EcoSmart Garden Insect Killer Spray has been developed to control several common problem insects. Specifically, it uses a proprietary blend of essential oils to kill on contact and repel aphids, cabbage loopers, cabbageworm larvae and spider mites. The oils in this blend are very toxic to insects; they target and block the processes by which an insect regulates heart rate, metabolism, movement and behavior. Because the affected neuro-receptors are specific to insects, this product will not harm mammals, birds or fish. This environmentally friendly and pleasant-smelling product can be used on garden fruits and vegetables (including melons, berries and nut trees) and ornamental plants (including flowers, shrubs and small trees).
