, including fungus gnats, mealybugs, whiteflies, thrips, aphids, and ants.

No, the formula is completely odor-free. Because it is applied as granules directly to the soil, it also avoids the mess and drift associated with traditional liquid sprays.
