I have used this in the past but had run out and had neglected my lemon trees for the past few months. It really works on spider mites and scale insects. I wash all the leaves carefully and use the spray and they are clear. Important to me that this is an environmentally friendly product and throughly recommend it.
Used to kill some freaky little flies that would come off our plants. Did the job nicely.
Was impressed by how much it did boost my foliage plants certainly an improvement in the leaves , unsure how it would work on bugs as I didn’t have any! Would if given 5 stars but the connection from the spray to the body of the bottle did leak a little when I used the spray but it wouldn’t put me off buying again maybe it was just a dodgy bottle . Would recommend anyway .
Very happy that this product seems to keep my orchids happy.
Read reviews, followed instructions and a really bad spider mite problem solved, plants look so healthy and doing well.
I’m using this on herbs as you can harvest edible leaves not long after. Does seem to knock back the bugs when I use it, would definitely buy again.
I’ve had bug problems for months now. I’ve tried all different sprays and none seem to work, and one spray almost killed my chilli plants!
However after using this spray on 2 occasions, I’ve noticed less bugs and the leaves on some of my plants look healthier.
So I’d say this spray does work, I’m guessing you’ll have to give it some time to do it’s magic.
This product is amazing however there was very little in the spray bottle so I would highly recommend the concentrate version which is much cheaper for what you get.
Had a ‘stressed’ bonsai tree, this product really revived it.
Recommended !
Generally OK, but have to keep on using to kill the bugs, if I use too much tree plant doesn’t like it. I would prefer if it misted as it comes out quite fast so drenched a small direct area more than I need. Not that easy to use due to the nozzle, smaller holes would maybe help?
Ready to use, easy to use and does just what it says on the bottle, kills the bugs and makes the plants glow with life. Used it in my allotment greenhouses, always have trouble with bugs eating my peppers. Brilliant will definitely be buying more.
I guess it’s a fine product but loads of bugs about this year and it is a little expensive
Easy to use – need a few weeks to see how effective
I ordered this for the greenfly on plants and it has been successful and I am pleased with it and recommend
I bought this to get rid of mealy bugs on some succulents I had been given. It did the trick within 2 treatments.
Excellent product.
Have used this spray just the once on some patio size fruit trees, mainly cherry and a gooseberry bush, seems to be working no more caterpillars on the gooseberry don’t know what the bug was on the cherry tree but it seems fine now.
This product really works on roses veg anything and is not chemical totally recommend gets rid of aphids in one spray quite amazing this is my third year of buying and what a difference I have loads of roses
i use it on my orchids, it keeps them free of bugs and feeds them at the same time.
Works well gives plants a boost plus protection against most bugs very good …
This stuff is great. After trying different ways of dealing with pesky bugs, including more natural methods, my husband saw good things about this so decided to give it a go. Our calathea makoyana, string of dolphins, orchid and tradescantia had a case of mealy bugs but by using this spray we managed to save them all, thankfully.
Seems to be doing the job but having to be quite heavy handed
It works and is biodegradable so what else to say? I have been using it for years.
Good stuff got rid of the bugs on roses and made them grow more than ever..turned up fast to..all good would use em agai
I keep bonsai and one of the trees leaved was always covered in what I thought was sap, it wasn’t until one of my friends took a look and said it may be spider mites. Got this the same day and within a few weeks of use problem solved! If I only I knew sooner!
I’ve used this product before so just reordered. It’s made my houseplants look very healthy and strong and has encouraged growth, helighly recommend
Invigorating tree leaves brings a lot of pleasure especially when you missed winter spraying this stuff can be applied frequently without worry. Get some.
This product seems to have worked but a bit slow on heavy infestatio
Excellent product, reliable and perfect. I used it on my bonsai soil which had developed a whitish mould that would come back even after scraping it off. One treatment did the job. The same can be said for other indoor plants which had bugs or bacterial infection, all gone.
Product is great. It does however struggle with thripes and red spidermites though. I use other products for that.
