Use Insecticidal Soap to control aphids, mealybugs, spider mites, thrips, whiteflies, and other common garden pests. Insecticidal Soap uses potassium fatty acids derived from plant oils to control soft-bodied insects. It works by breaking open their cell membranes causing them to dehydrate. The best part is, Insecticidal Soap will not harm beneficial insects such as ladybugs or bees, so it is safe to use outdoors in the garden! Made with organic coconut, sunflower, and olive oil. 16oz bottle
