    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 .

    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.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGenerally 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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersI 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.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersI 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.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersI 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!

    After 2 years, I finally sort it!!

    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.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersI 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.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI 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.

    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!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI 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.

    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 🙂
