Bonide Products Houseplant Systemic Insect Control Granules, 8oz

I tried everything to get rid of fungus gnats for over a year. This, paired with a big bug zapper (also purchased on Amazon), seems to be the only thing that worked. Haven't seen gnats for a few months now. Thank you!

Works great to get those annoying bugs that keep flying up from the soil on my hoya plant.

It’s kind of bizarre and I see a lot of other reviews that mentioned the same thing. My bottle arrived yesterday and it was only 1/3 full. I did contact the manufacturer and they said that is how they ship it. It’s a shame because this stuff is great, but it is very wasteful and they could reduce the amount of plastic used by 60%. This nuked the gnat problem in my houseplants in <24 hours. The product itself is five out of five, but the packaging makes me remove a star.

When it comes to protecting your house plants from pesky insects, a reliable insect control granule can make a world of difference. After testing this product over several weeks in various infested pots around the house —I found it to be effective, easy to use, and generally good value for money, with a few considerations to keep in mind.Ease of ApplicationOne of the first things I appreciated about this product was how straightforward it was to apply. The granules spread evenly, whether by hand or using a simple garden spreader, and didn’t create dust clouds like some powdered insecticides tend to do. The instructions were clear, with recommended application rates and safety guidelines well explained on the packaging. For those new to using granular insecticides, this user-friendly approach is a big plus.Effectiveness Against InsectsPerformance-wise, the results were noticeable within a few days. The granules targeted a wide range of insects, including the little black guys we all love. I saw a sharp decline in ant activity within 72 hours already. The product claims to offer residual control for several months, and so far, it seems to hold up.Value for MoneyIn terms of cost, the product is competitively priced compared to similar products I've been using/trying over the years.Final ThoughtsOverall, the product delivers on its promises. Easy to apply, acts quickly against a broad spectrum of pests, and provides lasting protection when used as directed.

Kills fungus gnats. Completely. Eliminated my fungus gnat problem--I had tried hydrogen peroxide, nematodes, etc. This actually worked. DO NOT USE ON EDIBLE PLANTS, however. That is why this product is not available in garden stores.

This systemic pesticide is the only thing that will eradicate fungus gnats and thrips effectively. You can also use it in conunction with an insecticidal soap and mosquito dunks/bits, and do bottom watering for even better results. Redose every few months to keep them away for good. I have successfully eradicated a large thrip infestation and a huge fungus gnat infestation.

This is the best stuff! It is my go-to for insect prevention. I use it when I repot plants and bring them inside in the fall and then I treat them every three months while they are indoors. It is a no mess, easy to use systemic. It works great on things like palms and ivy that are susceptible to mites and scale. Great product.

I wanted this to work so much. I applied as directed and initially I was excited. It was working. 1 week later, the gnats are back with a vengeance! I love my plants. I guess I’ll have to try to change the soil completely. Didn’t have this problem before buying new soil. This was easy to use. I guess I just have a bigger problem.
