What customers say
This concentrate is highly effective for tough pest problems where other solutions fall short, offering reliable eradication for serious gardening challenges. Its concentrated formula provides excellent value, yielding many applications. While experienced gardeners value its guaranteed results, the strong, lingering odor is a significant drawback, requiring careful handling. Some users also note concerns regarding safety and potential impact on beneficial insects or plants if not mixed properly. It is best suited for those prioritizing powerful performance over a potentially challenging application experience.
