Know before you buy
Mosquito Bits contain a biological bacterium called Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis). When larvae ingest the bits, the bacterium releases a toxin that specifically targets their digestive systems, killing them within 24 hours without harming other wildlife or pets.
Yes, they are highly effective for fungus gnats. You can either sprinkle the bits directly onto the surface of your potting soil or mix them into the soil before planting to disrupt the gnat life cycle.
Because the active ingredient is a naturally occurring bacterium that targets specific insect larvae, it is considered environmentally sound. However, as with any pesticide, it should be kept out of reach of children and pets and used according to the label instructions.
No, Mosquito Bits are designed specifically to target the larval stage of mosquitoes. They will not kill or repel flying adult mosquitoes.
For ongoing control in standing water, you should reapply the product every 7 to 14 days. The frequency may vary depending on the water conditions and the rate of larval re-infestation.
