Description
Our natural and non-toxic formulation Protecting Bug Control Spray not only protects your houseplants from the most common pests such as whitefly, scale insect, red spider mite, greenfly and mildew diseases, it also contains additional plant-boosting nutrients to strengthen houseplants that have been weakened by previous attacks.
Some common pests to look out for include:
Mealy bugs
Probably the most common pest of houseplants, mealy bugs are sap-sucking insect that look like patches of white cotton wool. They are difficult to eradicate as they often hide in relatively inaccessible places, but our spray will help get them under control quickly.
Red spider mites
It’s difficult to see these sap-sucking pests by eye, but their damage is unmistakable. The upper sides of leaves will become mottled, before they shrivel up and die – fine webbing is sometimes visible.. They like hot, dry conditions so mist plants regularly to raise humidity.
Scale insects
Scale insects are sap-sucking creatures that look like tiny brown limpets. Over time, they form large colonies and will weaken their host. They usually appear on stems and under leaves.
For more useful information on dealing with plant pests, see our Advice & Care section on the website.
Suitable for use on all houseplants, combine with our other specialist Feeds and Mists for best results.
Our ingredients are 100% vegan with no animal ingredients or by-products and all of our oils are Leaping Bunny certified cruelty free.
