Brandt Ecotec Plus offers sustainable organic insect and mite control in a powerful, oil-based formula. It works quickly and effectively to coat and suffocate pests on contact and continues to act as a repellent after the contacted insects have died. This dual mode of action provides control for all stages of insect development.

- NOP (National Organic Program) compliant
- Compatible with most conventional adjuvants and fertilizers

For full effectiveness, spray Brandt Ecotec Plus when pests first appear (do not wait until crops are heavily infested) and apply repeatedly. Take care to cover all parts of the plant uniformly and completely. Reapply as needed to maintain desired level of control. There are no restrictions on how many applications can be made per season, but there is a 5-day minimum interval required between applications.
