Does this contain pyrethrins or other chemical insecticides? I know that BT is the active ingredient, but the inactive ingredients are not specified.

Inert ingredients are a trade secret and are rarely if ever listed. The only thing listed as an inactive ingredient in the insert is petroleum distillate. You may want to contact the company for a more detailed list.

"bacilius Thuringeinsis, sibsp. kurstaki, strain ABTS-3-5-1 solids, spores, and insecticidal toxins at 12.74%, OTHER INGREDIENTS at 87.26%.........straight from the bottle. works great on my tomatoe plants. I had these dam worms that would eat the flowers... its an organic remedy that works fairly well. otherwise use a misquito net over the plants 24/7. The moths that lay the eggs for these caterpillars come in at night time.

no just the water it was mixed with. bt is bacillus thuringiensis which coats the leafs, then when the bug eats the plants leafs it gets stomach rot and stops eating.

Don't know the exact chemistry butI do not believe it contains insecticides which is one of the reasons I purchased it. The active ingredient is as you said is a bacilus (BT) which attacks and kills the larvae of several kinds of catapillers. I can tell you it absolutely works on the Sweet Broom moth larvae. In less than a week a total infestation was gone and healthy growth resumed. I think it is recommended for every two or three weeks but the concentration is 1-2 tbs/gallon so it goes a long way. Also seems to be effective on tomato worms/larvae. Good luck!

To ward off insects, Permethrin may be applied to clothes which come in contact with the body. However, with the use of any chemical, thoroughly was the vegetable before using. Always mix chemical according to purpose and directions.

On the label it lists ingredients of permenthrin and inert ingredients. I checked the label more closely, but nothing else is listed

Yes, pyrethrins and pyrethroids are toxic to ladybugs (and multicolored Asian lady beetles) and their larvae.

Hi, the box lists an active ingredient of "Fenbendazole Granules". I do not see a listing of the inactive ingredients. The product worked very well for my dog.

The following is a list of ingredients as they appear on the front of the bottle. I'm not a chemist and have no idea what this stuff is. All I know is it's very effective in killing fleas. They also state 2 Month protection and "May be reapplied weekly"Why would you need to reapply it weekly, if it's good for 2 months protection?Active Ingredients:(S)-Methoprene 0.27%Pyrethins 0.20%Piperonyl Butoxide 0.37 %N-octyl Bicycloptene Dicarboximide 0.62%Other Ingredients 98.54%

As Robbin Rohner responded, "Active Ingredient DEET 98.11% other ingredients 1.89%"This is what my bottle says as well. This should mean that 98.11% of the product is DEET. If you are wondering about the purity of the active ingredient, you would need to contact the manufacturer.

Wonderful product !! ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS, NOT HARMFUL TO HUMANS AND PETS. I would highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. Although a professional exterminator assessed that I did not have an invasion of bed bugs but rather aphids, and I returned it as it was not needed, my son suffered an invasion of bed bugs from a neighbor and swears by this product ! Shipped quickly too, hope this helps you~ Lyric

The diatomaceous earth is only 77.69% of the mixture, the other 22.31% is "other" unspecified ingredients. The label DOES say it is BAITED Insect Control Powder. The front label has the "KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN" thing. The back label on the right side at very top reads "Precautionary Statements - HAZARDS TO HUMANS & DOMESTIC ANIMALS. Caution: moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid breathing dust. Use adequate ventilation. Wear suitable dusty mask when using this product during prolonged exposure." The "Starage & Disposal" says, "Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal." The next line reads "PESTICIDE Storage - Store in cool dry area away from heat or open flame and inaccessible to children and pets." There is even a warning not to reuse the container. Also from personal experience you Do Not want to expose electronics or polished plastic surfaces - it will damage the inside of electronics & ruin the finish on some plastic surfaces. There IS "food grade" 100% diatomaceous earth, but this product IS NOT it. Although it makes up the majority, whatever the "other" ingredients are qualifies it as a pesticide. If you want food grade make sure it plainly states it, it's not baited & it doesn't have warnings or pesticide storage & disposal cautionary statements.

The ingredients in the Bed Bug Killer is peppermint oil,sodium lauryl sulfate,citric acid,glycerin,oleric acid and water. I'm no chemical expert or a rocket scientist, only thing I can tell you that it worked for me.It had to work because I was watching my granddaughter who at the time was 3 months old and all day long because my daughter went back to work. All honesty I say she got bitten twice while in sleeping in my bed, which is the reason why I was determined to get rid of the bed bugs. She is now two years old and I've been bug free for over nine months if not more. This is what I did.I wash all my bedding in hot soapy water.While the bedding was off I flipped the mattress,sprayed it with the bug killer.I also vacuumed under and around the bed framed.I washed the bed frame with a Borax salution(1/2 cup of Borax to 1 gallon of water). I also use this salution to wash down any wood area in my bedroom.I did this once.but I sprayed everything at least three times a week for a couple of weeks.Sure it was a little work,but it was still cheaper than exterminator.I keep a bottle on hand just for kicks and giggles now. I would highly reccomend this product. Also if it helps,I am very health conscious and think this product is very safe.

Yes, this is not a pesticide in the normal way - it is Bacillus Thuringiensis a bacterium that infects those gnawing, chewing critters and kills them.It is harmless to animals, people, bees and other helpful insects. Very effective if used according to label instructions.

Pyrethrins are approved by the USDA for use around food stuffs. Being derived from crysthanthimums , They have been used for over a hundred years for killing and repelling flies and mosquito's. Read the wiki article. The warning about pregnant women is for very high doses.

I think "no insecticides" is one of the selling points. There is no indication of insecticide on the product lable. By law, they would have to list any insecticides on the lable. There is really no need for them. The glue works great.

active ingredient is 'imidacloprid', I did not copy %, although it is in the 4% range I believe. Several of my pine trees were oozing sap, the nursery says caused by pitch moth. It lays eggs in bark of tree, larvae hatch and bore into tree, You spray this insecticide solution around base of tree, roots absorb it and it is penetrates entire tree killing larvae. I only recently treated tree so have no recommendation at this time. BAR

I think it may be man made. Pyrethoids come from the chrysanthemum plant. I'm not for sure though.
