Does this product maintain its potency if it's stored away for a while? Shelf life?

I kept mine in a wooden box outside (in Las Vegas where the heat gets up to 118 degrees on a hot summer day). The bottle gets hot but I never noticed that it lost any potency.

Like most natural products, I'm sure there is an expiration date. I wouldn't trust any products for more than a couple years, sometimes less than a year. I don't know what you are using it for but I have not found it to be effective for my farm combating insects, especially and I'm assuming that the manufacture date is back in 2003. Also be careful if it is harmful to the bees which I'm not sure it is. Some people claim it works but that's using quite a bit of it.

I bought the Garlic Barrier to keep away white flies and and spider mites and ants. They also help keep other insects away from plants. I bought my over a year ago and it is working for me. Remember it needs to be mix with water. I took a sponge and placed it with some of the plants. My garden is in pots on my deck.

I have mine stored in a cool cabinet and I have had no problem with it remaining potent for a couple months.

I believe it has a shelf life of over one year, maybe more! ...that's my experience, works great each time.. I buy several each yr for my use.

I've kept it for at least a month with no problem. I don't see anything in the ingredients that would spoil.

This product doesn't have a shelf life that I'm aware of. The contents are under pressure. As long as the integrity of the container isn't compromised you should be good to go.

I am not an expert, but everything I have read said that the shelf life if stored properly is between 3 to 5 years.

Yes, it does keep well. There is a "best by date" on the bottom of bottle. I do not refrigerate the product, and have never found it to go bad.

As long as you keep it refrigerated -- I keep mine in the freezer until I transfer a new batch to a quart jar I keep in the fridge -- it will keep almost indefinitely. The loss of potency is minimal. I think my expiration date is some time in 2015. When you get your shipment, transfer it to Ziplock freezer bags -- two one-gallon bags will hold almost a whole 10-lb. order. Stick them in the freezer, and keep a smaller container in the fridge that you can get into easily every day. Works for me!

It is an oil and would last longer if refrigerated. Not sure on shelf life, but i figure a few months. I store mine in fridge and put a small amount in my bathroom for using.

According to the manufacturer, it doesn't need refrigeration since it's a fermented product. Since it's not "perishable" only the manufacturing date is listed on the product, so I don't think you have any worries about it going bad or losing its potency for a very long time.

Yes, the shelf life is very good and the life after application is also very good. My wife swears by it and has usd it for years!

Hello,This is a product that is best used while fresh. When properly stored, you may look forward to a shelf life of at least a week.Thank you!

We use it right away, so we don't know the shelf life. It works, but sometimes needs to be reapplied.

Hey JDD,I could not find a lot # or serial # or expiration date on my bottle. All I found was, on the side was stated, "Best Used within 2 years of purchase." So, the shelf life is about 2 years. I've used this stuff for several decades and it never seems to lose potency, even after 6-8 years. I hope that gives a view-point to consider. Thanks!

The shelf life is a long time. Depending on the brand and how it is stored it can last over a year. It should be stored in a cool dark place for the longest life.

Hi Sherbert,Thank you for your question. The shelf life of our supplement is a minimum of two years from the date of manufacturing, which is printed on the bottom of each bottle. We recommend refrigerating the product after opening as it helps to keep the ingredients "active" for a longer period of time.JohnTerraMax Pro

Specifically in the Drogheria & Alimentari, it is a date before which the flavor would be guaranteed at its peak. I have however actually used a few jars of this that were "lost" and were 6 years after their data - and their quality was not really affected. Of course, you should be careful to consider that it was at least stored in a dry environment as moisture could cause spoilage - but it would be noticeable. If it's within a couple years and shelf stored it should be ok IMHO.

This product will have a shelf life of 2 years. Please know that we carry several different lots at one time and cannot guarantee that you will receive the latest expiration date. We do guarantee the potency on the bottle until the expiration date although you may receive a later manufactured date