I would advise buying the concentrate version of SBPI, it’s double the price but will last much longer. This spray bottle also leaks when you spray. I poured it into another spray bottle.
The product is not stick or
Scented. Good value for money, only downfall is the spray mechanism leaks.
Was sceptical about whether this would work… but it did! Much better than the big brand version I got previously which seems to do nothing. Highly recommended and will be buying this brand from now on.
This is excellent! I use it as a bug killer and preventative. I tend to use this in my misting routine with my plants to prevent bugs and it has worked great. There has been the odd occasion where I have forgotten for a couple of weeks because I’ve been working night shifts, and found the odd thrip however, this works a treat. 10/10 recommend!
I was dismayed to find all my orchid plants had mealy bugs, so frantically looked for a solution. This looked good and it does seem to work, the plants looked healthier too with glossy leaves – but those little blighters hide in the cracks and keep coming back. At this price I can’t justify the cost of keep buying it, it would be cheaper to buy new plants. Just one other observation – the spray bottle looks a lot like other household sprays and one day I found I was using limescale remover by mistake. Plant seems to have survived after a quick soaking.
Great value for money and solved the aphid problem my bonsai’s had.
Treated my calethea’s spider mite infection well after several careful treatments, making sure to wipe both top and bottom of each leaf with a cloth dampened by this spray, and then spraying over all the leaves afterwards
I was highly impressed using the SB! I bought it to kill thrips for my orchids. I used one and two days later I noticed growing roots, leaves and buds. It multiplied orchids immunity after stress with pests ( I think). I am glad I found this SB and I know now how I can help to my orchids quickly to grow. However, it did not kill all thrips. Maybe this is good just for anti pests profilactic .
I like that it’s organic and feeds the plants, but having used half of it we still have whitefly around the plants in our conservatory. Considerably less spiteful though, Which is good, but had hoped for total eradication. Still, no toxic chemicals so I can breathe easy. So OK on the whole.
This is pretty good – revives any plant in whatever state. I now use it for my orchids
My curry leaf plant all but died after red spider mite infestation. Every single leaf and branch fell off, but within 6 months it fully recovered. I spotted the webs appearing again and sprayed this on straight away – no more webs & plant looks just as healthy as before! Phew!!
Solved my mealybug problem for one of my plants and its leaves are looking quite nice now too.
I order like last resort as I was keep buying thing which doesn’t help me with that luttle sticky bug on my lovely Rose. In first picture is like 1 week or less distance from the second one. When I use this solution I feel so sorry for the little blooms as I think they will die after this treatment. But instead that they become joy of my garden. I trying to save him from this bugs for 2 years and all things I buy ( I try even prepare a solution for it) ends up in leaving him as food for these bugs.
Not anymore now….im so happy.Anothe good thing is you not have to go in the garden every morning and evening to spray it over, 1-2 treatment will be enough,so you will have solution left for anything else-hopefully no need anymore. I would definitely recommend!
Did a good job with a mealy bug out break but was not in any way effective at dealing with fungus gnats.
Purchased this to kill spider mites on my herbs, but they are still there after two weeks use, and it has made the leaves curl on my Thyme plant. – UPDATE – after three weeks the bugs have all gone and leaves are healthy. Considering its organic, then this is good. Just takes time to work, so please be patient if using for first time. Mine eventually worked.
Very pleased with this product. I don’t have flies anymore around my plants
It really work I ‘ve used it for 3 months for all types of indoor pla
Seems to be killing off the bugs but I can’t comment on if it’s doing my bonsai any good yet.
Looks like it may be doing the job. Bit early to conclude.
Worked really well with an aphid infestation. Sprayed vigorously once a day and after the second day they were gone and haven’t returned. Very happy!
Good to use indoors to give plants protection and some feed
Does what it says. Used this for my indoor cactus for whitefly.
I mass murdered an aphid infestation on a rose bush – very satisfying. My mildew problem with chili plants I’m overwintering was also eliminated. Very impressed with it so far. Just as a side not there’s no noticeable odour.
