Use the lower rate for routine care, cleaning, light pest activity, and sensitive plants. Use the higher rate for heavy infestations. Always mix thoroughly to ensure an even solution.

Optional: To improve emulsion in hard water, add one drop of mild, plant-safe liquid soap to the spray solution. Mix thoroughly before application. Use the prepared spray solution within 24 hours.

Application Instructions

  • Foliage Spray: Test a small area of the plant and wait 48 hours for reaction before spraying the entire plant. Spray all plant surfaces evenly but not dripping. Avoid spraying in direct sunlight or when temperatures exceed 85°F.
  • Leaf Shine: Leave liquid on leaves for 3–5 minutes before wiping off with a soft cloth.

Preparation to Use as a Soil Drench

Dilution: Mix 1/4 to 1 teaspoon (1.25–5.0 mL) of concentrate per gallon of water. Apply 1–2 cups of solution per gallon of soil, ensuring the root zone is saturated.
