Multicrop EcoBug Organic 1L: Insect and Mite Spray for Veggies, Fruit and Herbs

Multicrop EcoBug Organic is a 100% organic, ready-to-use insect and mite spray for the edible garden and beyond. It's an insecticidal soap, formulated from potassium salts of fatty acids (8.5g/L) in a vegetable oil base, and it works by coating soft-bodied pests so they suffocate and dry out. Because it's NASAA certified organic (3264M) and has no withholding period, you can spray and still harvest your veggies, fruit and herbs straight away.

It controls a wide range of common garden pests, including aphids, leafhoppers, mites, thrips, whitefly, mealybug, scale and fungus gnats. It's suitable for vegetables, fruit and herbs, as well as ornamentals, pot plants, indoor and outdoor plants, and fruit and nut trees, which makes it a genuinely all-round organic option for the home garden and nursery.

As a new-generation, broad-spectrum natural spray, it's a gentler alternative to harsh chemical insecticides that can linger in the soil. The 1L trigger bottle is ready to use with no mixing, so you can treat pests the moment you spot them.

How to Use

• Shake well and spray when insects are first noticed, spraying the pests directly

• Coat all surfaces to the point of run-off, including the undersides of leaves where pests shelter

• Apply in the morning or evening when temperatures are cooler, not in the heat of the day or full sun

• Reapply 5 to 7 days later, or as necessary, while pests are present

• Repeat applications help keep infestations under control

Getting the Best From It

• It's a contact spray, so pests must be sprayed directly; anything you miss won't be treated, which is why thorough coverage and leaf undersides matter

• Spray in the cool of the day to avoid leaf stress and to keep the spray wet on the pests for longer

• Catch infestations early, when pest numbers are low and easier to knock back

• Because it breaks down quickly and leaves no lasting residue, it can be reapplied as needed through the season

• Test on a small area first if you're unsure how a particular plant will respond
