This is effectively an environmentally friendly pesticide made from natural ingredients which is totally biodegradable. It has a three-way benefits. It controls mildew and other fungal infections. It acts as a foliar feed to strengthen plant growth. It attacks a wide variety of insects on contact, simply by gumming up their wings and breathing tubes.
The 250ml bottle goes a long way - it will dilute 10 to 1 to make up 25 litres of solution.
Use SBI to control and reduce delicate sap-feeding pests including:
Aphid (multiple species), whitefly, spider mite, mealybugs, hard scale, soft scale, bay sucker psyllids, and powdery mildew. To gain control you will need to use it every other day for a week or so.
Once pest numbers are under control, try to use it almost every other week and wet the plant thoroughly including the undersides of leaves where the aphids and crawlers like to lurk. Repeat applications are necessary because it works by "suffocating" the smaller insects and there will always be the danger of more hatching out or flying in to replace them. You can even "dunk" small plants upside-down in SBI if the aphids are hiding in the flower buds.
