Pro-Tips from Kent Countryside Nursery:
The Right Tool for the Job: Because this 4 lb. bag is a bulk volume package rather than a standalone shaker, we highly recommend using a mechanical hand-crank or bellows-style garden duster to apply it. This allows you to rapidly put down a fine, microscopic cloud of dust evenly across large vegetable plots or high into ornamental shrubs without wasting product.
Protect Our Local Pollinators: Spinosad is an incredibly safe option for organic gardening, but it can impact honeybees if they are sprayed directly while flying. Always apply your garden dust during the early morning or late evening hours when our local pollinators are safely back in their hives and not actively visiting your blossoms.
Target the Undersides: Hidden invaders like thrips, spider mites, and leafminers love to colonize the protected undersides of leaves. When dusting your crops, ensure your duster nozzle is angled upward to coat the bottoms of the foliage completely, where these pests do the most damage.
