Bonide Captain Jack's Dead Bug Brew Conc. 16 oz
When insect pests start invading your backyard vegetable plots, fruit orchards, or prized flower beds, you need a solution that is both incredibly tough on bugs and completely safe for organic gardening. Here at Kent Countryside, we highly recommend Bonide® Captain Jack's Deadbug Brew® Concentrate.
This 16 oz. liquid concentrate is powered by Spinosad, a naturally occurring soil bacterium that targets destructive chewing and leaf-eating insects while remaining environmentally friendly. Because it's a concentrate, it offers an economical way to mix up exactly what you need to protect everything from tender tomato plants and berry bushes to large ornamental shrubs across your property.

Pro-Tips from Kent Countryside Nursery:
Mix for Success: Since this is a liquid concentrate, you will need a standard compression pump sprayer or a hose-end sprayer to apply it. The general rule of thumb for most home garden applications is mixing 2 fl. oz. of concentrate per gallon of water, but always double-check the handy accordion label on the back of the bottle for your specific crop.
Protect Our Local Pollinators: Spinosad is an excellent choice for organic growers, but it can be harmful to honeybees if they are sprayed directly while flying. To keep our Hudson Valley pollinators safe, always spray your plants in the early morning or late evening when bees are tucked away in their hives and not actively foraging on your blossoms. Once the spray dries completely, it is safe for beneficial insects.
Excellent for Carmel Fruit Trees: If you are trying to grow apples, pears, or grapes in our local climate, you've likely battled codling moths, tent caterpillars, or leafminers. Deadbug Brew is one of the absolute best organic options to keep your home orchard clean without chemical residues.
