Safer Brand Garden Insect Soap

This concentrate is formulated to control soft-bodied insects, including aphids, mealybugs, spider mites, whiteflies, and earwigs. It works by breaking down the protective outer shell of these pests, causing them to dehydrate.

Yes, it is safe for use on fruits and vegetables. Because it is OMRI-listed for organic gardening, there is no pre-harvest interval required, meaning you can apply it and harvest your produce on the same day after a thorough rinse.

The 16-ounce bottle of concentrate yields up to 6 gallons of ready-to-use spray when mixed according to the instructions. This makes it a cost-effective and space-saving option for gardeners with larger areas to treat.

When used as directed, it is gentle on plants. However, as with any insecticidal soap, it is best to avoid applying it during the hottest part of the day or in direct, intense sunlight to prevent potential leaf burn.

No, it does not leave a persistent toxic residue. The active ingredient, potassium salts of fatty acids, breaks down naturally in the environment, making it a suitable choice for organic gardening practices.