Gives a nice shine to leaves and seems to keep red mites at bay.
Used on cacti with an infestation of mealy bugs, worked really well and doesn’t harm the cacti!
Ive only used it on indoor plants It’s a great growth stimulater with the added advantage of bug killer. I think it’s fantastic
Finally invested in some SB after hearing its praises sung left right and centre in the planty communities. Now I understand the hype! Great for treating and preventing mealy bugs (reason I bought it) – haven’t had any problems with the little s***s since using this – highly recommend!
A product that does really work. I was very impressed with it in the Conservatory and in the Greenhouse.
I was recommended to use this product it is very environmentally friendly.
Brilliant stuff had my first ever spider mite issue and it was killing some of my oldest and fav houseplants after a fortnight of using this I can see so much improvement
Not only that but all the leafs are thicker and healthier and more vibrant in colou
I’ve been using this for a quite and have to say the small slugs are still nibbling away …
The product was fine but the delivery was Crap ,thrown over the gate & broken .
For a long while I had been trying to find something which would kill white bugs on orchids without damaging the plant. Nothing worked and the bugs were spreading. One use of Growth Technology appears to have eliminated the bugs whilst the plants flourish
I bought this to protect succulents from various bugs. It worked for mealy bugs and aphids….as a side effect I can honestly say that since spraying this on my young succulent plants once a week they have really grown on quickly and look amazing….a noticeable difference since using this
Works very well, even on mealy bug, my orchids seem to really like it.
Excellent product confirmed by two growers. Excellent service. Many thanks.
I had a bad infestation of black fly on a pear tree so I used this to spray on the affected leaves. It worked well and there has been no return of black flies although they infected nearby plants. I also used it on top of young peppers that were overwhelmed with aphids and they are now clear, there is the odd one that appears on back of leaves but no damage to plants. I used it only for a short period but so far it seems to be doing what it says. I would recommend the use of rubber gloves when applying as it is easy to get on hands and it is irritating the skin.
So good I have ordered it again….I like that it is animal friendly…no odour either.
Really good product does what it “says it does.very happy.
I use this on my bonsai trees weekly to keep their leaves in good condition and to keep them pest free. Since using this product ive noticed a lot more vigor with my bonsai’s leaves, there is a lovely shine and just scream healthy. I highly recommend to all bonsai owners to use once a week, and Amazon has the best price around I could find.
I wanted to try this for mealy bug. I have a Hoya which had a severe infestation, all over it. SPBI appears, at the moment, to have cleared it completely. I’m even inclined to try Phalenopsis orchids again. I’d given up growing them because of rampant mealy bug which I couldn’t control. SBPI gives me the hope that I might be able to control such an infestation.
Thank you fast p&p well happy can now complain one bi
Surprisingly, this seems to have dealt pretty well with a simultaneous infestation of scale insects and red spider mites on my 5ft orange tree which I overwinter indoors. I have used fatty acid type sprays before but they never seemed to be very effective. This nuked the mites in the first application, and by the third the scales were going dark and falling off by themselves. Impressed!
Work very well. I had to use 2 bottles in the end
Bought for pansies – seems ideal as also plant invigorater as well as sorting out problem.
Brilliant product! Just be patient. Had a load of aphids on my Roses and in 2 days they were gone.
Definitely recommend.
Only been using for a few weeks but already my bonsai looks much healthie
I had received a Bonsai tree which was practically covered in tiny little white insects less than a month from purchase. This product was recommended and sold by the company that provided the tree for twice the price on Amazon. Did it work? For me yes and my tree is starting to grow new leaves (though this may have more to do with acclimatising to my home) so I can recommend this product as it did kill the insects and have used it on another house plant.
I picked off all the chewed up leaves off my potted trees, sprayed them with this product early morning before the sun was on them.
The next day no signs of any more leaves being munched on plus the leaves look a lot healthier.
It’s been a week and every thing still looks good.
I’ve ordered another bottle of this stuff which should arrive tomorrow for my greenhouse plants 🙂
