Plant Soap is is an ideal tool for combating Mealybugs, Thrips, Aphids, Whiteflies, Spider Mites and Scale Insects.
Plant Soap spray consists of 100% natural substances and does not contain any poison. Plant Soap provides an easy and natural way to combat insect pests, without harming plants, bees, birds and mammals.
Spraying Plant Soap ensures house plant leaves will be cleansed of any lingering honeydew, insect skins, dust or sooty molds.
Shake well before use. Spray at a distance of 20cm from the leaves, in areas that have been affected by insect pests or diseases. Spray leaves thoroughly so that they are well moistened, ensuring the underside of the leaves are also sprayed.
Avoid spraying onto flowers or fragile plants. Always test one leaf before treating the entire plant.
Plant Soap provides the necessary preparatory treatment for the control of insect pests but you can ensure complete protection by following up your spraying with applications of natural predators.
Dragonfli's predators will get to work immediately, cleaning up leftover areas of infestations that were difficult to reach with the spray. Simply clean the plant with Plant Soap, wait until the liquid has dried completely and then apply the natural predators specific to your infestation.
Please do not spray the Plant Soap directly onto any of the predators as this will be harmful to these beneficial insects.
If you are applying Plant Soap after have applied predators please wait at least 4 weeks before spraying.
If applying the soap before the use of natural predators, predators can be applied as soon as the soap spray has dried.
Our website contains abundant information on which predators are best to apply against specific infestations and in specific conditions, but to get you started here's a brief guide to which predators are most effective against common house plant pests:
- For Mealybug infestations use Cryptolaemus larvae
- For Thrip infestations use Amblyseius swirskii
- For Aphid infestations use Ladybird larvae
- For Whitefly infestations use Encarsia formosa
- For Spider Mite infestations use Phytoseiulus persimilis
- For Scale Insect infestations use Rhyzobius lophanthae
Plant Soap can be used all year round. Use the spray as an effective pre-treatment before applying natural predators.
